Collection of Science Jokes P2

In summary: Usually it's been commentated as being 'real'. Actually the joke dates back to the 30's and whether it's real or not cannot be said anymore.

A police officer caught Mr. Heisenberg for exceeding the speed limit.
- Mr. Heisenberg, do you know how fast you were driving?
- Yes, and I know exactly where I am.
- So how do you explain your behavior?
- I have cancer, and I have to take care of my family.

Nobody gets #918? Not even chemists? Maybe I should move it to the Lame Jokes thread. :frown:

Is it a Breaking Bad allusion? (I never watched it.)

It took me a while - like @mjc123 I didn't follow Breaking Bad and the connection didn't immediately occur.
 
  • #925
Yes, it's Breaking Bad. I thought there will be more fans here. :)

I am taking a Python for analytics MicroMasters course through edX and Georgia Tech. The cartoon is an obvious exaggeration, but there are times when I'm watching the lessons, thinking "This is simple". Then I get the homework and ... "Whoa! Where did this come from?"

You could do similar for Bayes. "My a posteriori confidence that Bayes was born in 1701 is around 30%."

the first one on that page ....

how full is glass.jpg


usually has an engineers' view
"The glass is obviously double the size that it needs to be"

sometimes a "drinker" view

"Whatever, there's clearly room for more beer"
