>>14366766>How do you deal with mediocrity?Not a sciencefag just lurking and living poorly in my shithole with no love for science or desice to change . . .
>Even if you have published to some minor degree, you still will never compare to the titans of your field. 1. competing in art is stupid
2. science is not a job
3. you're competing with dead people
1.1 science is no different than art, it might look more sufisticated on the surfice until you dig deeper and find the limitations place on by your own species such as money, sex, social status, unless you're genius and planning on reinventing the wheel and the hot water from the bottom to the top, you need money to do relevant experiments
2.1 science is not a job, programming is not a job, engineering is not a job, they call you hero today, the other day someone or crisis or war cuts of the internet supply, the electric supply, the life is not about survival, life is about fun supply and your efforts become irrelevant as more and more people switch focus to buying more toilet paper rolls than one will ever need in a lifetime
3.1 and you're losing, you can't beat the classics, unless you were born in a very specific eventful timeline that set the grounds for all the next generations
4 you'll always be mediocre, everyone will, and the ones who actually did something of value would rather be alive than dead, so they failed also, we all failed, no one succeeded at all, and that's sad, but at least . . . we have energy drinks and shit
