Many if not most of the readers are grad students. Arguably they're the people who pay that indirectly in increased tuition fees.

Reputable quality bar isn't the right metric. Quality is a better metric. To the extent it can be estimated, impact is another. Neither of these require journals specifically. A different way to look at this is to question what "o

What prevents AI scrapers from continuing to scrape sites that contain a <Canary> tag but not follow the bad links?

A different way to not require journals to be the arbiters of quality is to let the truth itself be the arbiter of quality instead of designate gatekeepers. 1. Open peer-review to anyone interested instead of only select few. HN is an examp

Peer-review can also occur from non-gatekeepers, from non-experts. You realize you posted this on a massively open and public publication system, right? Non-experts sometimes bring perspectives that gatekeepers are blind to.

I built something like this but it didn't get users. Replying to an author for the valuable info they posted would pay the author and it also accepted public payments. An AI or search engine that identified the value of a contribution

Sorry, I tried. If you want to have good things you have to use them when you first see them.

Can you share more about why it's hard to submit the preprint for review unless its first published somewhere? Wouldn't you be able to submit the preprint directly to whichever conference or journal you want it published in? For a

> share any non-mainstream thought and your replies are full of haters This may be a failure of the platform protocol. I wish the protocol was: [phrase-redacted]. Grok ranking people's posts based on truth will be interesting.

Compare work you did earlier with work you did later. Is one better than the other? If so, does it mean there is such a thing as "quality"?

Thank you for sharing this opinion. AI != LLMs. A future version of better AI might become capable of saying "I don't know." The mess of figuring out what the facts are, in a way, already has deployed solutions. Journalists a

A microcosm indeed. I didn't write my comment to applaud them.

I'm a bit amazed you consistently get downvoted while you seem to speak the truth. So much gray in your comments.

What would a system that rewards people for quality rather than volume look like? How would an online world that is optimized for humans, not algorithms, look like? Should content creators get paid?

I also wish it could build the app and let me use it, so I can see if it works, before it asks me to pay. Being asked to pay for something that I can't see if it works made me close my account and not want to use it again. Having to wa

An MVP of a new product can be launched in 1-2 weeks by a single developer. If it has a mobile app, I've seen it get 10,000+ users in 2 weeks.

The most brutal part of distribution I've seen is finding people who care about trying things out. Maybe something like https://smallbets.com is better than Product Hunt in finding that group of people. PH doesn't allo
