Is Evidence-based Medicine a Joke?
The medical profession often brings to mind the image of the proverbial ostrich: burying its head in the sand, hoping problems will disappear. While doctors claim to practice evidence-based medicine, there is a glaring oversight when it comes to mental illness. They routinely ignore the growing evidence that our thinking itself is a hypnotic process—that we are, in a sense, continually self-hypnotising through our inner dialogue. The profession’s lack of understanding about hypnosis and its mechanisms results in a reluctance to investigate this mystery. Rather than exploring how ego and self-hypnosis shape mental states, many in the field shy away, perhaps because it requires confronting their own egos. This avoidance is neither scientific nor professional.

What Nobody Tells You About Implementing University Software. AI-Generated.
In 2022, Ohio State University made a decision that stunned higher education technology circles. It abandoned its high-profile effort to implement Workday Student, a cloud-based student information system, after years of work and what outside analysts estimated to be tens of millions of dollars in sunk costs. The software was not defective. Workday is one of the most recognized names in enterprise technology. The problem was something harder to fix than a bug in the code.

Why Academic Writing Is the First to Break Under AI Rules
The first time I saw a student freeze in front of a blank document, it was not because the topic was hard. She already knew the material. The problem was the rules around the writing itself. She had lecture notes, three sources open, a half-finished outline, and one question that kept getting bigger every minute: what kind of help was still allowed?
