Dishwashers as the New Tetris
You’ll have probably engaged in this conversation before, but here you have the answer: dishwashing is more efficient than handwashing.
However, that’s no "the conversation". This morning I was listening to the radio (a morning show) when it was brought up the subject about who loads more efficiently the diswasher: men or women. I’m not going to enter the debate, since I haven’t proved it scientifically (good excuse!); besides, all know men do. 
No, seriously, thanks to a Numb3rs episode (sorry, I lost track, I’m not even watching it anymore since I haven’t time, although I’d like to), this morning the answer to that trouble should’ve been let’s knapsack it. We’ll need to make some assumptions (i.e. all our ware is a box of different sizes) but we’ll get there, to the optimal solution, and with that the gaps that will allow us to measure the performance of both men and women.
Sorted!
