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.
Surprisingly, ChatGPT is the mortal enemy of a lot of machine learning researchers. It gives people a bad impression about what the field is, poisons future training data, and gives AI researchers who make truly remarkable and useful things a bad reputation because everyone "hates AI" when they really hate the stupid VC backed circlejerk that becomes inevitable in a society like this.
Most, if not all, professions in the domain of knowledge creation hate AI.
Engineers hate managers.
Remember next time you get a shitty product, don't blame the engineer who designed it. Blame the manager who forced him to do it that way.
Technicians hate engineers. An engineer will drag themselves across a field of naked virgins, ignoring them all, in order to fuck one mechanic.
I blame designers for everything. Keeps the fads and fashion for the well-to-do. The average person needs function first. Why would anything I want to buy for regular use be available seasonally or only come in over the top fancy plastic shapes with weird colors and breaks with less than 100 hours of use. I have a kitchen and office because I use them, not because it accents my overpriced home. I have worked in merchandising from many angles and it sickens me. Even what should be simple packaging on almost all retail products is overdesigned and printed full of lies. And the worst part is the cost of the product is directly related to design. Look at how cheap some knock-offs can be produced. I would never presume the engineer to be the source of the overpriced malfunctions of consumerism.
Programmers hate ai
Psychologists hate facebook....and also ai
Marriage Counselors hate reddit....and also ai
helpdesk and users
Whoever is fixing your computer absolutely despises you if you're a smoker. Tar gets everywhere.
Users are the enemy of IT workers.
"Everything is working fine. What do we even pay you people for?"
"Everything is on fire! What do we even pay you people for!"
Printers.
Specifically small consumer printers that users insist on having on their desk
Cardiologists probably hate fried food and energy drinks
The amount of people absolutely POUNDING several event drinks a day is astounding.
I have a heart condition and couldn't drink them if I wanted to, without dying, so they don't believe when I say it's bad for them.
Yeah, WTF is up with this? The people that will drink 3 or 4 cans of Monster a day? JFC, that shit'll kill you, man!
I worked with someone who would bring 4 cans of monster to work every day, but he told me he was essentially addicted. He said he'd get pounding headaches if he didnt drink them now. Its probably not all that different from a cocaine habit.
Caffeine habits are very real, and holy shit, that's like 6-7 coffees a day. If he went cold turkey, it would be a week of hell at home, vomiting from the migranes.
coffeine makes me sleepy so energy drinks only give me placebo and it doesn't matter that coffeine barely affects me, could not care less about the caffeine, but
one can usually has an entire day's maxiumum amount of sugar for an adult in it, that is an insane amout to drinking in an hour or so. and that's not to even mention that whatever they put in them seems to enjoy making kidney stones!
those things should not be a regular part of anyone's diet
Human being here. I hate people.
/s
Guitarists hate the G string
Same for strippers
Chefs hate everything and everyone, but especially instagram.
My hell is a land of dishes that were sent back to be reheated.
People saying users are the bane of IT professionals are just antisocial whiners. The real bane of an IT professional is fucking printers. Fuck printers.
Proctologists hate deodarant cans
I thought they’d absolutely love objects without flared bases - keeps them employed, and entertained!
Data Engineers hate delimiters in data
Paramedic - being awake.
Bike mechanics hate Slime
Do toxicologists hate mushrooms?
Elementary teachers hate full moons.
Why?
Some may think this is woo woo or superstition, but I lost count of how many times I’ve been like, “why are all the kids acting crazy (even the ones who are normally sane)?” and it turns out it’s a super moon or just a regular full moon.
I think it’s because kids still have that animal brain that sometimes overrides their logical brain.
From Wikipedia
Psychologists, however, have found that there is no strong evidence for effects on human behavior around the time of a full moon.[12]

TL;DR: Overall, studies show different answers, which could be the cause of:

Probably a case of: only people that experience out of the ordinary rates or behaviors around those periods or days will speak up about it due to the phenomenon having some popularity, while others forget or don't talk about it.
It seems that not a lot of people care about this, and the subject suffers from low sample sizes in my opinion (often around a few thousands at best). Due to the highly random nature of these events, I believe big sample sizes should be required.
Werewolves, obviously.
