To be fair you could call that following the empirical evidence despite it running against theory, which is good science.

The time it takes to draw said worm is possibly critical for survival of the subsequent step...

[-] MousePotatoDoesStuff@lemmy.world 2 points 8 hours ago

Plus the time it takes to look at it, as well as other effects on the people involved.

Especially when a sudden absence happens.

Sure, like for example the time spent drawing the worm gives them time to remember to take the absolutely vital step they didn't do.

You have to draw an ugly worm on others for a variable

[-] OpenStars@piefed.social 3 points 1 day ago

H-h-hey now, nobody said that the worm drawing was ugly!? Nor did people say that the worm was attractive.

Hrm, someone claiming to be from HR now wants to talk with me (do we even have an HR?)...

[-] Einskjaldi@lemmy.world 4 points 15 hours ago

Oh, no I meant an ugly worm as opposed to the first one to test if an ugly worm does better or worse. The first one was pretty sexy.

"damn straight!"

Wait, now HR wants to speak with me again, about the possibility of existence of non-straight worms (or perhaps it's non-damned ones?:-P).
