Memes with a history lesson - this is a format I’d like to see take hold.

I wonder how many of of the memes here would benefit from having a lay person explanation, or if that would just be like the frog dissection quip.

I dunno guys…

It’s a “g”…

Malgas,

I’m pretty sure it’s a ∂ lying on its front.

Apparently even crows know how useful this is to me.

TWeaK,

Yeah but imaginary numbers are a very real problem, and the solution of which affects you every day.

ALostInquirer,

🤨 Is this an elaborate joke, or is this query itself demonstrative of the reality of the statement?

TWeaK,

Yes.

But seriously yeah, imaginary numbers (square root of -1) just so happens to be a key part of the definition of a sinusoidal waveform, which is what all electromagnetic radiation flows by. Especially power delivered by alternating current, but also digital stuff and general quantum particles and things. So it really affects everything.

Does it affect my estimated pizza delivery time?

McSudds_,

The latter, I believe.

Oh no! They understand my bank statement!

jadelord, (edited ) in He did though.

Well, he does have a point though.

Footnote: Yeah, I saw that he had done some bad faith research, but remember open access is for everyone in the world, not just free rider corporate shills.

Footnote 2: If it is not feasible to go for gold OA journals, please go for green route: publish in closed but allows authors to put it up on preprint like arXiv.

You’re supposed to reevaluate brain size as a measure of intelligence. The expression “bird brain” is so outdated we need to stop using it. Bird neurons are significantly smaller than ours, so they can fit a lot more brain in a smaller volume.

While you’re at it, you should probably reevaluate everything about intelligence and memory because apparently jellyfish have memories despite having no brain or ganglia of any kind.

DroneRights,

I haven’t heard anyone say bird brain in the past decade

qarbone,

I’m not an older sibling in a 90s-era kids sitcom, so I haven’t used the phrase “bird-brain” in decades…

QuaternionsRock, (edited )

Well, no one in a 90s-era sitcom has used the phrase in decades either ;P

kaesaecracker,

Also some insects dissolve in their cocoons to a handful of cells and yet still maintain memories from their larva stage

Bird neurons are significantly smaller than ours

The neurons themselves? Because human axons are already as small as can be; they sometimes missfire because of this (brain is built around that, no worries).

Ah, a long con. Nice.

That is a good way to get citations, NGL.
