The world needs as many highly educated people as possible. The problem becomes when you make higher education a business and attach publication as a requirement for advancement. Then you are diluting the quality of research in pursuit of a “high volume” model. In this model people don’t follow passion they follow the path of least resistance and we all suffer for it.

Wait. Let me guess. It’s about 600 dollars overpriced, requires proprietary wiring, is not repairable (because Tim Cook believes you are leasing it from apple), requires an Internet connection to perform a basic function that has worked for over 100 years without AI, oh and it doesn’t have an actual button to reduce waste. You are supposed to use your old one or buy an apple button for another 600 dollars. Also, it stops working or slows down after a year and for some reason you need a subscription to use it.
