Solution is to publish data, not „papers“ first and assign it a replication score - how many times it was verified by independent research.
The paper can follow with the explanation, but citations will no longer be important - what will matter is the contribution to the replication score (will also work as an incentive to confirm other‘s results).
Looking up the math a little bit, and assuming that in order to curve space-time enough to achieve 12000g you would need a mass that is 12000 times the earth's mass, the Schwarzschild radius for such a mass is 106m.

So, if the observed object was less than 212m across, it could not have appeared to accelerate at 12000g by curving space-time without collapsing into a black hole.
It is cultivated - just by small growers, not by massive industrial combines. Which I guess counts as “not cultivated” these days.
That makes sense. The tough part is that the real solution is uplifting Eastern European countries, but that's a huge challenge. In the short-term, is the cost of property theft worth creating a more draconian society? That's the absolute worst possible solution, imo.

This has nothing to do with gatekeeping. I agree that the current publication and incentive system is broken, but it's completely unrelated to the question if outsiders are being published. The reason why you see very little work from outsiders is because research is difficult. It typically requires years of full time dedicated work, you can't just do it on the side. Moreover, you need to first study and understand the field to identify the gaps. If you try to identify gaps on your own, you are highly likely to go off into a direction which is completely irrelevant.

BTW I can tell you the the vast majority of researchers are not "enthralled" by the system, but highly critical. They simply don't have a choice but to work with it.
This is an extremely comical take because Twitch is notorious for banning creators from their platform for their behavior and content off-platform that runs afoul of Twitch rules.

> A truck costs tens of thousands of dollars.

Only if you insist on buying new, you'll pay a lot. My pickup is about as big as it gets (4 door, 8ft bed, diesel dually) and it didn't cost tens of thousands since I bought an older one.

Diesels don't depreciate that much, so I'll probably get most of it back whenever I sell.

I’m not really a backend dev, I do iOS but have to run and work on some docker services from time to time. I had quite a lot of issues early on, not with docker itself but with third party images. I’ve been running everything on a remote ubuntu box for the interim but plan to check out the situation again in a few months.

You haven't answered my scenario. I'm just asking if in those circumstances I've described, if you'd still feel at ease and totally happy going to work pretending like none of it. Or if that knowledge of the hate your manager exhibits for people of your kind would make you resent working with them?

This is the first thing I need to know, because I personally would not be able to walk in to work motivated and energetic after that, I'd be very uncomfortable from that point on working under that manager knowing what I now know is their opinion of people like me.

If you'd be fine with this and have no issue going back to work for that manager. Well it'll be hard for us to agree on anything that follows.

Now if this would also make you uncomfortable, we can move to the next point, which is, how should this situation be resolved? You now have a manager making their subordinate uncomfortable at work. They do so because of their publicly expressed hate, disdain, resentment and desire to oppress people of the same kind as the subordinate.

As the employer, what do you think would be the right solution here?

P.S.: I'm asking in good faith, I think it's a complex situation, I'm not saying that firing the manager is the best course of action, but it does seem like one way to solve the issue, so I'm actually curious to hear pros/cons and alternatives.
Ex Nokia here, yes the Symbian SDKs required high comfort with C and C++ development environments on Windows, then there was Symbian C++ dialect.

Also it did not help that the SDK was rebooted like 4 times.

Initially based on Metrowerks, coupled with a mix of Perl and batch files, rebooted twice into Eclipse based IDEs, and finally the QtCreator initial effort before the burning platforms memo happened.

Still, it was still much more friendly than dealing with NDK issues on Android.

> Time to do that most desperate of things, actually read past the abstract.

Hmm. Yes, that's a good idea.

> Third, this was rating an applicant for a third party, not actually hiring an applicant for them self, ppl act different when they have no skin in the game

Hmm...from the article:

"Real-world data ratify our conclusion about female hiring advantage. Research on actual hiring shows female Ph.D.s are disproportionately less likely to apply for tenure-track positions, but if they do apply, they are more likely to be hired (16, 30–34),...

