science hell
(fedia.io)
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Lemmings also seem to love moving the goalposts and then arguing that whatever I said doesnt fit their goals. I posted about how we could possibly use machine learning to optimise traffic (adjusting speed limits and light timings) with the goal of getting everyone to their destinations just a little bit faster and reducing the time each individual car is running.
Some Lemming just hooked in that it wouldnt work because we need better public transport, more trains, cycleways, people need to drive less... blah blah fucking blah. Treating me like I'm a fucking idiot because it didnt solve a problem he decided it should.
You probably already know but this is text book straw man argument.
Search up logical fallacies. It's a bit of a rabbit warren.
