Hey, I’ve been mulling over how combinatorial geometry could cut fabric waste in garment making—do you see any ways that might help with biodegradable textiles?
Yeah, if you map every panel to a convex lattice and use tiling algorithms you can reduce waste to near zero, then you can pair that with a fully biodegradable fiber—no cutting a single extra inch means you cut the ecological footprint too.
That sounds promising, but have you considered the computational complexity of the tiling algorithm, and how it scales with larger panels? Let's dig into the math behind that next.