Thus, real-world hiring data showing a preference for women, inherently confounded and open to multiple interpretations because of lack of controls on applicant quality, experience, and lifestyle, are consistent with our experimental findings."

So this was real world data of a preference confirmed by the experiment.

What's interesting is the amount of pushback this study has received compared to the widely acclaimed "lab manager" study that "proves" women are discriminated against, which is much weaker (far less data), less well-designed, also exclusively from academia (and from different disciplines than the ones with the high imbalances!) and without the counterpart of real-world data.

Hmm.

Im not sure prosecuting academics is particularly obvious: you'd need to prove malicious intent (rather than ignorance) which is always difficult.

For me a better solution would be to properly incentivise replication work and solid scientific principles. If repeating an experiment and getting a contradictory result carried the same kudos as running the original experiment then I think we'd be in a healthier place. Similarly if doing the 'scientific grind work' of working out mistakes in experimental practice that can affect results and, ultimately, our understanding of the universe around us.

I think an analogy with software development works pretty well: often the incentives point towards adding new features above all else. Rarely is sitting down and grinding through the litany of small bugs prioritised, but as any dev will tell you doing that grind work is as important otherwise you'll run in to a wall of technical debt and the whole thing will come tumbling down.
I keep giving extreme examples because they DO prove my point: what we're really debating is what the line is regarding how offensive someone's behavior is, not whether it's done at work or not.

You almost make it sound like "Bob" dropped an essay on the ground and someone else happened to walk by, pick it up and publish it. Because in the real world if Bob wrote a paperback titled "Women are Bad for Democracy and They Shouldn't Be Able to Vote", did press junkets about this book, and actively encouraged people to buy it, then yes, he'd get fired by pretty much every company in this country and very few people would have an issue with that.

Compression speed is around 2 KB/sec.

The figure is given in nncp_v2.1.pdf. This is 1000x slower than xz, which in turn is 1000x slower than gzip.

I have always wondered if a compression service could be a viable commercial offering and with NNCP rates and its compression speed, it looks like it could! That's for cases when you need to really compress the heck out of something, e.g. prior to distributing a large static piece of data to a very large number of recipients. I think there was a service like this, used by AAA game developers for distributing patches, but it didn't take because it had a very slow decompression... and, now reading further through the paper, it looks like an issue with NNCP too -

The NNCP v2 decompression speed is similar to its compression speed.

So it's a no-go for my brilliant and lazy startup idea, but fascinating stuff nonetheless.

Wittgenstein was one of the richest heirs in Europe so at the least he had all the time in the world, and lived in a time with such little competition that they gave him a PhD for writing a non-academic book none of them understood.

Looking at his biography, you feel like people were just hanging out with him because he was rich, since his personality was so bad and he clearly hated everyone he ever met.

> All that is going to happen if Epic gets their own store is Epic will be collecting the 30% rather than Apple

News flash, Epic already runs a store, and competes with another store (Steam) which takes a 30% cut. How much of a cut does Epic take there? 12%.

There is a well known example of Epic in a similar situation specifically not doing what you say they will, so why assume they will do that? Or are you arguing without knowing this fairly common knowledge of this case?

> the user will get apps that are poorly designed, chew battery, and don’t conform to the UX standards that Apple has set

These are games. They already don't conform to the UI standards. They already chew battery by the nature of what they do, not because they are inefficient. That said, being the authors of the Unreal Engine, Epic is in a key position to make changes so the engine works better with iPhone norms, performs better, and uses less battery and many games would benefit from that. If only Epic had more financial incentive to focus work on the iOS platform...

> and exploit undocumented APIs which change from iOS version to version.

Doubtful. They need to make sure their product is stable across a wide swatch of iOS devices, as individual game makers that license their product will have different support policies and targets. You don't make a widely portable and stable engine across multiple architectures and operating systems by using hidden and unstable APIs unless you have some assurance they aren't going away.

