AI summary of the linked articleProfessional science has slowed, so everyone should do research in the open and post it online, since progress depends on producing more varied and unconventional work. The argument is that science is a strong-link problem, so the goal is more good ideas rather than filtering out bad ones, and that dabblers and part-timers, such as Einstein while he was a patent clerk and Marie Curie's early work in a shed, have driven past discoveries. It also claims peer review consumes 15,000 years of collective effort each year without doing its job. The author offers to answer emails and link to good work, and has set up a Discord server for people doing science. | |
