What's the point of journals these days, especially in computing with reproducible results (i.e. authors publish a paper on arxiv, code & dataset on github)?

- nunya213 8y agoReproducible results? lol. A fraction of researchers actually put out code and data freely, definitely not a majority.
- fourthark 8y agoAnd even when it's out, does the code actually run? Designing your code and data so it's truly reproducible is a ton of work, and most researchers are focused on the paper.
