There will be a lot of panic but The world now would be more beautiful for everyone and more tough for some.There will be a lot of job opportunities and eventually a lot of happy faces. Let's see how.No Google means more libraries everywhere. Infrastructure people and librarians can shout a hurrah.No Quora. Blogs will be replaced by magazines articles or newspapers. More quality content for the masses, as crap gets rejected before printing. Who knows more newspaper and magazines may crop up.People all over the world conducting online courses would hire more and more trainers for class room sessions. More Education centers also means more education for all who don't have a laptop with them.Children ruining their childhood on different apps would go play in the streets with other real children. Since we are dealing with hypothesis, who know they might even end up in a library. :)Every online gamer would be seen on the court or the nearby community play grounds.People like me who like movies would actually go and visit a theater or rent a movie. More theaters and more DVD parlors and entertainment based hangouts. More time to spend with friends and family. Since torrent sites will now be unavailable. :(There will be new found respect for data as everything will now not be stored on the cloud servers automatically and can now evaporate if not tackled carefully.Facebook/whatsapp are no longer with us. People are going to now know their friends. And maybe group chats will have a word from everyone.No YouTube. People will look for more bands to see them LIVE. Musicians all over will now have a live audience. People will conduct sessions on the talent they want to spread,Live.Gmail is no longer with us. Postmen will have their lost respect replaced in the society.No porn sites for underage children. Elders can rent a DVD ;)There's a flipside to this No internet thing as well, but let's just concentrate on the positive for now.AND, I will freak out on torrents and create a library that would last me a lifetime. Movies, Anime, TV series, etc. And just FYI I have a few friends who will be helping me out with all the downloading and a life time of data sharing.Cheers!!
It's different for everyone, so I can only speak for myself, but I find it pretty amazing.I usually go to work at around 11am to avoid the traffic, solve interesting problems for a few hours with some of the brightest minds I have ever known, and go home at 6 or 7pm.Unlike many other professions, most of us love what we do, and we don't really get "Monday mornings". Sure, it'd nice to be able to go out into the California sun and do some SCUBA diving or stay home and play music, but work isn't too bad either.I don't usually think about work outside of work hours, so any time after 7 is mine, and weekends are all mine, and making a SE salary means I can do a lot of fun things without worrying about money too much, as long as I don't buy a private jet or a Ferrari or anything like that (buying a small private propeller airplane - which is much cheaper than a Ferrari, is within budget, but I like to save money). We are usually more limited by time instead of money. SE won't make you filthy rich, but will make you very comfortable financially.We also enjoy some of the best benefits - all the standard health stuff, and a lot of times free food, etc. But IMHO the best part is flexible hours - we come and go any time we want (though most companies define "core hours" where everyone has to be in for meetings, etc).
If we are talking here about any kind of scientific “research” paper, done as part of an academic program, and hiding the fact that it isn’t your own work:That’s cheating, and is the sort of thing that the research world takes very seriously.It’s not just a matter of who gets credit for the results. The progress of science depends on the honesty of researchers. Not every reported result will be replicated by others, and fake reports cause immense trouble. If you turn a paper in with your name on it, you are asserting that you did the work and you are taking responsibility for the correctness of the results. Honest mistakes can be tolerated, but not fraud. So:You may not get caught. If you do, your career as a researcher is probably over, maybe before it even begins. Think about it.If the service in question is taking your results and just putting them into more understandable language, and if you’re sure they didn’t mangle the meaning or leave out essential qualifiers and caveats, then it might be OK.If you think it’s OK, put a disclaimer in the paper — something like this:This paper represents my own research results, but the presentation was heavily edited by “Zippy Research Papers and Auto Repair, Inc.”That might not help the paper get accepted, but at least it’s honest. If you present such a paper as your own work and writing, that’s still fraud, and I, for one, would deal very harshly with that if you were my student.
