(no title)

There's another great one from SMBC about how to tell the difference between a math enthusiast from a mathematician.

I won't try to find it since I'm on mobile, but it's just as good.

About time a Maddox reference made it on here! Though is not quite the Gladwell type, his insights are interesting and had quite a few geeks visiting his site. Matter of fact it was a popular pastime during our CS Lab when our brains were fried from coding.

So, sure this stuff isn't science, but the Gladwell types also give "cultural context" to many geeks I know.

Do you mean this one? It's the only one I can quickly find that includes "math enthusiast" and "mathematician", though it's not exactly "how to tell the difference". http://www.smbc-comics.com/index.php?db=comics&id=2320

Yeah that's the one! I probably should have just googled for it, but yep, that's it. My memory was a bit hazy.
