    A video about the do's and don'ts of self citations would be cool.
    There was a recent scandal where the impact factor of one of the biggest mdpi journals was taken away. That journal publishes 17000 papers or so per year. So you you can essentially buy a journal publication for 3k to boost your CV (on the first look)

    This is the most jaded view of academia but it’s understandable! I’m hoping that I have a happy lab and a happy work environment for my future students despite the pressure.
    I’m a stubborn fighter. I won’t compromise those pressures on my students. I want to have their back and be their rock, too! (I.e. extra effort on my part but I love this job)

    It is the reality in action in academia. I laughed a lot for "quick experiment". Really, thanks for putting a smile. I think academia might be in a big trouble on the long run. The huge number of publications in any field every day and to keep your focus and to deal with other illegitimate behaviors, what a world. Thank you. Mohamed

    Hi Andy! This comment is probably totally irrelevant to the content of this video but... Just wanted to thank you. I just had my confirmation milestone today and passed it very successfully. Your videos definitely helped in the process. Especially about organising the research and making the presentations continuously. It was the consistency that you constantly talked about that helped me to do this milestone relatively easily. Just wanted to give a huge shout-out and thank you for the videos you put out. It 100% works.

    Haha. One of my professors built an Arduino Microkernel and published a paper saying it was the first Arduino microkernel. It only took me about 5 minutes to find an opensource Arduino microkernel that had been around for over a year. I let him know about this expecting praise for correcting his error, but it was the one time he ever totally ignored my feedback.

    Another good topic is reviewers, at least one of them is always making a complete fool of themselves by showing their lack of stats (in the medical science fields usually)

    Once upon a temporally nuanced precipice, amid the multifaceted confluence of cogitation and hermeneutics, there transpired an epochal narrative, replete with intricate figurations that espoused the esoteric depths of epistemological inquiry. The metacognitive cadence, ensconced within the syntactic tapestry of the tale, unfurled its veritable mosaic of ponderous quandaries, resolutely evading facile comprehension.
    At the apex of the hermeneutical precipice, an erudite savant, ensconced within the labyrinthine corridors of intellectual prowess, embarked upon a foray into the abstruse recesses of theoretical metacognition. Armed with the cognitive weaponry of epistemological acuity, the savant endeavored to traverse the intricate skein of conceptual intricacy that enshrouded the salient issue at hand.
    The narrative, ensnared within the labyrinthine intricacies of post-structuralist discourse, disseminated its semiotic web with meticulous precision, ensuring its profound inscrutability to those devoid of erudite perspicacity. Every textual effusion was crafted with a peripatetic lexicon, replete with Latinate etymologies and an amalgamation of neologisms, meticulously interwoven to obfuscate the faintest flicker of clarity.
    As the narrative unfolded its lacunae-laden tapestry, the uninitiated souls, ensconced within the limited confines of a high school education, were left floundering amidst the syntactic wilderness. The intricate interplay of deconstructionist signifiers, Foucauldian power dynamics, and Baudrillardian simulacra formed a dense thicket of inscrutability, impervious to the cognitive faculties of the untrained mind.
    Verily, the narrative stood as an impenetrable citadel, a bastion of intellectual preeminence, safeguarded by the impenetrable ramparts of polysyllabic diction and labyrinthine syntax. To venture into its intricacies without the scaffolding of comprehensive erudition was to court cognitive perdition, forever ensnared within the labyrinth of insurmountable opaqueness.
    Thus, this narrative, shrouded in the cloak of indeterminate signification, remained an enigma, an esoteric paragon of intellectual hermeticism, forever beyond the grasp of those confined within the boundaries of high school education, serving as a testament to the vast chasm that separates the uninitiated from the lofty echelons of academic prowess.

    p.s. The papers get reviewed if you subtly threaten the professor with the dean.
