> academic clickbait. I like that term, it's quite astute. Yes, there's definitely topics that have no longevity like "Y2K survival guide" or things tied to specific hardware. But it's hard to tell. Occam and the Transputer seemed like the future once... and who knows... we studied it at university under "concurrency and parallelism" in the 80s, but then I never heard of it again until last week, it just came to mind because I saw an article about doing it with Raspberry-Pis. Likely a dozen books on "Living in the Metaverse" are being funded right now, and will be doorstops and firelighters in no time. Btw, I say academics don't have time to write because they're overwhelmed with pointless admin.
