On Science and Poverty

[ianki]

Science is weird. In practice, it might be one of the only vocations that rewards you on how well you deceptively use mathematics to make an argument. The only other jobs like this that i can think of, might be accounting and perhaps mathematics itself. But honestly, no experiment is a failure with the right set of statistics. Not getting what

I mean, of course ethically we have to let them leave, but couldn't you just suck it up? This was perfect.

Remember when your experiment made a little girl cry?

Remember when you made a professor cry?

Certainly less of an highlight than when one girl said she thought my experiment was designed to "make me feel stupid and worthless".
