Makes it easier to forget them and not being able to keep them apart. That’s really great for us. Less ads in our brains.

The famous flying fish.
- Comment on Anon doesn't tip 1 week ago:
I don’t tip as well. But I live in a civilised country where everyone get’s at least a tolerable minimum wage. No one is paying me extra money just for doing my job. So I won’t either. If they want more, they need to talk to their employer.
Would I live in the United States of Idiots though, where a severe lack of ethical economic behaviour is observable, I indeed would tip the waiters, as that’s sadly their financial lifeline.
- Comment on Why did it take so damn long for humanity to "learn" how to draw/paint realistic images? 4 weeks ago:
The artist needs to use the brain and translate a lot, and I mean an awful lot, of the information seen in the model (3d space) into 2d.
Close one eye or put an eyepatch on. I’d expect this makes 3D -> 2D transformations easier after a while.

- Comment on Anon tests something 5 weeks ago:
I love those catchy titles. It’s not something like “The Molecular Basis of Taste Perception in Mammals: A Comprehensive Review and Future Perspectives on Taste Receptors in Male Reproduction”
Nah, they go with: “Taste perception: from the tongue to the testis”
Short and concise to the point. Scientists have a sense of humorous wordplays after all.

No, it’s a surgeon who is trained to use robotic assistance tools to do the surgery. Can help with precision for example.
- Comment on Anon tests something 5 weeks ago:
Balls no taste. Taste IN balls not “on” balls. Taste not really “taste” like tongue, but rather sense how is sperm doing and tell brain.

When no one was looking.
- Comment on DarkPattern.games - a website that rates mobile games for their "dark patterns" 1 month ago:
I’ve always wanted to make a website like this. But then I got too addicted to some game and spent all my time on that instead. /j
Only partly joking, I really wanted to make a website similar to this. But then stuff happened. You know how it is.
(Here was an entire wall of text, where I detailed the idea, before I decided to delete it all again.)

Tell the US government about it. Then they will bring you democracy and liberate you from the oppressive oil.
- Comment on Horseshoe crabs be like 2 months ago:
Due to the “being allergic” part this is unfortunately not possible for me. But thanks for trying to provide me with a different perspective.
- Comment on Horseshoe crabs be like 2 months ago:
Fair point. Although one may say this is fine here for comic purposes.
The same argument could be made about the statement “Gods perfect creation”.
But I’d argue that the suggestion of a creationist god expands the distance to scientific contexts even more while simple speech bubbles are fine due to less ideological conflict potential.Admittedly, I am also rather allergic to religions, which is why I am having a difficult time with that part of the meme.
- Comment on Horseshoe crabs be like 2 months ago:
Nice!
- Comment on Horseshoe crabs be like 2 months ago:
Me too. It’s a science meme community after all.
- Comment on Horseshoe crabs be like 2 months ago:
There’s no evidence for gods though.

There are alarm clock apps which can help. You may configure how unforgiving the alarm becomes.

I wonder how you’re breathing. /j
- Comment on Anon misses something 2 months ago:
Reading through the comments here makes one thing apparent again: clear and direct communication about one’s intentions can solve all of these misunderstandings. Being upfront will avoid that unnecessary “are they into me or not” over-analasys or missing such more or less subtle hints at all.
If you’re interested in someone, go for them! Tell them about your interest. It benefits you both. They’ll know, which can help in case they’re interested as well, and you’ll know what to expect whether they’re interested or not. This can also save you a lot of time, heart- and headache.
- Comment on Based on a true story 2 months ago:
I feel this. Fell into a similar rabbit hole when I tried to get realtime feedback on the program’s own memory usage, discerning stuff like reserved and actually used virtual memory. Felt like black magic and was ultimately not doable within the expected time constraints without touching the kernel I suppose. Spent too much time on that and had to move on with no other solution than to measure/compute the allocated memory of the largest payload data types.
- Comment on "Now everyone will have an easy reference table at hand!" 2 months ago:
But, consider you’re stranded in the wild. All technology lost due to an accident. It’s just you, nature and your skills. How will you know then for how many days the melons you’ve foraged will suffice if you’ve found N of them and eat one a day? /j

Not necessarily. A lot are paid by external research grants.

I wonder how it must have been like to be the one who thought one day, “I’ll pick coffee beans out of monkey shit and drink that shit!”

Aww too bad.

She rubs my hand between hers, and sets it on her lap
My expectation when I was reading this:
“She rubs my hand between hers, and sets it on fire”
Probably due to the formatting in anon’s greentext.
