Raised beds and frequent plucking of undesired shoots.

Mostly the credit taking I'd gather.

Yes, that's basically what we did in Iraq. It led to a 20y occupation, thousands of troops killed, hundreds of thousands to millions of civilian deaths, and several new terrorist organizations. It will cost the US alone about 8,000,000,000,000. Basically the entirety of cultural progress and then some was lost in a few months.

Well some journals. Other journals only print if you know the editor and some journals actually follow through on peer review but reviewers are humans as well.

The way it may have been written is not as upfront as scientific text is nowadays. Gelatin was used in ancient Egypt and agar (rather than agarose) was reportedly used as far back as the 1600s including for food.

I would also mention jams and jellies are in a similar fashion and the first known recipe for jam was written in the 4th century AD and it probably existed before then.

Regardless of exact phrasing it shows how disconnected those people feel they are from politics. Biden dropping and Kamala coming in was months before election day there was plenty of reporting across networks about it.

On election day there were people googling whether Biden was running. The average reading level is 4-6th grade. Most people get their "news" from social media....

Nope, most researchers are still poor coders. Coding is a skill that takes time to learn if you even have someone who can check your shit (very rare). "Vibe coding"/using AI for research analytics is probably done and it is also probably shit.

Pay is still shit.

We're unregulated as shit but somehow 90% of the US can afford it.
