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.

The people pointing out the women killed by bears vs men stats a few months ago need to understand this as well lol

Like I am fine if you want to meme or dunk on men but once you bring bad stats into it that’s when I get serious.

It's obtuse to treat the bear metaphor as a math problem. It's doubly so to correct the work.

But would you rather be alone in the woods with a statistician or a bear?
