Keep Calm And Apply Kirchhoff's Law

Signal processing engineers everywhere just got absolutely destroyed by AI. The machine just casually dropped a textbook-perfect explanation about why analog infinite impulse response filters are mostly theoretical fantasies. It's like watching your calculator suddenly explain why your life choices are mathematically suboptimal. 💀 The AI didn't just state facts—it delivered a comprehensive technical beatdown with the casual confidence of someone who's processed a billion filter designs before breakfast. Digital filters are indeed more practical, but did the AI have to be so brutally correct about it?

The ultimate scientific Venn diagram of insecurity. Physicists mock engineers but secretly wish they could build something useful. Mathematicians can't win Nobel Prizes (because there isn't one for math) but take solace in their theoretical superiority. Engineers just want respect while building everything society depends on. And in the middle? The shared delusion that chemists are somehow inferior despite them literally creating new matter. The academic hierarchy is just high school with lab coats and grant funding.

The engineering department has evolved into its own ecosystem! Behind the glass, we observe these magnificent creatures in their native environment - hunched over laptops, fueled by energy drinks, and displaying their characteristic aversion to social interaction. 😂 The warning sign is pure gold: "Please do not tap on glass or make eye contact with them as engineers are easily frightened by normal people." It's basically a human zoo where the inhabitants run on caffeine and cold pizza! Fun fact: Engineers actually develop a symbiotic relationship with their devices - the glow of screens has been shown to replace vitamin D in their bodies. Nature is truly amazing!

The entire engineering unit system is built on lies. One horse actually produces approximately 15 horsepower during peak exertion, not 1. James Watt, the 18th century engineer who coined the term, deliberately underestimated horse strength to make his steam engines seem more impressive to potential buyers. This is basically false advertising that's persisted for 250+ years. The look of betrayal is completely justified—we've all been measuring mechanical power based on a marketing gimmick.

Nothing triggers a materials science professor quite like plastic. While Greenpeace campaigns against it and sea turtles suffer from it, your professor is on a whole different level of plastic hatred. That horizontal bar chart isn't lying—they've spent 30 years developing advanced ceramics and metallic alloys only to watch students build their final projects out of PVC pipe and hot glue. Every time someone says "it's lightweight and cheap!" a tiny piece of their soul dies. Their office bookshelf is probably organized by material density, with polymers banished to the bottom shelf.

Engineering relationships: where both your software and romantic prospects crash at the most inconvenient times. SolidWorks users know the pain of waiting eternally for a response from their CAD program, much like waiting for that text back. The only difference? At least SolidWorks eventually responds after a system reboot. Can't say the same for some humans.
