Itโ€™s a very flat cylinder, but a cylinder nevertheless.

[-] ericisshort@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago

Cylinders prefer to be called thicc circles.

[-] Evil_Shrubbery@lemmy.zip 4 points 10 months ago

Like a round toast with stuff on it

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Let's face it, pizza is an open face sandwich.

Except the mathematical variable name for radius is r. Also for a cylinder you use the term height, not thickness. Which is called h in math. So by all accounts it should be called Pirrh.

Edit: Also also, with this logic you could've just called a pizza "Volume". Would've saved you a lot of time :/

[-] Barthosw@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

Pizza gets better as "a" approaches zero.

[-] wiikifox@pawb.social 9 points 10 months ago

But if a = 0 then PiZZa = PiZZ * 0 = 0

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 12 points 10 months ago

But it's approaching zero. It never becomes zero. ๐Ÿ˜™๐Ÿ‘Œ

One molecule-thin crust pizza coming up!

[-] nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca 5 points 10 months ago

One molecule is thick af, with no extra Cs. Sexy Limits don't stop just because our feeble reality has size limits.

Thin crust + thin toppings.

[-] Liz@midwest.social 3 points 10 months ago

Extremely wrong. The ideal A:Z ratio is more like 1:4.

The a is for altura, which is height in Spanish and therefore probably also in Italian

[-] subwoofer@lemmy.gockandgum.party 4 points 10 months ago

In Italian it's "altezza" but in this case the better word is "spessore" which means thickness

Here I thought it was because of Personal Investigator Z.Z. Andersen

[-] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 7 points 10 months ago

This is the absolute ONLY case where it's acceptable to call a pizza a pie. That being said, well done to the memesmith ๐Ÿ˜€

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

But- and hear me out- what if you are a stereotypical Italian chef with a big mustache and a chef's hat and you send it out to the customer? You gotta say, "at's-a good pizza pie!"

[-] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 5 points 10 months ago

Good point, but I'm actually not that. I'm starting to suspect that very few people actually are!

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

At's-a sad.

[-] TheRealKuni@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Never had deep dish, I take it?

[-] VikingHippie@lemmy.wtf 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

That's not really pizza OR pie..

[-] victorz@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

It's actually a pie though. It has a surrounding crust casing as well as a filling, which qualifies it as a pie according to Wikipedia.

A deep dish pizza and a calzone are both technically pies as far as I can tell. They have a surrounding casing of crust. A flat pizza would not be a pie.

Agreed. This guy pies.

It would be 2PiZA, since ZZ is Z squared

EDIT: my bad, I was thinking of circumference

[-] Crozekiel@lemmy.zip 6 points 10 months ago

Wat? It is supposed to be squared though...

[-] reattach@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

That would be the surface area of the crust, not the volume

2 Pizza? That's even better.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

It's a 2-for-1 deal! Like Little Caesar's! Pizza pizza.

[-] MotoAsh@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

The parenthesis are pointless. Exponents go first, but multiplication doesn't care about order, and there is only multiplication going on.

pi of Pie (with ZZ toppings) is meme squared

[-] jaschen@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 10 months ago

Isn't the Z axis vertical?

[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 26 points 10 months ago
[-] Aurenkin@sh.itjust.works 6 points 10 months ago

Indeed, a common mistake for newcomers to the field.

[-] PM_ME_VINTAGE_30S@lemmy.sdf.org 13 points 10 months ago

It's typically vertical, but you can name your variables however you want.

[-] MacNCheezus@lemmy.today 4 points 10 months ago

The Z axis is usually used for depth, so it's going to be perpendicular to whatever your frame of reference (i.e. projection plane) is.

If it's upright in space, like a computer screen, the Z axis will be horizontal. If it's a sheet of paper on a desk, then yes, I suppose it could be argued to be vertical instead.

[-] CheesyFox@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

in lots of 3D software Z is horizontal

I've definitely seen Z as the forward/backward axis before
