Great video by Sabine Hossenfelder on what's wrong with academia:

Thanks for pointing that out. I updated the post, because I meant academia. My own language, Dutch, uses one word for both science and scholarly research: wetenschap. This word is also used for academia in general...

Yes, it seems that she was unlucky, but on the other hand is that also an indication of things being wrong...

So sad! I know all too well that some people can create toxic environments and that you are not always warned beforehand... I think that she correctly identifies some causes on her video. I hope the future of academia will be more open and more supportive and less a competitive rat race...
