My work in a nutshell(I major in bio informatics)

Then you run it again, without touching anything, and it doesn't work

always leave comments!... now whether theyre coherent enough or not isnt my problem!

u/AverseABFun (very sad) Feb 02 '23

That comment was nice and coherent!

u/CaptainNeckbeard148 Loves GameStonk Feb 02 '23

You should see the comments i leave in my code then

Wow! That was Coherent... Whatever that meant

Can confirm.

u/SweetPowers Feb 01 '23

That's because they don't teach bioinformatics how to code :P

u/SamsNation Feb 01 '23

They do :P

u/SweetPowers Feb 01 '23

From what I heard, biological experiments are even harder to replicate and debug..

8

u/SamsNation Feb 01 '23

Yes and no. Biological experiments where you’re just trying things out to know what you would observe, yes, it’s hard to replicate. But it you’re working on a known solution, with known values, it’s not too hard to reverse engineer.

u/forcesofthefuture Feb 02 '23

I actually want to understand how the code works. So I can manipulate the code, for future use, it is a continuous learning loop.

7

u/SamsNation Feb 02 '23

That is true. But every language has a quirk where it would not occur in other languages. So you’re going down the rabbit hole of searching online and in the source code of the language to know why the code is doing the thing it is.

u/wiki8bite Feb 01 '23

As some one who doing both. I can confirm that is very true.

u/derpygamer2142 Feb 02 '23

Ah, but that’s why you save a copy of the file every time you make an adjustment.

u/Grandzelda Feb 02 '23

Or you use git

u/haleloop963 Feb 02 '23

Reminds me of the messages the Tf2 devs have in their programming codes

So true for programs

u/Flaming-DoubleTap23 Feb 02 '23

I’m not a programmer yet(I really want to be a smaller game dev soon) but I can’t code, and don’t have any game engines except scratch. And it’s scratch.

u/mattfromeurope can't meme Feb 02 '23

Computer „science“. Yeah, right…

u/rockets-make-toast Feb 02 '23

Imagine working on an experiment that relies heavily on longevity, so you spend literal decades on it, most of your professional career, only to find out that somebody put in a number wrong back in the 90's and and you've been chasing a dead end ever since.
