Their replies are too long. Why aren’t they like two lines at max? They space out real conversations.

Each one of these costs more than the building itself

It’s inherent to grants. If you want scientists to choose their topics you have to fund them unconditionally.

The reached the right end pretty quickly. One of the reasons I gave up on ML rather fast. Hyperparameter tuning is really, really random.

So you’re saying memes about AI don’t belong in Science communities, because it’s more of an art? 🤔

ekky43,

I think AI belongs in the same box as electronics, which is just black magic with a cover story to make it seem like science.

You know how electronics sometimes release smoke when misused? Yea, that smoke is actually what makes the component work, and it’s a hell of a chore to put the smoke back in when it first has escaped!

Or do you know that planes actually “fall up into the sky” when they have enough speed? Ever looked at a jet fighter? Yea, the wings are actually just decoys.

Perhaps the memes would be better placed in witchymemes, or maybe we should make a new community for real, black magic, magus bullshit, “science”.

(Disclaimer: I’m an engineer, the examples above are jokes we like to tell each other. I know how that stuff actually works, and I’m obligated to make this disclaimer so you don’t realize that most engineers actually are modern day mages.)

Poor plasma. It’s the most abundant state in the universe and always forgotten.

“… if this kind of earthquake occurred, it would probably be a 1-in-10,000-year event.[18]”

So, when was the last one?

Seems pretty high in geological terms

I… I think they know, and it’s weird that they know… like how nature do that?

HawlSera,

Assassin’s Creed didn’t make this up? A shame I can’t breed, my useless knowledge of media and game lore will die with me

bstix, to science_memes in What is gravity?

It’s not difficult. Gravity is like magnetism for things that aren’t magnetic.

Rinox,

Also for those that are magnetic

Knusper, to science_memes in Maybe stick to the stuff that comes out of the tap.

Don’t want to drink pure H₂O either…

Umbrias,

I mean, unless I’m missing something it should be fine as long as you get salts another way.

notacat,

Correct. I have no idea why people are freaking out over drinking water. We constantly eat and drink things that have wildly different osmolarity than our cells and yet here we still are. Our stomach and intestinal mucosa cells are not going to burst if we accidentally drink a milkshake (a hyperosmotic solution).

Jajcus,

Suprisingly mild and not very reactive. And I wondered if this even exists.

This also applies to coding! And I'm not currently dreading the fact I keep thinking of more and more convoluted solutions to my problem at work at all!

physcx,

The overlap of things tried with logical reasons is far too great for programming. Have you tried speaking to your duck about it?

airbussy, to science_memes in Do math memes count?

I was thinking coffee mugs were blind holes, until I realised mugs come with a handle

rmuk,

Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh. Me too. We are brothers.

You should crosspost onto !mathhumor

Thanks! I’ll check it out. Still figuring everything out. I’m not sure I know how to cross post here yet - unless it’s literally just posting the same image again?

So this is what my parents see when I send them articles. Huh.
