Comment Comment by xzttt I don't understand this researcher worship. How many papers from 1800-1900 are still valuable? How many from 1900-2000.Fact is that academia is grossly overstaffed and under publication pressure. Most papers aren't worth much, especially in the social sciences.Even in CS there are few seminal papers, and I mean the level of Tukey, Dana Scott, Pollard... parent xzttt 8 years ago
