Same is true for humans too. About their personality. Constantly changing and you will never meet the same person twice in that sense.
replyEvery geography has a timestamp.
replyI get the latitude, longitude, and they added time. But what was the fourth dimension? Or third rather, because the post assumption is that time was the fourth added.
replyI think the closest thing to the fourth dimension in this context is money. If used correctly, it alters ones experience meaningfully by altering what's in one's proximity.
replyFor example, I could be living in a polluted region, but if I have sufficient money, I can ensure the air I breathe indoors is very clean.
Altitude is the third dimension, but I presume you knew that.
reply"Geography is three dimensional" doesn't correctly communicate the time dimension.
Hmm I thought that, but we don't really live in a 3D world (or use the altitude parameter in a very meaningful way in life) so I wondered whether there's something else I was missing.
