@hacks4pancakes Unfortunately, "cyber" is a big income generator at the moment. Give it 12 months and it'll be AI.

@hacks4pancakes @neurovagrant They’ve been doing the same to healthcare workers for years (to the point I ended deleting my socials and stopped replying to emails).

@hacks4pancakes I don't really understand why other universities push their students to do these sorts of 'studies'. Its not even advancing the field in any meaningful way, just an all round waste for everyone involved.

@SnoozyRests the most generous view I can come up with is that it is a deceitful attempt at getting students to "network", since that is how jobs are mostly obtained.
