Had a 3 page paper I had to write, ended up being just over 14 pages, 16 after the footnotes were added.

I had to completely rewrite it because I knew my prof wasn’t going to read that paper, but when I turned in the assignment I turned in both of them.

“Murder your darlings” as they say in writing.

Just did exactly that in a recently accepted paper. A comments from a reviewer made us notice that a certain phenomenon was greatly exaggerated by low-res theoretical calculations and that it actually was barely noticeable. I just added “weakly” to the paragraph describing that phenomenon. Won’t delete shit.
