This forums title; puzzles, I get. But Posers?
Urban Dictionary;
1. posers
A poser is someone who tries to fit into a profile they aren't. People who try to give off the impression that they are one thing when they are really another.
Also, a poser can be one who says they can do something that they can't.
Or more commonly, a poser is someone who, when doing something successfully, takes more than enough credit for it.
Wiki;
Poser is a 3D CGI rendering and animation software program optimized for models that depict the human figure in three-dimensional form, mostly used to pose and animate the figures in a similar way as a mannequin. The program has become very popular due to its ease of use, which allows beginners to produce basic animations and digital images, and the extensive availability of third-party digital models.
Dose the title refer to one of these meanings?

I expect it's something else entirely?

"Say you have a bucket with a hole in it and ....blah blah blah ... physics ... math ..."
I would consider that a "poser". Take sonhouse's thread on "fan spinning backwards" for instance.
