The Data Knight
Here’s a little bonus comic for the weekend. If you don’t get it, it’s either because you’ve never seen one of the best films in the history of best films, or because you’ve never pursued an academic career. The first is sad; the second – not so much.

Quote: Two kinds of intellect
There are then two kinds of intellect: the one able to penetrate acutely and deeply into the conclusions of given premises, and this is the precise intellect; the other able to comprehend a great number of premises without confusing them, and this is the mathematical intellect. The one has force and exactness, the other comprehension. Now the one quality can exist without the other; the intellect can be strong and narrow, and can also be comprehensive and weak.
