People are dunking on the fact that "mathematically optimal" is meaningless in this situation.
Even Lopez-Alt suggests, "It matters far more for winning internet debates and solving interesting math problems than it does for cooking."
- tptacek 1y agoThe mathematical verification doesn't matter, but: * Radial is more convenient than the classic horizontal cut. * Radial with an origin below the cutting board is a better outcome than naive radial with almost zero extra effort. All this to say: it was worth figuring that out!
- account42 1y agoExcept: * The spacing and angle of your cuts is going to vary much more if you are doing something more complex than top down cuts negating any gain in consistency. * The outcome of the final dish isn't really any better so it doesn't matter at all.
