(thelemmy.club)
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

The joke is that this is the best representation of a Fourier transform you're ever likely to see.
3blue1brown has a good video representation
Of course it's 3blue1brown
TBH that channel has a good video for everything STEM. Anything they missed, Brady Haran or Kurzgezaagt covered.
