Chem didn’t even get to speak. Fitting.
Chemistry: “So anyways, here’s Zyklon B”
In chemistry they flip a coin to decide if their next product will improves mankinds quality of life tenfold or be the reason the Geneva convention needs a rewriting
We call this the Haber Flip.
Title text: I’M SORRY, FROM YOUR YEARS OF CONDESCENDING TOWARD THE ‘SQUISHY SCIENCES’, I ASSUMED YOU’D BE A LITTLE HARDER.
As a former social sciences and history student, I sure wish people would actually want to use those fields’ results. Without trying to make things worse instead of better.
I appreciate that Randall Munroe isn’t a part of the Feynman cult. Angela Collier did a great video about it a few months ago.
Uh-oh. As a shallow level science lover I’ve always liked and respected Feynman and how he has presented science to layfolk like myself. I’m expecting some disappointing information when I dig into this video tomorrow.
I came here to post this video, because it’s really great. For anyone who cares to separate the myth from the reality: it’s worth your time. She’s honest, and realistic, without being mean or hyperbolic. (Ok, but maybe a liiiiittle sarcasm, as a treat!)
Chem just sitting there fucking sweating
Edit: also biologist cant talk considering nazi experiments and unit 731
No, because those are not treated like heroes in their disciplines.
Oh true fair point
Why Chem don’t get to participate?
The point of the comic was made, and going on would just drag out the joke.
The comic could equally be made with the chemists fighting famine.
Because of World War 1.
Bio was also later disqualified because of WWIII … or was it WWIV? or WWV? … I forget but it was one of them anyway.
