Err... you're aware that Oracle owns Java? You're also talking about this language like it's defunct. I'm curious to hear what your involvement with software development is that would lead you to make that statement.

I guess you missed the bit in the OP specifically excluding his TV shows from the rankings? Mindhunter was fantastic TV though.

Holy crap! I'm no cinephile, but I've seen seven of these (including Seven!). You must spend a lot of time playing outside... admirable!

Yup, missed that. @DarkCrisis , adjust advice accordingly... 😬

Inviting someone to your house is a big deal, socially. At least in the sense that the invitee needs to feel comfortable with your company/likes spending time with you (and safe). Establish that comfort zone first, then you're gold. Human beings actually like spending time with other human...

Cool your jets. You misread the post you're responding to.

I hope none of your players are cruising ENWorld today 😬 :ROFLMAO:!!!

A double necro post in a thread about raising the dead... so meta, I fell out of my chair.

Maybe. But when you're looking up devils, it's because you want to reference all of the devils typically. I don't agree that it's six of one, half dozen of the other. YMMV.

In an ideal world, the cost of publishing is refunded (or paid for right off the bat), and is separate from the general research grant. But I read and understand your concerns with that model. What is the impact of what you're calling data and code being made available?

I see where you're coming from. I was coming at it from the angle of 'if you're going to contradict someone, you'd better have your ducks in a row'. Despite not having expertise in this area, maybe there were other facts informing @Staffan 's opinion? Thanks for describing your real world...

Like I said, I agree with your sentiment. @Belen had some instructive insights on how the sausage is made. But yes, that is the way it should be, ideally. My opinion is that all scientific papers/studies should be publicly accessible... as long as they are properly peer reviewed. Stuff that's...

Err... wut? @Belen makes a statement. @Staffan responds. I have almost no knowledge in this area, so asked these two to explain their positions, because it seems like an interesting topic. Belen responds with a super cogent, highly detailed response. Staffan responds with what amounts to 'I...
