I found this on the site

I haven't read through the whole thing but basically its a letter from PhD students and postdocs at the Max-Planck Institute complaining to the president of the Max-Planck Society about the lack of future prospects in their field. I'm just skimming thru the whole thing. So here are a few of their complaints:

>Lack of permanent positions in the academic system
>Exploitation of young scientists by their professors
>Young scientist basically used as a cheap labor force
>Only research output is honored/rewarded, but not teaching
>Emphasis on only high impact publications, publication becomes a rat-race

Even mothafucking Max-Planck Institute students face the same fuckin problem. So meme universities are probably even fucking worse.

I think you can start with some aspects of intelligence like spatial rotation or memorisation.
>show them an image with some abstract images
>they pick from a number of flashcards
>give them a reward like food if they get it right
>breed the ones with the highest performance
At each generation you can even study the differences in the brain structures.
