Comic here.

I feel like I'm likely to hear that it's a false dichotomy, but if so I haven't successfully dissolved it. (I'm not sure I actually had a concise name for it before; now that I do I should start saving comments about it.)

Edit: Ability to react may be related, possibly applying on shorter timescales.

I think I thought this was better when it was utterly inexplicable, actually.

I had read the previous comic yesterday, just 'cuz I follow the comic, which indeed makes it much more funny.

I am reminded of this excellent LW post from 2009: Head-land versus Real-land.
