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.

What you're doing is the secret sauce already, you're just missing luck. Obviously take whatever job you need to pay rent in the meantime, but if you keep it up then I think you'll get something eventually.

It is the worst time in all of history to be a software developer looking for work, so don't internalise it.
