B-b-but it clearly says right there in the todo, that's good enough, r-r-right?!
I also see deleted comments, I guess by the user. Which is odd, bc like if they wanted to remove it that's their choice I suppose, but Lemmy still shows me reply notifications, but then when I go to read it, it's gone!?
git 'er done!
Jobs seem more about wanking off the bosses ego than anything else ๐คท .
Don't be silly.
Other places do not exist, obvi.
Ngl, the second path looks more fun though - cowabunga my dudes!:-P
Oh absolutely. And this being in academia, they likely will lose their job over it - like that Harvard professor who was accused of a highly similar form of plagiarism (borrowing long stretches of text while failing to cite the original source material). I was pointing out the absurdity of not doing that for politicians and CEOs:-(.
They might literally have had some psychological issue, where they were trying to see how far they could push it without being caught.
Or this whole article could be a hit job - maybe the original thesis literally wrapped these sections with text saying "here is an example of a plausible attempt at plagiarism that would not get caught today - please do not quote me out of context here, m'kay?". The devil is in the details, and I for one am not volunteering to put in the amount of effort it would take to properly judge this person.
Although I bet their bosses are, now.
This does seem the most likely explanation. But... my instance seems to be aware of the deletion at least, and yet still chooses to show it. It could show the old message, it could remove it entirely and show no notification, it could get fancy and show nothing by default but then upon requesting addition information show it anyway... but out of all the various possibilities, it chooses the single most annoying one? ๐
