Free food Memes

The eternal struggle of scientific conferences captured in its purest form. Left side: brilliant minds discussing the fundamental nature of reality. Right side: salespeople hawking overpriced centrifuges.

The scientific method at work: hypothesis - free food exists; experiment - attend conference; conclusion - worth it, despite having to nod thoughtfully during talks about "quantum neural topological superconducting machine learning frameworks."
