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.

This is a square in polar coordinates

[-] EpeeGnome@lemm.ee 23 points 1 day 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.

You have shown me the truth

[-] cram42@mander.xyz 5 points 1 day ago

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

YES. YES! A square is a rombus is a parallelogram! You see it too! There are no parallels in this diagram, only lies and trickery!

[-] Siethron@lemmy.world 33 points 1 day ago

This has an infinite number of sides

When you miss one important constraint in your CAD project.

Oh man I felt this.

270°≠90°

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

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 13 points 1 day ago

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

[-] AdrianTheFrog@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day 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 5 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours 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.

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

[-] naught101@lemmy.world 5 points 1 day ago

Those arc sides are parallel in polar coordinates.

[-] SomeoneSomewhere@lemmy.nz 76 points 2 days ago

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

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

[-] multifariace@lemmy.world 1 points 12 hours ago

Parallelogram.

Wouldn't the angles need to be interior?

[-] Maven@lemmy.zip 175 points 2 days ago

They are all interior to the meme

[-] fahfahfahfah@lemmy.billiam.net 52 points 2 days ago

also the sides must be straight

[-] Maven@lemmy.zip 181 points 2 days ago

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

Now make a square out of squiggly yarn

String theorists claim this is the true shape of spacetime!
