Yes, journals are harmful to freedom of knowladge which might seem ignorant especially to people coming from academia and mainstream who doesn't know better and can't imagine anything else besided wallen gardens they grew up with.

Arxiv is dominated by CS [1] and nothing really changed over the years [2]. Saying about pushing the boundaries of scientific methods it was another rock into journals and the status quo on how it's done like p-hacking and other data manipulations. Being in open with community notes would would have a difference.

Empirical research can exist without journals, science can be for masses and journals are antithetical for sharing making the knowledge exclusive.

why keeping journals as an argument on the tech site that was always less formal with mandatory institutions but more open source. Journals discredited themselves multiple times. tech is expanding boundaries of scientific methods and AI will push it more.

Contentious topic but I have hard time comprehending line height scroll instead of smooth Web like experience and everything rendered in the same font size. I guess it’s a habit for people who started early and never got to use web applications enough to develop distaste to TUI scrolling patterns.

I feel your take will be taken down soon as it’s not the place for such discussion.

Just food for thought: what makes you to feel so entitled to judge people place of living? You know how we are not choosing where to be born and our mobility is restricted a lot of times? Is your separation for man and women comes from religion or other bias to categorize them?

Gemini 3 are great models but lacking a few things: - app expirience is atrocious, poor UX all over the place. A few examples: silly jumps when reading the text when the model starting to respond, slide-over view in iPad breaking request while Claude and ChatGPT working fine. - Google offer 2 choices: your data used for whatever they want or if you want privacy, the app expirience going even worse.
