Another interesting paper hidden behind the academic firewall.
- Anon84 18y agoAt least in the physics world people just post everything to arXiv and their personal websites. This way you only need to pay attention to a couple of places to keep up to date.
- brent 18y agoEven in certain areas of computer science (specifically, machine learning) nearly all recent articles are open. I find in most cases that both statisticians and computer scientists tend to post links to pdfs or ps on their websites as well.
- scott_s 18y agoAs I said in another thread, most computer science papers are on authors' webpages. Then this one comes along - but it looks like the authors are stat people. I don't know what their culture is - and what kind of copyright agreements they sign. I can access the paper because my school subscribes. If anyone wants to read it, figure out how to email me and I'll send a copy. While searching, I did find a brief email from Ihaka talking about the jump to Lisp: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2008-May/049501.html https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2008-May/049501.html
