What is this insinuation based on? Do you have data on how many papers by "people with the right connections" are rejected, for example?
- idoeestuff 6y agoi think this is just anecdotal; this person is clearly in the community. i'm not sure this data is useful, because we'd disagree on "people with the right connections".
- pbzcnepu 6y agoit's anecdotal. another anecdote, when first trying to raise awareness of the issue, when mentioning it to members of the community I never got the response "wow, how could this happen in computer architecture?" rather the response tended to be "wow, I can't believe it finally got bad enough that a student died"
- ialsodoeestuff 6y agoBecause these anecdotes are unsubstantiated, they can come across as sour grapes, which I think damages your good cause of exposing the serious misconduct for which there's actual evidence.
