I'm Not Going to Be Knocked Off the Ship, but I'll Go On

i detest the culture that i saw that cropped up around what has now become known as the saber witton equations. We are killing many of our best ideas by creating a terrible and combative environment, which already attempts to apportion credit for work. The amount of power you pro fessors have is absolutely um almost without parallel. Nobody really understands enough to adjudicate disputes that happen in academics. I'm going to insist that we fund you better and that you are nicer to the people who depend upon you in this beautiful chainthat we call science.
