"This is of course related to why the famous joke "Is it a boy or a girl? Yes." is so hilarious"
Only to IT people though. Common folks will just look at you in a weird way...
- still_grokking 6y agoExcept the folks are mathematicians. But in this case there is actually a slight chance that nobody recognizes this as a joke at all...
- hutzlibu 6y agoI knew that someone would point that out.. But I figured most mathematicians are IT people, too. But there is at least also a third group: philisophers. They have formal logic, too (in university), but seldom math. So in the spirit of the joke: "Only to IT people though. " Would have to be: "Only to IT people and/or math people and/or philosophers, though. " Desire for formal correctness satisfied?
