Beer contains CO2? We'd better drink it all before it contributes to climate change...fresh_42 said:
This forum discussion centers around a collection of science jokes, particularly those involving mathematics and physics. Notable jokes include a mathematician with a dog and cow discussing knot theory, and a play on Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. The humor often relies on advanced concepts such as the Jones polynomial and topological invariants, showcasing a blend of wit and scientific terminology. The conversation also touches on the cultural significance of these jokes within the scientific community.
PREREQUISITESMathematicians, physicists, educators, and anyone interested in the intersection of humor and science will benefit from this discussion.

That looks so much more exactly the same !Ibix said:Edit: here.
