Adequacy : Moderate and appropriate nature. In the early days of the Roman Empire , Emperor Tiberius hosted a grand feast and invited an inventor. The inventor presented a glass as a gift, and the emperor inquired about its features. When the inventor claimed that the glass was unbreakable , the emperor dropped it on the floor. Only one side was dented, and the emperor touched that spot, restoring it to its original condition. Astonished, the emperor asked the inventor, “Have you ever taught anyone how to make this glass?” The inventor replied, “I did not tell anyone.” Then the emperor ordered his execution because if the recipe for the glass were known, the value of the emperor’s gold and silver treasures would plummet. No matter how excellent something is, it can be the worst depending on the situation and context. That’s why adequacy is essential. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
Initially, humans could not draw as they perceived. It was only after the discovery of perspective that they could accurately draw what they saw. Perspective was first applied to performance stages in Greece during the 5th century BC, and it was not until the 15th century that the Italian architect Brunelleschi succeeded in expressing a three-dimensional perspective on a two-dimensional plane. In the long history of humanity, the period of applying perspective is quite brief. Perspective painting represents a virtual depiction of reality . In other words, the first instance of visualizing something virtual is perspective. People speak as if the metaverse is a significant industry today, but the virtual realization through perspective began long before the digital era. Currently, it’s only visually represented digitally. Understanding the essence of this can help you mitigate risk, even as times and circumstances evolve. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
