Isn't that kind of the whole problem? Practitioners ignoring research results because all they want to look at is what other practitioners do? Or are you really suggesting that researchers also become practitioners who develop working systems based on the ideas they discover?
Perhaps I'm misreading, but your statement seems to encapsulate the entire problem the article is highlighting.
- pyb 3y agoResearchers should become practictioners to some extent, if they want their ideas to spread. Example : Donald Knuth and TeX. Racket programming language. etc... Of course in this publish-or-perish era, this is probably no longer possible.
