A computer scientist, algebraic structure theorist, and geometer walk into a coffee shop.

As the caffeine flows, they get into an argument about whose field requires the most imagination.

The computer scientist says his field takes the most.

We are probing into the fundamental nature of what it means to think! What it means to be! To do/ time! Space! Free will!

The algebraic structure theorist rolls her eyes.

They scowl at each other, then turn to the geometer who is smiling smugly.

My field requires far more imagination. You're merely dealing with the state space of this universe. People like me have to think about the nature of the forms that make mathematics itself operate!

She takes out a pencil and draws something on a piece of graph paper.

The other two look at it in confusion.

I don't get it.

It's just a blobby thing with some symbols on it.

"now," says the geometer,imagine this is an isosceles triangle."