> Epic will blame Apple for all these problems, Apple will blame Epic for not doing sufficient QC, and we’ll be back in court with various store managers demanding that Apple stop changing things.

The blaming I see going on is people that don't really understand the market, the problems, or the incentives making wild conjectures that not only aren't backed up by anything, whether that be logic or evidence, but seem to run counter to that.

> If you want third party stores, there’s the Android ecosystem.

They're being sued too. They take the same cut. You can put an alternate store on Android, but you can't have it function with the same permissions (you need to manually approve each install, and it can't auto-update). This is what keeps third party stores from actually being a reality there. I don't consider secondary stores that ship with the phone on purchase and are part of the customer OS shipped "third party", and that's what has to be done to really compete on the same level as the Play store, and even then, it's not like they're used much. This is all about control and Apple not wanting to give up that very lucrative 30% cut of in app purchases, and subscriptions.

Babelfish like technology would be a dream come true for me. At this point in time, google translate speech recognition works well when the speaker speaks a bit slow and uses simple sentences. The translation is the same, works well for simple sentences even though the translations in my language sound weird because it uses the equivalent of old English. There is still a way to go before speech recognition can recognize fast speech with colloquialisms, and probably even a longer way to go before it can translate longer sentences with abstractions into something that is clear and concise in the target language.
I think the issue with this analogy is: the new and improved Tesla Model S is hugely popular and profitable, while the academic papers that later revisit and improve upon those initial (high impact but less accurate) findings receive little attention or grant support, and consequently the "inaccuracies" persist.

> There's no such thing as "physics defying". There's physics we understand, and physics we don't understand.

There's no such thing as physics defying phenomena that actually happened. But there are lots of phenomena which don't happen that would be physics defying if they did. For example, a device I claim to produce energy out of nothing is physics defying: it doesn't happen.

And more data is not in itself a good thing. If you have low quality data, then sometimes the most scientifically honest thing to do is to throw it away - we don't have infinite energy to explore every shred of information and ascertain it's trustworthiness. For the same reason physicists or doctors don't go investigating every claim of a miracle or faith healing, they shouldn't investigate every blip on the radar.

Releasing dumps of such data and insinuating that it's meaningful (while actually saying the truth, that it's simply unexplained, which is the default state of data) is generally against the public interest.
Not my turf but I'll chime in.

In the past people who did science could do so with less personally on the line. In the early days you had men of letters like Cavendish who didn't really need to care if you liked what he wrote, he'd be fine without any grants. That obviously doesn't work for everyone, but then the tenure system developed for a similar reason: you have to be able to follow an unproductive path sometimes without starving. And that can mean unproductive in that you don't find anything or in that your peers don't rate your work. There'd be a gap between being a young researcher and tenured, sure.

Nowadays there's an army of precariously employed phds and postdocs. Publish or perish is a trope. People get really quite old while still being juniors in some sense, and during that time everyone is thinking "I have to not jeopardise my career".

When you have a system where all the agents are under huge pressure, they adapt in certain ways: take safer bets, write more papers from each experiment, cooperate with others for mutual gain, congregate around previous winners, generally more risk reducing behaviour.

Perhaps the thing to do is make a hard barrier: everyone who wants to be a researcher needs to get tenure after undergrad, or not at all. (Or after masters or whatever, I wouldn't know.) Those people then get a grant for life. It will be hard to get one of these, but it will be clear if you have to give up. Lab assistants and other untenured staff know what they are negotiating for. Tenured young people can start a family and not have the rug pulled out when they write something interesting.
What I notice about video games is that they don't use any system UI[1], have to pay artists to make everything, don't respect accessibility settings etc, and yet video game studios exist in many more countries than other successful consumer software companies, and they're basically the only kind of software people actually like using enough to emulate.
