We dumb
(lemmy.dbzer0.com)
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.
I was arguing with a engineer two weeks ago about systems. I never met him before. But he had a few drinks and interrupted our conversation. And I nearly lost my shit because of how confident this guy was speaking, saying obvious things and being vague, while not saying anything at all. Like, "This system isn't good at all! We should all follow Clean Code principles!"
Then someone pulled me aside and said, "Go easy on the guy. He's only been in the industry for a year."
And I did feel bad. But also like, my dude... You are going to wake up to realizing you know nothing about everything.
I wish I had your optimism about humanity.
This guy sounds like management material.
Best to read the comment you're replying to before going on a tirade - this guy drunkenly interrupted OPs conversation to lecture them, it's a proportionate response, even if maybe not optimal
shut up
