The Talk (2016)

This is a classic and always fun to reread, it helps to recalibrate my quantum computing sensor after reading nonsense articles and press releases everywhere else.

I'm not sure how the work was divided in making the comic, but I always appreciate the cleverness that Scott Aaronson has in his writing (especially with analogies) and it really shines through here.

And there I thought this was going to be about "The Talk" about the police all parents of black boys have with them when they become teenagers.

The secret panel at the end is the sort of thing that makes Zach Weinersmith one of my favourite humourists online.

(It's just the words 'Out-nerd me now, Randall!', in a challenge to 'xkcd' author Randall Munroe.)
