A single panel xkcd comic. Ponytail issitting at a computer with Cueball standing behind her. Cueball: When a user takes a photo, the app should check whether they're in a national park... Ponytail: Sure, easy GIS lookup. Gimme a few hours. Cueball: ...and check whether the photo is of a bird. Ponytail: I'll need a research team and five years. Caption below the panel: In CS, it can be hard to explain the difference between the easy and the virtually impossible.
