Comments by "Kim Jong-un" (@SupremeLeaderKimJong-un) on "The Genius Design of Apple Park" video.

  1. Frederick Law Olmsted being the founder of American landscape architecture is no joke. Thanks to him and Calvert Vaux, Central Park was born. Olmsted also worked on landscape for Niagara Falls State Park (country's oldest state park), the Biltmore Estate, and even the US Capitol. Apple Park was also designed with earthquake safety in mind! Modeled after similar ones in Japan, it's one of the ONLY buildings in the US to use base isolation against earthquakes. Meaning that it should survive all but the biggest California tremors. It consists of 692 large, stainless-steel saucers located two stories underground that can shift as far as four feet in any direction. Quite impressive! That being said, I don't blame Apple employees for not liking an open-pod concept. An open-pod concept doesn't encourage working together, it encourages dillydallying. In a personal office, you're focused on you and your goals. As you should be. For those who work more efficiently independently, this is a nightmare.
