I'm probably drawing parallels here that someone who has a better understanding of the academic world could validate or reject, but.. it feels a bit like there are more similarities emerging between published research and published software. Citations are somewhat similar to dependencies, and post-publication review (as mentioned by the tweet's author) could be seen as similar to code review. (note: when I say "more" similarities emerging, that's because I think there's already a positive trend towards publishing code and datasets alongside research papers, aiding reproducible results)
