If you use an online presence that is traceable across the internet, some subset of them will bother you everywhere or decide to make your life miserable when you ignore them.

- krageon 7y agoI think we agree then that releasing code connected to a paper is something I wouldn't recommend anyone actually do, even if I do like it when it does happen :)
