Here’s a Computer Science geek-recognition comic strip for that particular sub-set of readers. 
By disproving basic logic, the building block of many core concepts in Computer Science, the highly talented female in this strip is able to discover numerous errors in Donald E. Knuth’s The Art of Computer Programming. Knuth offers a reward of $2.56 for each error found in his book, which would entitle the female to a large quantity of money.
There is not a joke here, just a reference to a piece of pop-geek-culture that will make a small set of people feel some amount of self worth.
