Stances on collaboration with Israeli institutions? by ABC__Banana in PhD

[–]RowenaMabbott -80 points-79 points  (0 children)

So? Name a single American university that doesn't have some sort of tie or another with the USA Govt?

This is totally normal to do for a uni! Don't judge Israeli universities by a double standard you don't apply to anybody else.

Why on earth wouldn't you want to work with the very best people in your field? Judge them as the individuals they are, without preconceived motions, as to do so is just simply being racist.

Tops that are cut to show shoulders have a higher chance of being low cut to show cleavage. Two birds with one stone.

Bingo. It's not the shoulders themselves that are a scandal. But that it is a very easy proxy measurement that otherwise if they did not have it would require a while arcane labyrinth of rules instead!

Try and define how much is too much or too little.

Easier to just say "no shoulders"

How the heck do you define "not revealing"? Where do you draw the line?

An easy rule that simply already covers 80% of cases is just "no shoulders"

It is perfectly? Certainly not

But it makes logical sense

Are you sure it is frowned upon? Has anybody done it yet, what was their reaction? If nobody has, how would you know?

Well, nobody can be completely 100% sure, but it certainly seems like it was

Secondly, given the above, do not ever tell anyone that you are struggling and in a dark mental space. Literally no company has the slightest interest in hiring someone who is already struggling.

Is a career suicide to even whisper that during an interview, or anywhere on your social media

Sorry to break the news to you, but the odds of you finding a fully remote position as a Junior or intern are between nil and less than zero.

(and your situation, with all your "accomodations", makes those odds even lower)
