I was imagining a post-writing process akin to assigning a paper its DOI[0] or a book its cataloguing info. Citations as they are can be done by researchers without impacting the process because they're binary: Something either is cited or it isn't. It either contributed to the creation of the research or it didn't. This probably couldn't be done by the researchers, but you identified why: The citations are data but this would be metadata.

Definitely don't want to encourage papers to take even LONGER.

I read that he is anti capitalism. That's a can of worms that I should probably be more careful not to open. But I've often questioned if being able to get someone to pay you to do a thing was a good proxy to assess if something was worth doing. It might just be my ingrained protestant work ethic telling me so. It's something I've yet to figure out.

Evangelion is pretty polarizing, if you watch a couple of episodes and hate it , there’s nothing wrong with you.
Great read. Taking from my field (CS), I think a lot of papers suffer from the idea that you only are supposed to show "the interface", like, what the result is, what you achieved. The "how" or the "why" are sometimes neglected, regarded merely as a "technicality" to account for the rigorous mathematical framework that "must be there".

There is little effort in making your results understandable and easy to replicate. Academia values paper production, which requires convincing peer reviewers that your results are not trivial and are worth publishing. Contrary to what the essay states, I don't think many scientists today think their research is "incremental". In fact, this word is used in many places as a derogatory term to indicate certain result doesn't contain enough novelty to deserve publication. Researchers are more incentivized to make their constructions and results as complicated and less accessible as possible.

This is not just a theory, this is something I've seen over and over throughout the years.

> People who support these kinds of activities are youthful and arrogant enough to have any form of humility about things they once passionately believed to be true turning out to be incorrect.

It's not just that. Usually the folks you'll see on forums like HN, or many other tech spaces, aren't the people who would have had trouble having their voice heard in a pre-internet age. They're usually the (generally not brown or black) children of wealthy families, many of them being 2nd generation scientists or engineers, and would have had privileged access to publishing houses, financial news, or high quality PSTN lines. This is why these spaces usually see so much more of the bad associated with these technologies than the good. The old status quo was very much a benefit to them, their families, and the milieu they grew up in.

Ask someone who grew up or had family in a country where PSTN over copper was a crapshoot and where sending exorbitantly expensive telegraphs and mail out of the country were really the only ways to get your voice heard, and you'll hear a very different story.

That's not to say Facebook, Twitter and other social media companies have society's best interest in mind (I doubt they do) nor that they are impartial operators (I really don't think they are), nor that they shouldn't be regulated as any other neutral communications carrier, but simply that this is one of the main reasons why tech forums tend to hate so much on social media.

You're right, we aren't concerned with ads. We don't want ads.

The problem isn't ads though, the problem is targeted advertising. there's absolutely nothing about RSS which prevents a person from sponsoring products, shilling merch, or any other form of advertising in line in their article or in the description of their video or even in their video or podcast.

Thinking these features disappear from client applications because of user demand is very naive. These client applications are usually designed by the same companies that want you to see ads because they sell ads to the sites you visit. RSS dying was no accident.

> The only reason RSS is alive today is because it’s dirt cheap to implement, and is supported out-of-the-box by most web development frameworks.

And thank god for that. Isn't that how it should be? User empowering tools should be frictionlessly available and ubiquitous. If they're used because they're always there, I can't come up with a more frictionless UX than that.

I think having the ability to focus on the things you care about the paper mostly is what would be more beneficial for all readers. You care more about an overview? You can easily find it (perhaps with graphics and walkthroughs), you care more about proofs? Then you can get them, what about code and experiments? And so on and so forth.

Readability and scalability is about making all this data available in the publication record, but easy to navigate for whoever is looking for whatever.
I cannot make "Rapid changes" on things in my team in weeks, I would wager that is the same for anyone on this forum, any bureaucracy (company or city) takes many months if not years to come up with plans for new policy, delaying the temporary relief to businesses to get inputs from all departments in the middle of the pandemic especially frontline staff like in Fire Service were working non stop does not seem realistically feasible.

My recollection is that temporary permissions only happened in late June 2020 [1] not before. It was announced always as temporary it was sold as a way to help businesses comply with aggressive seating capacity restrictions then and still make some money.

Those capacity restrictions are broadly relaxed now, additional costs for compliance to make it permanent, a change that is also bringing in additional new revenue - given capacity restrictions are largely removed doesn't seem unreasonably harsh to me. [2][3]

In practice there really is no valid use case for a blockchain. Sure, the idea of a distributed, trustless ledger is clever. But in practice the only people able to run full nodes and do transactions are the big stakeholders, either in terms of PoW mining pools or whatever proof of stake model is “totally coming soon”.

