As my profile says, "I do this both to help the discussion and as an act of civil disobedience."
Was there something more you wanted to know?

While I didn't downvote him, I agree with the downvoters. His substantive claims about how the research/peer review system works -- upon which is entire argument is based -- are factually incorrect.

Yes, regular. However, I hope this isn't gonna be a throw-away login: I've done this before with my regular account, and plan to do it every time I see a link posted where the paper is behind a paywall, both to help the discussion and as an act of civil disobedience. So I decided to create an account for this purpose.

As another comment mentioned, the full paper is subscriber-only.

Do something people.
I'm a regular HN reader who created this account for the purpose of posting papers under discussion publicly whenever it is behind a paywall. I do this both to help the discussion and as an act of civil disobedience.
