‘We’re no longer attracting top talent’: the brain drain killing American science - Feddit UK

Lemmy

If I know smart people, the one thing they love is constantly having to fight for resources and their job, at lower pay than they deserve, with a risk of getting censured and death threats if what they publish upsets the uneducated masses.
There are enough smart people who do love exactly that because it proves their superiority.
I don’t think the intersection of “scientist” and “masochistic asshole” is actually big enough to carry us.