The transaction fees and excruciatingly small transaction throughout make on-chain transactions impractical for ordinary transactions, so now you’re back to running transactions through centralized exchanges, which undermines the security of the trust model.

I would not suggest this book to people who want to practice professional software deployments in 2021. This book is setting you up with a limited set of skills that are over-complicated and not best practice. For instance:

Server configuration. You should not be monkeying around with OS configs. If you do, it should only be in something like a Docker container, which is an easily tested/updated versioned immutable repeatable closed environment that runs everywhere. Monkeying with server configuration is a quick path to becoming a systems administrator, introducing unnecessary bugs, and increasing complexity. Try to avoid using software that is platform-specific (see next point).

Services with systemd. You should probably not use systemd to manage services. The primary reason is that you might not fully control the system you run services on if it's a multi-user system, and you need to have system control to modify systemd. It's also generally not portable outside of a Linux system. In the cloud you would ideally be using a deployment or orchestration system which has its own configuration format and method to run services, obsoleting systemd. The most portable service manager you could learn to use would be runit (even Busybox has an implementation of it), and after that, whatever one you choose that you can run as an unprivileged user. You can then run your preferred service manager as a systemd service, or in a container, etc.

Databases. Try not to get into monkeying around with backups and restores. Find some kind of managed provider that can do simple snapshots before deployments and easily restore them. Doing it manually is painful, and automation could be done better by a managed provider than trying to roll it yourself. However, you should be familiar with Flyway-style database deployments.

SELinux. You should not have to learn how it works to deploy. But if you do, get a dedicated book on it.

Storage concerns. Don't use networked filesystems for production. You can, in the sense that you can toast bread in the bathtub, but I wouldn't recommend it.

Backups and restores. Use versioned immutable artifacts in an artifact repository. Use a managed backup service/tool/etc for whatever doesn't work that way.

I don't see mention of caching proxies, reverse proxies, or CDNs. These can get tricky, from being careful about headers to preserving source IPs to invalidating stale caches to load balancing and resource limits.

I don't see any mention about continuous deployment, continuous integration, the 12 Factor App, or Immutable Infrastructure. All these are core components of modern deployments.

And as much as I hate it, Kubernetes is slowly of eating the entire world of modern systems, so learning how deployments work on it is essential to working in modern professional settings.

I mean you could run a database or a spreadsheet on a console, but it wouldn't be a good fit. The benefits of a console are the price-to-performance ratio for gaming applications, whereas the trade-offs on PCs are geared toward general purpose computing and browser speed. And as I've explained a few times in other threads, SoC and UMA architectures permit certain types of processing (such as destructible/deformable environments) to become feasibly performant. Ultimately a console process everything as a PC can, and vice versa, it's just consoles are more performance tuned for gaming, and the other has to cater for the lowest common denominator.

The underlying information is public knowledge even if nobody understands it.

It’s no different than any other kind of analysis of public information, the only risk is stock market manipulation. But the SEC has already decided that short sellers can do this kind of analysis and publish it.
So they would suffer the same decay all other web resources do? Broken links, no longer maintained tools, their opinionated choice (or lack of flexibility - which text + mathematical notation do have - if a set of stacks and data formats gets standardized).

Nobody is preventing scientists from publishing code and data in addition to & before the paper, which imho itself should be as conservative in format as possible to provide the most universal baseline for understanding, reproducibility, and reliability.

Designers will point out all sorts of usability studies.

The reality is that the art world, of which industrial design is an integral part, lives and dies around fads or "movements", which negate each other every few years. We're currently at tail end of a wave that preached flatness, leveraging the move from low-res to high-res screens to entrench itself as easier to implement. Now that the migration is near completion, a correction is bound to happen. Apple have already started: they attempted to reintroduce depth and shadows in their recent iterations of icons, arguably with mixed results. More and more people will try, eventually resulting in a new wave against flatness.

Facebook clearly spells this out on the sign up pages for both Facebook and Instagram. Further when you upload or post content it is clear in the top header text that Facebook owns and will be paid for the content.

As a solo developer, one part of the reason to contract marketing is not exactly knowing what i do not know. While I try to keep focus narrow (i.e. optimize "this PPC campaign") I also explain that I know very little about it and hope to leverage experience of the firm doing just that, and if there is anything else that needs to be done - please let me know, don't be a robot executing program exactly as given. So far I did not have much success doing it this way. Each time I have to learn about specific area and only after some understanding, trial and error, I can hire someone who will just follow the steps.
