Apr 14, 2023 at 14:20 comment added Bryan Krause @MadFunctions I've seen several times here where people post "my advisor didn't help me at all" and with a bit of clarification it turns out that their advisor led them the whole way without them realizing it. The advice in your update is good advice.
Apr 14, 2023 at 10:51 comment added Dark_Witch Things like that happen all the time. Advisors who don't listen to their students, tell them that they are wrong "without giving them convincing reasons". Then the student takes an independent approach, and gets his/her work recognized by a reputable conference the advisor reacts in an unethical way. Abusing his/her authority by offering to be an author in order to give the student the degree and write them a RL. In my part of the world, this happens a lot! - academia sucks bc lots of academics are conformists and encourage younger folks to accept being exploited to get ahead.

Apr 12, 2023 at 14:52 comment added Bryan Krause @MadFunctions Getting only one side of the story, I'm hesitant to suggest either way. Perhaps there's a somewhat neutral third party you could consult?
