Inferring location through intuition and logic
2020 Puebla (COVID)Today I put Madrid on a website that “drove you through” the city with the radio station on.

I looked at the streets, it was outskirts Madrid but I couldn’t pinpoint at the particular location. At some point it climbed a hill that looked exactly like las Tetas de Vallecas. Of course it’s there, I’ve seen that curbside, I thought.
Yet, in the landscape four tall buildings were revealed. Wait a minute, that is not possible, that is a view from either the west or the east side of Madrid, because from the south these would be viewed in a single line, and because there are no hills on the east side, I concluded it must be on the west.
This is an example of innacurate intuition and hurry to note that this is not a war against intuition, it is on how to work out the verification of intuition itself.
