Fun Definitely Not Made Up Fact: The sea-stars that you find on the beach are actually the disembodied heads sent out like probes by one mega-mother-sea-star that sits miles away at the bottom of the ocean, biding her time until she can finally resurface and enslave whats left of humanity.
That's because you're just far too old, and not down with the zoomers and their extremely flurgid memes. Or possibly you're not a paleontology enjoyer.
This is more like generation alpha, isn’t it? From my experience, that’s the most useless generation so far and I say it about every generation younger than me
Not in my experience. My 3 years old nieces doesn’t contribute more to society today than she did last year. I admit it’s kind of true for GenZ but not even all of them. GenA on the other hand is a whole different story
It results in decreased function of the iris and pupil, affecting the physical eye and visualization.
When the iris becomes deformed, it will disarrange the control of light coming in leading to blurred vision and finding it hard to visually focus.
From what I’m finding it either has no effect or bad effects but never good effects like better night vision so you just got lied to or they said that as a joke and you didn’t get it.
It depends. They both contract, but if the second pupil is small, it doesn’t matter. I have a small one, and it just causes uveitis every once in a while. I went half my life without even noticing it.
You can become sensitive to light, and the irritation can slowly cause blindness. That’s pretty much it
One fun thing: if you ever get uveitis, wearing an eye patch won’t work. Your eye will still try to dilate with your other eye. Also your pupil/s will stretch like in the pictures.
Academic publishing is in a very weird place and is very, very political. Its true that authors have to pay to have their papers published in most journals or conferences after they’ve been accepted, but like all things academic, this is highly dependent on the field. Some universities will reimburse professors publishing costs, others need to pay out of pocket or with grant/public funding.
While its true that there are open-access journals and conferences without such costs, I would wager that most well known researchers would avoid such avenues of publication due to prestige. The larger journals and conferences have review boards where the top scientists in the world sit on them. As a potential published author with such an outlet, its a great honor to even be considered. Most researchers don’t want to take the risk of going with a less prestigious outlet if it will run the risk of smearing their image or damaging their ability to publish in better outlets in the future.

While its true that there are open-access journals and conferences without such costs
To publish open access normally costs upwards of $3k USD as well. There’s practically no point in the publishing chain where academics aren’t getting screwed.
Let’s also not forget that you have to review other people’s papers for the journal for free.
They’d have to lie about who they slept with, and I expect the other person might have something to say about that if it was not true.
I wonder if they verified each claim from both sides.
Edit: it’s a scientific paper, so there’s no need to wonder!
In fig. 2, and in all discussions presented here, all romantic and sexual relationship nominations linking students are included, whether or not the nomination from i to j was reciprocated with a nomination from j to i.
Then it’s certainly mostly bullshit. Male students tend to massively exaggerate when they tell stories about how many sexual relationships they had. Source: I was a male student.
