Win-Win with Liv Boeree

NOTE

Maintaining the Integrity of Scientific Pursuit

When the primary goal shifts from producing quality work to merely meeting targets, the essence of the pursuit is compromised. In the scientific community, the focus has transitioned from conducting good research to churning out papers for funding. This shift has led individuals to be entrapped in a cycle where the incentive to produce work of genuine value is overshadowed by the need to meet external demands. Despite the desire to deviate from this pattern, individuals are compelled to conform to maintain their position. Only those with abundant resources and unwavering resilience can truly pursue research aligned with their beliefs. Admiration is directed towards individuals, such as Stephen Wolfram, who prioritize scientific exploration in its purest form, embodying the ideals of scholars detached from external pressures in their pursuit of uncovering knowledge.
