inside you there are two wolves. the science enthusiast wolf is beyond overeager and wants to pick every elective on the course list. the perpetually burnt out wolf is begging you to choose the minimum number of credits needed to graduate.

wholeheartedly and with as much gentleness as possible, i truly think there needs to be more discussion about downpour in the community as it is now. for a variety of reasons.

what r ur opinions on downpour hunters rot and how well or not u think it connects to basegame? :0
Mm, that's a good question. I have mixed feelings about this.
On the one hand, unexpectedly encountering the Hunter Long Legs for the first time was one of the most memorable moments of my Gourmand playthrough, and I enjoy the touch of horror it adds to the campaign. And I can't think of anything in vanilla that's incompatible with the idea that the Hunter's illness is a form of the Rot, thematically or concretely. Five Pebbles' comments on the matter are certainly ambiguous enough to accommodate the theory, though they could just as easily apply to a mundane cancer.
At the same time, there is a part of me that feels that the nature of Hunter's illness was something better left up to the imagination. The lore of vanilla Rain World is full of omissions—loose ends, unexplained circumstances, cryptic references to concepts beyond the player's awareness. These omissions create the illusion of a world much larger than the one story we as players get to see. On the contrary, in stories where all the elements eventually connect back to each other and the characters being focused on, the world tends to feel constructed, artificial. I guess I can't help but feel that the decision to explain Hunter's illness in terms of an already-established story element (the Rot) makes the world of Rain World feel smaller, less alive in this sense.
(Thanks for the ask!)

It's funny when people get really really mad when you don't view slugcats as almost-people or super intelligent when almost all evidence for that kinda interpretation comes from MSC, a fan-made and non-canon extension of Rainworld people are completely free to either build off of or disregard. Like it or not MSC handles slugcats very differently from base game and people can like MSC and dislike that vibe at the same time

incredible that I even ever imagined I'd be able to do a cv, research interest, AND personal motivation in 6 hours because today I'm just trying to think of a personal motivation letter and I cannot think of fuck about shit

an acquaintance of mine, who i met through a mutual friend, casually admitted that he used chatGPT to help with his master's thesis (in the humanities); and when i curtly said "i don't think that's good" he was like, "oh it was just to give me some ideas and to help me write the introduction and conclusion.. and besides since i'm not going to write a PhD it was completely unnecessary anyway for me to be forced to write a thesis anyway"
i'm not going to report him or anything but it legitimately is so upsetting to me that someone with this kind of attitude now works as a high school teacher
Oof, that is rough, and on top of the substantive issue, there is something really tactless about one person admitting to you with a lot of chill that they cheated, when you yourself put in the work. It lacks some decency imo. It is indeed very upsetting, and I am sorry that you met someone with this little consideration for (your) academic work.
Obviously the first point is not valid: "to get some ideas" is literally the absolute worst use of ChatGPT or any AI ever, I stand by this and will die on that hill. "to write the introduction and conclusion": the most charitable interpretation would be "to help me rephrase stuff", but I am going to guess he meant "to tell me what to put in the introduction and conclusion", which is also bad. Introduction and conclusion are not summaries of the content, nor are they vapid fluff. There is proper content to put in both of them. If your intro/conclusion ends up feeling like a rehash or an empty shell, folks, you're doing it wrong. It's ok, we've all been there, but it needs to be changed.
As for the "I won't do a PhD anyway"... Something in me balks at that, but I have to sit down and consider if it's internalized elitism or not. I think it depends why you do a Masters, and from my experience it varies from country to country. In France, people go have a Masters because Undergrads are shorter, and you often are not competitive on the job market with a just an Undergrad. The vast majority indeed don't want to do any research, and therefore are not required to - you often can do an internship instead. But even in countries where Masters are more of a choice, an option rather than something that you naturally have to do, obviously not everyone will go into research. Still, the point of going one step above the undergrad is that it should then truly mean something. The masters is not a 5th year of undergrad, I think it is acceptable to require of MSc Graduates a different, wider skillset than from Undergrad Graduates. And part of that skillset is the ability to conduct an independent, small research project. The MSc theses expectations are not even close to a PhD thesis expectations anyway, I would argue they are barely the same exercise (in France, they do not even have the same name). The goal is not to show that you can be a good researcher, it's to show that you can develop originally ideas, think critically of the current state of knowledge, knows how to write convincingly about a complex topic, and have implicit understanding of epistemology, whether you realize it or not (aka you know how to know things, or you know at least one way to know things and understand the world).
These are all transferable skills, and your friend should sit down with a PhD researcher, to understand how little there actually is to do with a classic MSc thesis (or a mémoire as well it in French) and an actual PhD thesis.

Currently distracted in reading through an article called "Study Biomedicine or Biomedical Sciences: All you need to know" for an OC who is studying to be a research scientist. I am filled with confusion at the stuff I'm reading.
