Look up the incredible profit margins of publishers such as Elsevier or Springer. University researchers/teachers who publish books or articles through them often get paid nothing (zero), or very little. And they do not care, since the

At least for science books, authors get paid very little or nothing. And no researcher/teacher relies on that for their income.

I suppose most people using LaTeX come from a scientific background. If you write math papers (for example) there is no good alternative to LaTeX. It has many issues but mostly it just works, so people are content with it. If you want to wr

I thought the question is not why this is a problem, but rather why is it possible at all for a loose object to end up in the depths of the AC to cause problems. Is there some reason we cannot avoid this? From a laymans perspective I think

I think it is impressive he figured this out as a layman. This article is from one year ago, it would be interesting to see a response from some researchers. For example, have there been any studies to see if this method is valid?

I don't think this is accurate. For example square root of -1 was motivated by clear applications in mathematics, it was definitely not just idle leisurely math. Most of important pure math has not been leisurely or recreational in any

Many people have been inspired by this book and it is entertaining. But in terms of history it is notoriously inaccurate, and some parts are just made up to make it more exciting.

I can get access to papers through my university, but even then there are many which lack subscription. And working from home, usually it is faster to just download the paper from sci-hub than go through a university login to get access. I
