Bayesian Memes

The academic equivalent of choosing violence! This technical writer took "passive-aggressive" to PhD level with increasingly condescending explanations of complex statistical formulas. Starting with "if you're not an idiot" and escalating to "for those who sniffed too much Elmer's glue in second grade" is peak scientific saltiness. The formulas appear to be related to Gaussian processes and Bayesian statistics, but the real mathematical achievement here is calculating exactly how many ways to insult the reader's intelligence. The writer even helpfully explains that "exp is exactly what you think it is" – which is clearly the mathematical notation for exasperation.
