I think you can do ever so slightly better by moving the pink dot to the highest pip on the 2x2 green cylinder - it extends a little beyond the pip, so you'd gain about a millimeter that way.

If it's not cheating to have parts not completely attached, you could maybe even balance the pink dot on top of the green cylinder for an extra 3-4mm.

if you dont have to be attached then place it under the blue brick

I had exactly those two ideas, even before looking at the solution proposed in the article :)

Congrats to Evan Williams on the success of Medium.

What does this have to do with the post.

Absolutely nothing.

It takes a really hardened individual to completely ignore the beauty of a father spending time with his daughter and building things with her in order to talk shit about Evan Williams and Medium.
