When you miss one important constraint in your CAD project.

Oh man I felt this.

Kinda forgot the sides being parallel part. Like missing a step in assembling IKEA furniture, its not gonna turn out right.

[-] SomeoneSomewhere@lemmy.nz 81 points 5 days ago

You don't normally need to specify that the sides are parallel if you specify four right angles.

[-] finitebanjo@lemmy.world 15 points 5 days ago

Also pretty sure definition of a shape requires only one enclosed or contiguous area.

[-] angrystego@lemmy.world 23 points 5 days ago

This one is enclosed and contiguous though, the lines of the triangle end where the circular line starts. (The rest is just a drafting residue.)

Wouldn't the angles need to be interior?

[-] Maven@lemmy.zip 180 points 5 days ago

They are all interior to the meme

[-] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 15 points 5 days ago

This meme seems to be in a 16:9 ratio making it a rectangle.

[-] fahfahfahfah@lemmy.billiam.net 54 points 5 days ago

also the sides must be straight

[-] Maven@lemmy.zip 181 points 5 days ago

It's 2024 now... Not everyone has to be straight anymore!

[-] marcos@lemmy.world 23 points 5 days ago

If you want to claim you are a square, you need.

[-] stupidcasey@lemmy.world 15 points 5 days ago

WOW! just wow, do you hear yourself?

This is merely a projection of a square on the surface of a cone projected onto a plane.

A square has all right angles inside the structure. This thing has two inside and two outside.

Easy there Diogenes.

[-] Siethron@lemmy.world 33 points 5 days ago

This has an infinite number of sides

This is a square in polar coordinates

[-] EpeeGnome@lemm.ee 25 points 4 days ago

A square? A square?! Wake up sheeple! That things not even a rombus! Don't you see the lies? Look at the lines! Look! Not all rhombuses are squares, but all squares are rhombuses! All squares are rhombuses and look at this thing they try to call a square. Where are the parallel lines? There's got to be parallel lines, don't you see, or then it's not a rombus and all squares are rhombuses. Don't forget that, don't let them take that fact from you and perpetuate their geometric lies. Does no one even remember what a rombus is? This is, this is basic geometry here that you should have learned in middle school or elementary school, but then you just forget it, and let people trick you with these misleading definitions and fancy diagrams but you have to remember that a Square. Is. A. Rombus.

[-] OlPatchy2Eyes@slrpnk.net 2 points 3 days ago

You have shown me the truth

[-] cram42@mander.xyz 5 points 4 days ago

And all rhombus are parallelograms. By definition opposing sides must be parallel.

This is what AI would give you after countless tries strating with a triangle and having gone up the Pentagon and down to two pairs of unconnected parallel lines.....but what if all equally sized lines were connected? Bam! This

[-] Hackworth@lemmy.world 14 points 5 days ago

Fun Fact: It is very difficult to get any of the image generators to make a pentagon.

[-] AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world 11 points 4 days ago

I thought this couldn't be true, so using one of the newer models (4bit flux) I told it to make a 5 sided star, and then put lines around the outside

lol this is very weird, did they forbid it from looking at pentagons in the training data or something? it can't do The Pentagon either, it gives it 8-12 sides instead

[-] Hackworth@lemmy.world 6 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

I don't really know, but I think it's mostly to do with pentagons being under-represented in the world in general. That and the specific way that a pentagon breaks symmetry. But it's not completely impossible to get em to make one. After a lot of futzing around, o1 wrote this prompt, which seems to work 50% of the time with FLUX [pro]:

An illustration of a regular pentagon shape: a flat, two-dimensional geometric figure with five equal straight sides and five equal angles, drawn with black lines on a white background, centered in the image.

[-] AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world 1 points 2 days ago

quick test, with that prompt and flux schnell gguf 4 bit again:

  • pentagon: 1
  • hexagon: 9
  • heptagon: 2
  • octagon: 7
  • decagon: 1

it seems a lot stupider than pro lol

Out of 4 lines

[-] tiddy@sh.itjust.works 23 points 5 days ago

270°≠90°

You could say a regular square has 4 270° exterior angles

[-] LarmyOfLone@lemm.ee 23 points 5 days ago

Now make a square out of squiggly yarn

String theorists claim this is the true shape of spacetime!

That's a Pac-lapse.

thinking outside the square

[-] Randelung@lemmy.world 2 points 3 days ago

The 90 degree angles are supposed to be on the inside. Which in this case would mean at least the same side. Otherwise the 360 degree rule is broken and it's not a rectangle, much less a square.

[-] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 15 points 5 days ago

HOW ELMO, HOW?!?
