Robert Carlyle/Dr Nicholas Rush Thunk/Appreciation thread
This is a guess, but Shor's Algorithm is used for breaking public key cryptography and the male and female stick figures probably refer to Alice and Bob, which are the names given in quantum physics to points A and B when discussing the transfer of data.
ETA: I checked with my hubby (physicist working in quantum cryptography) and he says it's not usual to use stick figures, but given the "A" and "B" next to them, he'd guess that I guessed correctly.
Okay. Now I have a headache. This is actually very interesting. I'd never heard this. Thanks for taking the time to make inquiry!
Sometimes, there are details that just niggle and drive you nuts for no sane reason. Since "Subversion" I've suspected SG Wardrobe is cheating. RC is wearing the same jeans in "Subversion" as he did in "Human." The one episode is a dream sequence and in the other he should be wearing Telford's pants! (No, noting which pants RC is wearing is not an obsession.)
