Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:
-
/c/TenForward@lemmy.world - Star Trek chat, memes and shitposts

MODERATORS
Science people have no idea the depths to which mathematicians and computer scientists will sink as we give silly names to hundreds of abstract concepts.
Currying has nothing to do with curry :(
Well, that wasn’t mathematicians memeing.
Currying is named after Haskell Curry
Shame, I would like to uncurry my curry sometimes → (vegetables, spices)…
(Okay, damn that does quite work since the curry is already the "output". I could uncurry the curry making process?)
