How inefficient, I could fit 100 squares in there easily.
Only 100? Pathetic, with my improved algorithm I could get at least 121 squares.
Psh I could fit like 1 square in there. Tryhards
Yeah, but you still have 4 edges in a circle. Just make a circle in the circle. Now you basically have an edible plate.
Like what, a platewaffle? Are you some kind of breakfast wizard?
Right? Wake me up when we reach a 7 nm lithographic waffle process.
I forget what this shape is actually a solution for but it is very funny
It’s the square packing in a square for n = 17.
yeah that’s a wild rabbit hole to go down, the shaprs are either extremely satisfying or extremely distressing, there is no in-between.
Mathematicians: makes something with zero practical applications
Waffles:
Took me a while lol
Oh my God, I fucking love this. I mean, I absolutely hate that this is the optimal way to pack 17 squares into a larger square such that the size of the larger square is minimised. However, I love that someone went to the effort of making a waffle iron plate for this. High effort shitposts like this give me life
