This legitimately upsets me.
… Y’see, now, y’see, I’m looking at this, thinking, squares fit together better than circles, so, say, if you wanted a box of donuts, a full box, you could probably fit more square donuts in than circle donuts if the circumference of the circle touched the each of the corners of the square donut.
So you might end up with more donuts.
But then I also think… Does the square or round donut have a greater donut volume? Is the number of donuts better than the entire donut mass as a whole?
Hrm.
HRM.
A round donut with radius R₁ occupies the same space as a square donut with side 2R₁. If the center circle of a round donut has a radius R₂ and the hole of a square donut has a side 2R₂, then the area of a round donut is $πR 12 -$ $πr 22 . The area of a square donut would be then 4R 12 - 4R 22 . This doesn’t say much, but in general and throwing numbers, a full box of square donuts has more donut per donut than a full box of round donuts. The interesting thing is knowing exactly how much more donut per donut we have. Assuming first a small center hole ($ $R 2 =$ $R 1 /4) and replacing in the proper expressions, we have a 27,6% more donut in the square one (Round: 15$ $π$ $R 12 /16$ $≃ 2,94$ $R 12, square: 15$ $R 12 /4 = 3,75$ $R 12). Now, assuming a large center hole ($ $R 2 = 3 R 1 /4) we have a 27,7% more donut in the square one ($ $Round: 7 π R 12 /16 ≃ 1,37 R 12, square: 7 R 12 /4 = 1,75 R 12). This tells us that, approximately, we’ll have a 27% bigger donut if it’s square than if it’s round.$
$tl;dr: Square donuts have a 27% more donut per donut in the same space as a round one.$
god i love this site
can’t argue with science. Heretofore, I want my donuts square.
more donut per donut

He was really poor growing up, and had a life of difficulties, but then had a couple of big hits as a performer and became quite wealthy well before being invited to run for congress.
He didn’t miss a single session of congress, fought for education projects and presented bills on the culture commission.

Nick Fury looks mighty smug when he leads Jane Foster down the aisle.

Why do you people have to make everything about race???

Long answer: White Europeans decided to colonize the rest of the world. They enslaved, massacred, segregated, displaced, tortured, disenfranchised, and raped other racial groups. They stole land, resources, and art. They put other races in zoos and death camps. They destroyed written and pictorial history. They suppressed the religions of other races. They dehumanized us. They refused to teach the history of these atrocities in their schools. They refused to acknowledge the achievements of other races. They used the theory of their racial superiority as their excuse. All social institutions reflect this history. All affected racial groups are still feeling the aftereffects of this. So it tends to come up a lot.
Short answer: Please shut up.
