Hydraulic Press Square Packing
PREVIOUS BEST S<3.877084 (GENSANE, 2004) NEW RECORD S<3.40 I’VE SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVED ON THE SOLUTION TO THE N=11 SQUARE PACKING PROBLEM BY USING A HYDRAULIC PRESS.
A comic compares a neat square-packing arrangement with a crushed, chaotic arrangement made using a hydraulic press. The joke is that compressing the squares technically produces a smaller area and a “new record,” humorously abusing optimization rules. It works as a reaction to solving a problem through brute force or an absurd shortcut.
