Labelling pieces using bits of pineapple is such an obvious comment bait that I'm fully on board with it.

Truly a mathematician's sort of pizza; reducing it to a bare minimum set of ingredients that have been known to make up a pizza (even if they're in an unconventional form), calling it a previously solved problem, and not even bothering to bake it :p

Love how Brady jumped right in for -1/12, implying that if you take this algorithm to infinity you wind up with a pizza cut into 11/12 regions. Get the Sixty Symbols squad on this, I smell a Nobel prize for topological defects in higher dimensional pizzas!

I know its not the point of the video at all, but that library is just absolutely beautiful, you have my envy over being able to see it in person.
