Quick, upvote before Americans wake up! (Math should check out, maximum sphere that can be carved out of a cube has 47.6% of its volume).

Edit: 47.6% is the difference in mass, not the ball volume. Sorry I’m stupid

I would. But was told no budget for a dolly.

People in the comments are taking this too literally, focusing on big-dealing the mathematics of it, instead of just enjoying the irony.

I think 4.76kg would be the weight of the remaining mass if you removed a sphere of the same diameter from the cube, rather than the sphere.

Normally, I'd agree w/ tou, but speaking as someone w/ upper body damage, 10kg is an impossible weight to lift.

Oh shit. Yup, it’s the difference

Do you lot not see that this doesn't represent working smarter but rather working faster by... cutting corners? *fingerguns*

>47.6%. If the density is uniform, then mass == volume, right?

Too late, early rising American. Take an upvote anyway. Nothing wrong with them metric system. Old habits are hard to break, especially-

Taking the time to carve the ball out after pushing it that far says fair a bit about the headstart they had over the others.

I like how he decided to painstakingly carve away the cube instead of putting it on a cart or a truck

5 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Solution. roll a big sphere to the destination and then carve it into the cube

5 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Should have used a dolly on the cube

5 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

A version of the original picture that isn't stupid would use a cart to move your 10kg cheese cube, rather than pushing it across the ground

so he can make a sphere but not a wheel...or like 4 with a bar between and some rope so.it could go zoom zoom. Not a smart man

Hell, don't apologise! ... I have almost no idea how you calculated volume from square to sphere... maths is not my thing.

Usually the ones to "cut corners" are people who stand to gain the most not people trying to make it easier....

5 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Why not attach some of those round discs to the four corners of the bottom of the cube? I think those things are called "wheels".

5 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

The time spent to turn that cube into a sphere should have made him way behind anyways

I've worked with people who had that picture as a motivation.. they were always the dumbest fuckers and cut corners on everything..

5 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 2

They cut so many corners, that they lost 47.6% of the product.

It's most of the workforce, in my experience. Call "neglecting your duties" -> "working smarter", and you're no longer a villain.

Why would someone push a 10 kg cube over the ground, let alone carve it in a sphere? Lift and carry that shit, 10kg is really not that heavy

Because that's socialism. I am not responsible for your inability to take care of your cube. /s

If they polish their floor frequently, pushing it probably wouldn't be difficult either. <.< >.>

Maybe it is just 10kg but to big to carry?

5 years ago | Likes 13 Dislikes 1

The bigger the object, the bigger the buoyancy, every m^3 of volume reduces the weight (not mass) by 1,2kg. At little over 8 m^3 it floats.

But you can see from the image it is not.

Originally defined as the weight of a litre of water, it is now defined via the plank constant, since mass is a form of energy

Metric is this sort of circular system of weights and measures because reality is fake, and the coding is really sloppy.

its shorthand for King, the standard unit of weight in most monarchies, so a lot of Europe. those cubes weigh as much as 1 king

But some kings were heavier than others…. And isn’t that kind of sexist considering the Queen?

yes, it has to be updated regularly, and varies by country. for queens some use the queen's weight, others use the former king
