So making access to information free is helping scientific progress? Wow, who could have imagined that!
no no no you see, putting papers behind paywalls actually incentivizes innovation because… wait what?
Careful, lest the AI haters hear that.
In your eyes, what are these AI haters complaining about?
If scientists didn’t have to pay obscene prices to view articles, those articles are cited more often. Who would have thought?
I personally like scihub because it’s easier to get papers off of rather than going through my library’s portal for a lot of journals.
One of us.
Noted. Will upload my future papers on SciHub myself. /j. Or am I? Vsauce music plays Did you know vegetables are a social construct?
A sandwich is also a social construct. But not every social construct is also a sandwich.
Dunno what Sci-Hub is, but most researchers are happy to send you a copy of their paper on request - and this is completely legal. Their email address is usually on the abstract.
I have never ever gotten a response from a researcher :(

Isn’t it odd that researchers who should be pros at caring about and finding the most correct metrics for every topic are obsessed with a proxy for quality that is just about the most disjoint possible? It should be embarrassing.
Unfortunately, it’s commonly not researchers that create academic circles, it is publishers and other entities with vested interest in making us publish more garbage.
Scientific world is corrupt as hell.
