26% isn’t concerning to anyone with a brain unless you’re doing some real novel shit. That moronic program will toss that out for citing a title.

For example, Turnitin is known to flag scripts and code a lot because of all the boilerplate.

this can’t be real

Have you ever worked in academia? This kind of email could definitely be real, not saying this one necessarily is though
dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 16 hours ago
I have never worked in academia, but I’ve spent time around academics and have read plenty of emails in both academic and corporate contexts … this particular one looks fake, even if the circumstances of plagiarism are common - this just not seem like how a thesis adviser would address this kind of plagiarism with a grad student

who signs an email with “first supervisor”?
dandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zone 15 hours ago
it could be an internal organizational title, but it definitely doesn’t sound like an academic position and not a part of a normal email signature either

Googled the Professor, found plenty of Screenshots like this and an article from 2022

Wait but… is that actually a thing in Kenya? I only have heard first hand accounts of school systems in a handful of countries in Africa (not Kenya, mostly west side) but consistently I’ve been shocked by either the severity of punishment for basically any form of failure or dishonor or for the prevalence of fear as the administrative motivator-of-choice. (One was just a few months ago I think in c/offmychest where a high schooler was describing their beatings for tardiness, bad grades, and other minor infractions. I think I commented on it.) Maybe she’s for real?

First the rainbow tables, now this. This must be an interesting thesis, even if its academic value might be … questionable.

Would it actually be an arrestsble offence though?

Depends on the country, I think some actually do criminally punish fraud on the public research dime.
I know there are countries where the government can revoke your PhD if you fuck up enough.

Okay, please someone explain this video to me. Is samir blind? Is this like, a test, to see if a blind man can drive with a navigator? Why is there a navigator telling him about medium lefts? Should a driver not be able to see a medium left coming up? What is happening here?

Tl;Dr: it’s heavily edited and posted by a rival to discredit them.

Adding on, something I didn’t realize for a while is that the driver practices the course and writes their own instructions. Then the co-pilot relays during the race.
