Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

just because i learned to do math doesn't mean I'm not still afraid of it ๐Ÿ˜ญ

Oh, another engineer...

Hi.

I wish I could say I'm not an engineer but I become the de-facto engineer and IT technician at every place I work ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ

I'm also flattered though. :]

Oh, IT adjacent areas are still full of math.

If you ever get curious, electrical engineering has lots and lots of convoluted procedures one can learn to avoid even more math... And civil engineering has a very cool "I can beat math with brute force and linear approximations all day long!" philosophy that could improve the lives of most people.

I have heard of this mystical engineering technique called "looking it up in a table" by which one avoids copious amounts of math
