The do start as circles! Bees spin on their butt laying the honeycomb. Mechanical pressure mashes them into hexagons.
And thats why you sometimes find pentagons, its just squished circles.

You mean they skipped 4. Pointed polygons and chosen a hexagon instead. What’s their problem with right angles.
C’mon man, don’t be a square.
Less volume per unit of surface area
Interesting. I haven’t really connected hexagons and circles like this.
It’s a whole thing in mathematics, in two or three dimensions, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Close-packing_of_equal_spheres
Fascinating.
Indeed.
Bees would be the best goddamn software architects…
