Surprisingly, ChatGPT is the mortal enemy of a lot of machine learning researchers. It gives people a bad impression about what the field is, poisons future training data, and gives AI researchers who make truly remarkable and useful things a bad reputation because everyone “hates AI” when they really hate the stupid VC backed circlejerk that becomes inevitable in a society like this.
Differential cooling rates.
But it’s crucial for bimetalic strips around the world
And detrimental to everything structural made of metal.
Users are the enemy of IT workers.
Printers.
Specifically small consumer printers that users insist on having on their desk
“Everything is working fine. What do we even pay you people for?”
“Everything is on fire! What do we even pay you people for!”
Psychoanalysts hate those blotchy black & white images of my mother’s pussy giving birth to my father who is wielding a knife with my name written along the hilt. “Stop bringing these fucking drawings in here!” she yells. God forbid a man have hobbies.
sysadmins hate end users because end users suck.
This brought to mind a collection of asshole admin stories from the early internet. With a bit of googling, it was The Bastard Operator From Hell. God, I haven’t thought of those since the 90s. I can’t believe I could even recall something like that.
Anyway, fuck users.
They are still ongoing!
Original author too. He was hired by The Register.
I just referred to the BOFH in class last week.
… Nobody caught the reference but it made me happy.
Chefs hate everything and everyone, but especially instagram.
My hell is a land of dishes that were sent back to be reheated.
Whoever is fixing your computer absolutely despises you if you’re a smoker. Tar gets everywhere.
Cardiologists probably hate fried food and energy drinks
Then you see the cardiologist at lunch pounding an energy drink, and stuffing whatever the fastest option in their hospital is, down their throat.
then going out for a cig break
The amount of people absolutely POUNDING several event drinks a day is astounding.
I have a heart condition and couldn’t drink them if I wanted to, without dying, so they don’t believe when I say it’s bad for them.
coffeine makes me sleepy so energy drinks only give me placebo and it doesn’t matter that coffeine barely affects me, could not care less about the caffeine, but
one can usually has an entire day’s maxiumum amount of sugar for an adult in it, that is an insane amout to drinking in an hour or so. and that’s not to even mention that whatever they put in them seems to enjoy making kidney stones!
those things should not be a regular part of anyone’s diet
Yeah, WTF is up with this? The people that will drink 3 or 4 cans of Monster a day? JFC, that shit’ll kill you, man!
I’m failing to see a downside
Tastes better than cigarettes shrugs
I worked with someone who would bring 4 cans of monster to work every day, but he told me he was essentially addicted. He said he’d get pounding headaches if he didnt drink them now. Its probably not all that different from a cocaine habit.
Caffeine habits are very real, and holy shit, that’s like 6-7 coffees a day. If he went cold turkey, it would be a week of hell at home, vomiting from the migranes.
I think knowing him made me reframe how I view caffeine. I treat it as a potent drug and it seems to affect me that way now, so I barely use it.
IT people hate computers
I have nothing against computers, as long as people aren’t allowed to touch them
I saw a “update” button pop up on my screen. The IT guy ran over, shouted “WTF I turned that off! Fucking bullshit!” And he stormed off.
I think about that a lot.
Windows and Microsoft in general does things to a man.
Proctologists hate things without a flared base.
“An apple a day keeps the doctor away, but not this way!”
EMS hate motorcycles and decorative throw rugs.
Why do they hate the decorative throw rugs?
Slip and fall danger.
I know 2 people that both had an accident this way. One tore off a tendon around the knee, the other fractured their hand from trying to cushion their fall. And I don’t know that many people.
Fell on a throw rug yesterday
and anything vaugly shaped like a butt plug but is not a butt plug.
Also, actual butt plugs. Yes, they can and they will slip inside to the point you can’t get them out.
ALWAYS USE A FLAIRED BASE. Ideally a very wide flaired base.
very important lol
Flair: the 32 pins and badges at TGIFriendly’s
Flare: a widening at the base
Ah, thank you I missed that :)
You ever realize that a guy is the flaired base to his penis?
The real life pro tip, in the replies as always
Tech support hates boomers and zoomers
Let’s hear it for the generation who had to fix computers as a survival skill.
Guitarists hate the G string
Same for strippers
Elementary teachers hate full moons.
Why?
Some may think this is woo woo or superstition, but I lost count of how many times I’ve been like, “why are all the kids acting crazy (even the ones who are normally sane)?” and it turns out it’s a super moon or just a regular full moon.
I think it’s because kids still have that animal brain that sometimes overrides their logical brain.
From Wikipedia
Psychologists, however, have found that there is no strong evidence for effects on human behavior around the time of a full moon.[12]

TL;DR: Overall, studies show different answers, which could be the cause of:
- Unrelated, manually picked data from some area
- Small sample size
- Correlation, not causation (?), though it doesn’t seem to be the case
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_moon#cite_ref-12 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_effect
Probably a case of: only people that experience out of the ordinary rates or behaviors around those periods or days will speak up about it due to the phenomenon having some popularity, while others forget or don’t talk about it.
It seems that not a lot of people care about this, and the subject suffers from low sample sizes in my opinion (often around a few thousands at best). Due to the highly random nature of these events, I believe big sample sizes should be required.
pulmonologists hate vapes
Data? No, because there is none. And I have read every.single.study. They are all fucked in some way or another whether it’s methodology or the stats or the sample size/composition. Not a single real in vivo study. None. There is exactly one researcher in Greece doing decent work, and that’s it. I took a career change from my previous and now present career and worked in pharma and biotech research.
Are you a lung doctor or are you someone who vapes and wants to be able to maintain the illusion that it isn’t harmful?
I am someone who used to do medical research for a lot of money. I’ve interviewed chairs of FDA committees, trial designers, and active trial leads on phase III (mostly) research in pharma and biologics. I still have access to PupMed via my old friends.
