Case studies are not scientific evidence, they're well-documented anecdotes that suggest the need for scientific study.

Faculty are paid for doing peer review just like we're paid for publishing. We're not paid directly for each of either, but both publishing (research) and peer review (service to the field) are stipulated within our contracts. Arxiv is also free to upload to and isn't a journal with publication fees.

Professors literally get like $0.03 per copy of a book sold. Your professors make you buy their book because no one else teaches the class like they can. It's their expertise that you're paying for when you go to college to study under them. They're making sure that you have something related to that that lasts.

They're trained on scientific writing, and we em dashes all the time in scientific writing.

Wankpuffin is actually a specific example (given within the paper) of British vulgarity considered in this study.

Even somewhere warmer, I'm a 2 year-round, too. I just have one very cool sheet that I use in the summer.

Nothing in the Frontiers is reputable among scientists. It gets linked a lot on Reddit because it's open access, but scientists tend to view it as essentially the not-actually-peer-reviewed equivalent of a preprint. In the past, if all reviewers recommend rejection at Frontiers, the editor would be forcibly assigned new reviewers by the publishing staff. This would continue until the manuscript would get accepted. Not sure if that's still the same (I've blocked all Frontiers emails), but it's not correct to call a Frontiers journal a major reputable journal.

The Gen Z bit is accurate, at least for current college students. I'm amazed at how little they do, how few relationships they have, etc. I actually feel quite bad for them.

Maybe, but at least some folks have less of it. Me, for example. On Reddit, I generally assumed most folks were from the US, or bots. On here, I generally assume folks are equally--if not more--likely to be from a country in Europe, or Canada. I also see way more German representation here than I did on Reddit.

I actually don't know the way you're supposed to beat Super Metroid "correctly." I've always done what I ended up learning was a major sequence break resulting from a bunch of bomb jumps to get the power bomb early, and use that to get some other stuff that allows me to beat the game out of order.

I also never start Metroid Prime without immediately getting the double jump. I used to be up there on speed running that game. I don't play the player's choice or switch versions whenever I decide to crack it out. The original was literal perfection.
