xkcd: A sketchpad webcomic about love, science and love and science. Plus some other treats.

At a rather different place on the comic spectrum, I've been liking the look of The Zombie Hunters.

Very cute, thanks!

He defined the Fourier Transform wrong - it's missing a minus sign.

I'll get my coat.

This is really good.
Damn it. Now I have to add it to my already excessive comic-list.

Shite. Like the sort of thing David Shrigley might do after a botched lobotomy.

That is to say, he swore eternal love.
But d/dx[♥] ≠ 0, and
To others has he sworn as much before.

From the about page: "I'm a recent college graduate with a degree in physics," which is, you know, shocking!

I thought this one was really clever.

I like 'em, the nerd factor seemed to up the overall charm. Thanks for the link.

In your link, just after the defn. of the Fourier transform is the self-inverse mapping function. Perhaps that's what was meant?

Dear Mr. Serial Killer,

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Great find. I bookmarked it.

Happy hunting.

I like!

This is my favorite webcomic.

Neat thing: you really can just chat with the author on instant messenging. I know that this is supposed to be one of the properties of internet content, but I'd never actually chatted with the author (artist?) of something I enjoyed like that.
