I think Arts and Sciences folks need to team up and fuck up Commerce bros.

Deal of the day: tech bros and finance bros fuck shit up for everybody. Take it or have it shoved down your throat.
How do you define Tech bros? I lump them in Commerce category in my head.
Computer Science/Engineering people I have encountered are more into liberatory politics (whether they overtly acknowledge it/are awareof it or not)
I played the game for a long time. Then I went to industry and never looked back.
I totally, totally get people who stay in academia. I've had and in a way still have the dream. But: the struggle is just as bad if not worse than industry, while the money in industry is much, much better.
Why I noped out of academia for industry.
Yea, I figured this out my first year of classes.
It's not like it's unknown, and I started college in the 80's.
really? did you not know? I spent one year in a PhD program and although I dreamed my whole life of researching the natural world and teaching I realized I really like eathing and having climate controlled shelter.
If someone doesn't know this about academia, their reasearch skills are not that great.
It has meme status at this point.
Got my bachelor's and wanted to go to PhD, but realizing this has me strongly considering skipping it. I want to do the research, but holy shit, there's so much other bullshit, and it's so fucking competitive for funding. Since I'm considering an international move, I also have to consider how stable my position will be so I don't get deported. I want to push science forward, but I dunno if I can wade through all the bullshit to get my chance to...
