Meme of two women fighting while a man smokes from a pipe in the background.

The women fighting are labeled "mathematicians defining pi" and "engineers just using 3 because it's within tolerance"

The man smoking is labeled "astrophysicists" and the pipe is labeled "pi = 1"

We're talking about engineers here! We're using MATLAB or Python if we're programming at all.

Your not writing regular python code, your writing a special subset of python intended for engineers and scientists called "bad python code"
