@tomstafford Good grief---that's a lot of blood on the floor.

@PaulGrahamRaven it's an era of resource constriction. This is the definitive scene report imo https://voicesofacademia.com/2024/04/05/its-not-your-fault-that-academic-life-is-getting-harder-by-glen-ohara/

@tomstafford Yeah, feels familiar. Similar scenes here in Sweden, though much less severe, as the social fabric is nowhere near so shredded. Nonetheless, I'm increasingly seeing my own involuntary exit from the sector as something of a bullet dodged; better to leave under your own steam than be thrown out as part of a big batch.
