A top administrator at the primary hospital system where I live required all the employees to get vaxxed in 2021 to keep their jobs and got jabbed herself. Her family was proud of her being a tough negotiator. Recently she was diagnosed with a rare cancer. Privately she has shared with her family that she now seriously thinks the vax is the cause. This scenario is playing out repeatedly across the country.
One would hope that, in a situation like this, the admin would at least quit. Maybe she thinks she needs the job for the health insurance, which of course, is circular logic as it was "health care" that caused the cancer in the first place. To quote Aldous Huxley, “You pays your money and you takes your choice.”
Speaking of critical thinking. You'd think that scientists are all critical thinkers.
In my whole scientific career, I can tell you that it is much farther from the truth. Even in highly mathematical STEM fields. Most of their ideas simply suck and will not get any good results. I knew that as soon as they told me what they're thinking.
I worked with about 10 other scientists closely. Only 1 of them is capable of critical thinking. I have worked with people from the ivy league, Harvard, Berkeley, Princeton. Young professors / graduates. Their ideas suck. I could tell that they are all indoctrinated.
Yep. I left the Academia because most of them will write papers that have absolutely no use at all. It is the same in the AI field, I walked around in one of the best conference, only about 5-10% has some sort of impact. IN ONE OF THE BEST AI VENUES!!
I have been doing / creating a lot of impactful stuff in the industry. Been looking for job. In an interview, I had someone ask me why I'm not writing any papers on the work I did. I just didn't what to say. Like, telling him that a good scientist thinks for himself and doesn't need to know whether a project has a paper to understand that it works??
