Actually completely agree with you about not making yourself a coward, a fool and a fraud.
I should have been clearer. If you want to stay in academia, not debasing yourself comes at a high cost in terms of your career. It is better to leave than to debase yourself.
Academia is a system worth destroying. Participate in its destruction. Leave. There are so many exciting opportunities to continue doing meaningful work outside of universities and research institutes.

- Beldin 5y agoThere certainly are aspects of academia that are overdue for improvement. However, for folks with a CS PhD degree, my guess is that moving out of academia has a high chance of you ending up contributing to surveillance capitalism. Now there's a system worth destroying.
