An update from independent research Andreas Madsen
- Mentions that academia can become quite hostile, lots of individuals fighting for a small amount of funds leading to cut-throat conditions. He notes these people are more interested in power and achievements than upholding scientific integrity.
- Kinda lost interest after a bit…mostly repeated same points about disappointment and the “invisible, careless hands”. I can definitely sympathize with this, the same happened for me and my MIT Lincoln Lab summer internship. Good thing for him, he’s doing a PhD at MILA, which sounds like a pretty darn good plan B.
