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.
Thank the greed. Even bad results should be kept. It's still knowledge. To get closer to a goal, many mistakes are made and we have to learn from them. Using the scientific method to find out that something does not work is still valuable.
This is a lesson I try to teach my kids every day. When they get upset they can't do something, I ask, "well whatd you learn?" And sometimes it's as simple as "that didn't work." Other times they think for a second they try something new.
Failure is a learning opportunity. Take advantage if it.
