What Field Should I Get Into With These Specs?

Found dopamine while mindlessly scrolling? That's the ultimate chemical irony. Your brain's reward system is getting a hit from seeing an image of the very molecule responsible for your social media addiction. It's like finding water in the desert, except the water is what made you thirsty in the first place. Next weekend challenge: try finding serotonin by cleaning your lab bench.

The "we only use 10% of our brain" myth gets brilliantly demolished here. Instead of waiting for help that might never come, this programmer exploits humanity's most reliable cognitive feature: the irresistible urge to correct someone who's wrong on the internet. It's psychological judo - using people's superiority complex against them. The beautiful irony is that while claiming to use "100% of the brain," they're actually demonstrating exactly how our brains are wired - not for altruism, but for proving others wrong. Darwin would be proud - evolution clearly optimized us for pedantry rather than kindness.

The graph shows a negative correlation between testosterone and IQ, but the real gem is that ONE outlier point in the top right corner—high testosterone AND high IQ—circled and labeled as "Guy who answered my question on math stack exchange 9 years ago." That legendary Stack Exchange hero defies biological trends just to explain partial differential equations to desperate students at 3 AM! The hero we needed but didn't deserve. And with an R² value of only 0.19, this correlation is weaker than my willpower around free conference snacks.

Evolutionary biology at its finest! Humans evolved as persistence hunters who could literally chase prey until it collapsed from exhaustion. Our ancestors didn't need claws or fangs—they just needed cardio and stubborn determination. So next time you're pulling an all-nighter before a grant deadline or running your 50th failed experiment, remember: you're genetically programmed to stalk your goals until they surrender. Just maybe take a nap first. Your dreams aren't going anywhere—they're probably too exhausted to run anyway.

Your brain: a sophisticated 3-pound organ capable of quantum calculations, abstract reasoning, and creating entire civilizations... yet somehow it's programmed to remember that embarrassing thing you said at a party 12 years ago instead of where you put your keys 5 minutes ago. Thanks, evolution! This "negativity bias" is our brain's way of keeping us alive by prioritizing potential threats. Great for avoiding saber-toothed tigers, terrible for your mental health after reading Twitter comments. Next time you're replaying that awkward conversation from 2011, remember: your amygdala is just doing its job—being an overprotective drama queen.

Finally, a mathematical formula more elusive than the Riemann hypothesis – the probability of romantic interest. What we have here is Bayes' theorem masquerading as relationship advice. Turns out, calculating quantum field equations is still easier than figuring out if your crush likes you back. The denominator should include a term for "number of times you've rehearsed this conversation in the shower" divided by "actual courage to speak when the moment arrives." Trust me, I've been teaching probability for 30 years, and this equation still returns "undefined" for most grad students.
