I care more about genetic manipulation than all the others, and I’m pretty sure that’s a branch of biology. So… Yeah. Bio #1.
Nonsense. An astrophysicist wouldn’t be caught dead hanging out in public with their dealer and somebody who thinks counting past 1 is pointless.
(/s but also shit talking is fun so pop off if this made your blood boil and you’ve got a witty retort)
Be nice to the computer scientist! They wrote the program y’all space nerds can use to calculate orbital paths around your mom.
(how’s that lol)
At least the program can run in polynomial time. They tried to do the same for yall stamp collectors moms but quickly realized that problem was NP hard!
(Perfect, no notes)
Computer scientists? Sure, maybe. But all four of us will join together to resent the engineers for designing systems around extrapolated power law fits and lack of rigor (and totally not because they are higher paid or anything).
Four of you!? That’s practically an army!!
I notice how geologists are not even in the conversation.
It’s because we are all outside playing in the dirt.
You should see what the archaeologists are up to
y’all are my favorite. rocks are cool.
But how did the rocks you find TASTE?
I’ve always appreciated that as a prior valid qualification method in field geology as a biologist.
Licking our cultures, buffers, and samples tends to be frowned upon.
i mean we used to have mouth pipetting and DuPont chemists smoking in the lab and noticing the taste of their experiments on the cigs lol
Yeah I had an old chemistry professor of mine would habitually turn his head sideways when working in the hood. Lol
The worst ones are… radioactive, or asbestiform. So…
Kyanite is harmless but nasty.
Our geoscience department lords above lowly biopesants by 1 floor. We like to throw rotting fruit at them below us, while heckling “Culture deez nuts.”
We once found a group of bio students on a field trip.
We pranked up their van and took incriminating pictures.
And they are better for it
Xkcd really do have a panel for everything.
Computer scientist here. I definitely do not think I’m better than a biologist.
biochemist. i think I’m the worst lol
I was actually on track to becoming a biochemist before I changed to computer science
you absolutely made the right choice. i regret not switching to CS
Chemist here: yep.
Aw man :c
Biology is just applied chemistry. Chemistry is just applied physics. Physics is just applied maths. Everything is maths.
This is one of my favorite xkcds
Math is just simplified physics. Physics is just simplified chemistry. Chemistry is just simplified biology.
Chemistry is just simplified biology.
Eh, for organic, maybe. For inorganic not really. And all the crystal stuff is just physics we appropriated. And the rest of materials science is rightfully ours as well and one day we shall take it back from the engineers.
I was thinking about that and I decided I didn’t give a fuck
And holding up that entire stack is philosophy.
Not wrong at all, as true today as when it was first said.
