  • Which language are we talking here? Cpp? Because typeof hasn't ever seemed useful to me in how I use cpp or how I have ever really used a language. I also remember it being criticized in java class more than 20 years ago when OOP was solely preached, even for scientific people like me.

  • It's just modeling humans. I was only a lab TA for two semesters, and I caught so many fake data sets.

  • Ok. I'm also not crazy.

  • My hairline has started receding very rapidly. There's there's these fine hairs all over my desk, and I see the photo I took when joining directly before turning on my camera every meeting.

  • Be nice.

    Jesus Christ. Just be nice.

    Why is no one on Lemmy nice.

  • Again, who is saying that? I don't find janitorial duty shameful neither do I find sanitation engineer shameful. That's you

    I guess you'd also rather be called butcher or barber than surgeon?

    After all, rebranding implies you're ashamed.

  • Tell me about it...

    I left my more mature company for a startup.

    I feel like Tyler Durden sometimes.

  • A more standard definition in academia is that scientists solve problems because they want to know the answer. Engineers solve problems because they want the problem to be solved.

    In any case, the difference is just, heh, academic.

    I'm very much the latter.

  • Who is saying that?

    There's too much virtue signaling here. No engineer thinks poorly of the trades. That's the point of the conversation.

    I just made a joke about how burger flippers can be called engineers, and I have a PhD.

  • Agreed.

    I might also argue that those people are all still engineers.

    Engineer just means "problem solver". Everyone gets paid for solving problems.

    The real question in my head is how far does this go?

    Sometimes the problem is that these burgers need flipping. Protein disk translocation engineers? I'm cool with that.

  • I always thought about going to be a farmer. Then I watched some videos from farmers and realized they are also engineers.

  • A large faction of engineers, especially software-type engineers, have these types of hobbies.

    I'm sitting here right beside the heirloom quality (compared to most furniture) coffee table I made in my garage with my nearly complete wood shop.

    I make stuff in two ways in my day job. I design something and someone else makes it, or it's just some idea as software.

    Engineers are a type. We're just wired differently from most other people.

  • I mean, I would've thought that story was false, but this makes me rethink that.

    Every denial from him is a confession.

    Not only do we know from early on that trump has as small penis but that he's insecure about it.

    Can you imagine it? The president of the United States, arguably the most powerful and effectual person in the whole world, is so mentally unwell that he is insecure about the size of his penis?

  • I forgot about Reince Priebus.

    Why are all the people he works with so stereotypically evil?

  • I've lived in my area in zone 7b since 2002 (old scale). That's single digits ~ half of years.

    It hasn't gotten that cold since I've moved here.

    If anyone of a sufficient age denies climate change, I think they're delusional.

    This is not something that can only be determined through sensitive statistics. It's affecting our day to day lives.

  • Anyway. Show it here.

    I'll take a look.

  • So, I can't imagine a workplace where you would share a x-ray/ultrasound/CT/mr/PET, where you'd invite people to see it, and the people who showed up could get you in trouble with HR.

    Just ask.

    There's nothing prurient about it unless you have weird motives.

    It's like showing Netter. One of the classic human anatomy books.

    If you do anyone remotely scientific, there should be no problem.

    Just be aware, the camera may add ten pounds. The CT scanner seems to add a lot more.
