I find the simulation and visualization of the same topic (albeit for US only) by DataFlow much more engaging and comprehensible. The project is based on data of a US survey.

- ffsm8 1y agoPretty entertaining to watch the bubbles change color/activity but be unable to go to their designated area because they're unable to break away from the bulk of their neighbors. Like peer pressure, but really just an artifact of the chosen technology for the visualization
- yard2010 1y agoIsn't rl peer pressure also an artifact of the chosen "tech", or in other words - an artifact of perspective
- pona-a 1y agoI think something similar can be done on the world-wide scale with MTUS (Multinational Time Use Study) data [0], with some creative interpolation. From what I gathered, OP's simulation is more of a live Fermi estimate, so it would be interesting to see the same done with greater precision.

- jrussino 1y agoI find it neat that the simulation appears to "pulse" almost like a heartbeat, because so many of our activities are tied to the clock and state changes disproportionately occur on the hour or half-hour. It's especially noticeable when using the "fast" playback option. How different this would have looked before the invention of mechanized timekeeping!
