    Re: Mathematical proof that you can't build anything with LEGO bricks —Larry Pieniazek
   (...) He says "LEGOs" which makes his work suspect right there. :) Not very rigorous. The paper is from 2001... the piece palette has improved somewhat since then. But generally I'm not sure he's drawing valid inferences/conclusions. LEGO elements (...) (12 years ago, 27-Feb-12, to lugnet.general, FTX)

         Re: Mathematical proof that you can't build anything with LEGO bricks —Jordan Bradford
     (...) Me too. I love the little details like the frowny face next to the age range, and that the set number is the Number of the Beast. (12 years ago, 29-Feb-12, to lugnet.general, FTX)
   
        Re: Mathematical proof that you can't build anything with LEGO bricks —Don Rogerson
   (...) He would argue that the increase in the number of new types of pieces is actually an indication that the LEGO system is getting less flexible. But as you say, the system is designed so that every piece connects to at least one other piece (...) (12 years ago, 27-Feb-12, to lugnet.general, FTX)
