Possibly stupid question, in general: why don't these papers have any dates? how do I know when it was published and whether it is up-to-date / still relevant?

- eftychis 2y agoNot a stupid question at all. I agree with you. But that is part of the style of VLDB -- the front matter has the publication date. In any case this is part of the 2022-2023 volume: https://www.vldb.org/pvldb/volumes/16/ https://www.vldb.org/pvldb/volumes/16/ (in particular https://www.vldb.org/pvldb/vol16/FrontMatterVol16No11.pdf https://www.vldb.org/pvldb/vol16/FrontMatterVol16No11.pdf -- July 2023)
- simonw 2y agoOh so this is a year old? That makes sense, some of the examples (like the SQL generation from human language) felt a little unexciting by today's standards but would have been more interesting last July.
- zeehio 2y agoI agree they should shave that information. The nice part is that this information is standardized through the digital object identifier (doi). Ex: 10.14778/3611479.3611527 This doi takes you to: https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.14778/3611479.3611527 https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.14778/3611479.3611527 In general if you have a DOI and you want a URL you can go to https://dx.doi.org/ https://dx.doi.org/ to resolve it.
- sulandor 2y agodoi is indeed very nice one can even make a get_pdf_by_doi() by employing curl and sci-hub

- sulandor 2y agoyou got the idea get_pdf_by_doi(){ wget --recursive --span-hosts --no-directories --accept '*.pdf' --quiet --execute robots=off https://sci-hub.tw/${1} ;}
