Yes, but there’s certainly a disconnect here between what school entrained us to believe and what “real life” cares about, which is maybe the point here.
Not a new idea, I know, but watching the world upend itself over some tech “progress” highlights this gulf, not to mention how much school scepticism was right, to some extent, all along.
When writing an academic paper you should be using direct sources. Even when sourcing info from a research paper you shouldn’t reference something in the paper that is cited from another source you should go to that source to cite it.
Its not a disconnect, in the sense of accidental misalignment.
Its literally rules for thee and not for me.
A teacher of a millennial who chastized them for citing the source wikipedia cites… would likely be the same person who is today enraptured by AI, if not directly, at least in their retirement portfolio.
… they are in fact actively full of shit, and most of them know it.
Boomers broadly do not personally follow the principles they demand others follow.
At least a mindless Alpha Ipad baby or TikTok brainrotted Gen Z wouldn’t gaslight you into pretending what they are doing thoughtlessly or dubiously is actually just common sense and you are infact a completely invalid failure of a person if you disagree.
