I learnt that concave mirror + sun is a bad idea, but if I was signing off that building I never would have considered it unless it was on the checklist ๐Ÿ˜†

I mean I'm not even STEM background but at some point I would have said okay so this 38-storey concave mirror is ponting where?

Omg looking up how many storeys it is I discovered it isn't even the only one of these things this architect perpetrated! He had another one in Vegas nicknamed the Death Ray. Both of them had to have remedial work done to protect people.
