The mathematical dad joke to end all dad jokes! Newton's "differential equations are not the sameial equations" pun works on multiple levels of nerdy brilliance. It's the perfect intersection of historical fiction and mathematical wordplay that would make even the most serious calculus professor snort coffee through their nose. Differential equations actually describe rates of change (like Newton's laws of motion), but here he's just making a terrible pun that would have gotten him kicked out of the Royal Society faster than an apple falling from a tree.
