This only happened because they laid them in rows of 5-4-5-4.
LOL you can see how the back is darker and has this curve. Oven not heating as it should
I don’t think I’ve ever seen any household grade ovens really provide even heat, maybe if you use them with the rotating fan thing, but certainly not in standard mode. You need to spend the big bucks on professional kitchen grade stuff for that.

I wonder what the optimal packing of 17 hexagons looks like
I just woke up with my phone on this. My assumption is that remembering that optimal packing thing just caused me to pass out, presumably to protect myself.
Does it haunt your dreams the same way it haunts mine?
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Should the target area be square or should it also be a hexagon?
I’ve legit been thinking about this since i posted the comment lol. I think the target area should probably be a minimal regular hexagon, but I honestly dont have the mathematical chops to figure it out myself or to know which would be more interesting.
Intuition tells me to either try to reduce the problem to like convex hull or figure out a reasonable way to generate random packings and just monte carlo it a few million times for a close to optimal solution. A reasonable way to generate random packings feels like it would be way harder to implement than it sounds

Close hexagonal packing. Rigid cylinders will approximate this as well.

Voronoi cookies!
I love making chocolate chip cookies, and have refined my technique so a batch of dough fills my two baking sheets perfectly without them smooshing together. The two tricks are using a little more flour and baking soda than the recipe says, so they’re a little fluffier and don’t spread out so much, and consistent ball size.
I just fill the pan and use cookie cutters after they’re baked.
I eat the scraps.
btw anyone know what the onset signs of diabetes is?
Can also put the tray with cookies on it in the freezer, that can help keep them from spreading as much! Then throw it in the oven from frozen like. Or…firmed up like.
Interesting, but just using a little more flour and baking soda seems simpler.
I do both! I like very thick cookies though.
That pan can fit 21 cookies
It can clearly fit 2⁵ hexagonal cookies!
Isn’t it 2⁵?
Edit: disregard, I’m clearly blind. Or dumb. Or both.
Hexagons are a internal function of the universe

Fuck reading instructions. Amirite???
