Minimum effort Memes

When they say a PhD gives you mastery of your field, they weren't kidding! This mathematician has clearly calculated the optimal snow-clearing strategy: just do the absolute minimum required area to satisfy the equation. The ratio of cleared snow to total roof area perfectly illustrates the principle of mathematical efficiency—why solve the entire problem when you can define your own parameters? Reminds me of those exam questions where we'd write "assume a spherical cow in vacuum" to make the calculations easier!
