Mutual Negative Quines
This was inspired by Print a Negative of your Code and Golf a mutual quine.
Consider a rectangle of characters, that meet the following restrictions:
Consists solely of printable ASCII characters
Dimensions both greater than 1
Each row and each column contains at least ...
but if it was spam I'd at least expect the user profile to contain a link or something
@Optimizer btw, your 4x4 approach actually only needs 10 bytes, but I wasn't able to shorten it any further, or adapt it easily to print out to more characters on the 4x4 grid. one can also print an odd-numbered checkerboard with 8 bytes, but that doesn't fit into 3x3 ^^
(unfortunately my code for that doesn't work for even sizes)
at some point... I'd like to work on one of the simpler KotHs first (Tetromino Game or Underwater Survival Game), but before doing that I want to get my Tetris Tournament ready, and I can't be bothered to write the process communication right now :D
@Sp3000 As per the tag wiki, "If [the question] doesn't specify a character encoding to use for scoring, answers which use Unicode code points outside 0 to 255 should state the encoding used, and the score should include any penalty for flags or byte order mark required to get the interpreter/compiler to recognise the encoding."
@Optimizer I've got a 4x4 solution with only 10 nonspaces
hm, I just stumbled across the minmod function (again)... I think it would be a nice candidate for a simple code golf. it's a function of two real arguments. if they have the same sign, it returns the input with the smaller modulus, and if they don't, it returns 0.

There is definitely lots of golfing possible, but I wanted to post it first after getting it to work completely.
Look ma! No scrollbars!

Shortest Minmod Function
code-golfmath
The minmod function is a variant of the familiar min, which appears in slope-limiting high-resolution schemes for partial differential equations. For two variables, minmod(a,b) is defined as:
0, if a and b have different signs.
a, if a and b have the sam...
