Every time I use a new one of these I have to ask if the horrible groans it makes is normal or if the thing is malfunctioning.

I don't think I've ever done fresh ethanol every time. In my experience as long as you have your ethanol working stock in a small enough container you use it and replenish it quickly enough to not have to worry about when exactly it was made.

For the price of this you could hire 4 postdocs at NIH minimums. I don't understand in what world would this be cheaper than just hiring actual experts.

Look into stuff designed for camping. A lot of that stuff has also gone towards rechargeable or solar panels, but you can still find ones that are battery powered fairly easily. Or at least you could when I was doing it a few years ago.

I'm totally fine with assessing a 5 minute major for it, but imo intentionality should factor in when giving out game misconducts. There's a difference between what was meant as dirty hit and one just coming in from a bad angle.

Everyone outside of academics is always so surprised by how little you make with a PhD. They not only think faculty make more than they do, they also didn't realize there was the in-between step of a postdoc.
