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.

Sample size = 1. Temporal occurrences = 1. Spatial occurrences = 1.

Absolute certainty

1 = 1.00 = 100%

There is no doubt.

You sure about those equations? My background in Physics tells me that 1= π = (speed of light) / (not quite speed of light) [without unit]

If physics taught you that 1 = pi, you may want to retake some classes.

π = 1 is fine in a Fermi approximation

I don't know, I passed the "rounding to the next order of magnitude because it's good enough and nobody will notice" class with flying colours

I got 1000%, or something close
