atleast once i was the lead on changing clinical legacy code, i dont remember if it was sequencing or microarray, but i changed it, it was python i remember, but that's just the first step. then i had to go onsite and print out this change - code document (like 10+ pages) with screenshots of the before & after the changes of my code and how it effected the output, write in with black pen, the summary, and then get it signed by this non-bioinfo but important person who was watching me lol, i had to go back and forth many times to their office bc i had to write more info etc or i needed more screenshots, like the whole day was spent doing that. but thats the thing. u cant be some weak dweeb programmer on the side in a lab, which is what my undergrad research advisor use to drill in my head, like u need to interact with ppl/present urself well and with confidence too. also anyone who thinks u can vibe code in bioinformatics has no idea what theyre talking about. thats right, once my mom, i think it was 3rd yr, caught me going to class @ rutgers once, in something she didnt like, and she said something i still remember to this day, she said "you can do all that computer science stuff, that's fine, it's great, but you can't dress like those people, u cant look like a geek" theres so much wisdom behind that, as ive gotten older, i think that stereotype of a programmer dressing in like walmart plaid shirts etc, with no presentation/social skills, spends too much time on reddit/video games etc, that kind of a person in a lab/company, i think that is someone who is resentful easily of other ppl's success, i think that. i remember once in undergrad in lab, in that algae lab, the PI once jokingly/politely pointed out that, maybe, just maybe, its not the best idea for me, someone who was writing serious R/Bioconductor code, working on sequencing data and it was suppose to all be part of a paper, that maybe, just maybe, i should not wear bright pink sweatpants to lab that said "victoria's secret" ROTFL i did that a few times before it was pointed out to me hahahaha
ohh herf derf, this hobby of mine, the only thing i do, spend time on reddit and play video games nonstop after work, ohhh i wonder why ppl at work dont think im interesting or like me or why im not doing better than other ppl (including women) -- yeah, i dunno get better hobbies (like read non-fiction) and fking present urself well & have social skills, like r u going to learn how to do that while being in ur basement and reading/posting on reddit all day or playing video games. i cant stand that sht & i stay away from those kinds of ppl at work. they get resentful very quickly, their thing is "im putting in the same number of hrs as this other person, and im not better than them" yeah well, get better hobbies. thats on you, not on me. my other pet peeve is someone (esp at work) who is like a "foodie" like sht the fk up, that's not a real hobby, that's not a flex. there are plenty of tiktoks ppl have made where essentially they're saying, there are ppl @ work, where from the hours of 9 am - 5 pm (etc), they're "somebody" and then after 5 pm, they log off, and they're losers, and those ppl can be really dangerous.
i profile ppl while driving bc my dad said, when he was teaching me to drive in hs, that ~ "whenever u see someone in front of you driving like a little crazy, change ur lanes and pass that person, its not worth it to take a risk" right? like recognize ur safety could be at risk and get out of that situation asap. i profile ppl at work, like LOL once this person (bioinfo/comp bio) who was giving recs to someone else about restaurants in nyc (bc they lived in nyc), eventually TURNED THEIR BACK towards me (bc they were sitting next to me), bc i had nyc restaurant recs for that person too. its not rocket science to be a "foodie" LOL get a better hobby hahaha
