I’m glad someone else noticed the time frames — turns out the lead author here has published 28 distinct preprints in the past 60 days, almost all of which are marked as being officially published already/soon. Certainly some scientists are just absurdly efficient and all 28 involved teams, but that’s still a lot. Personally speaking, this gives me second thoughts about their dedication to truly accurately measuring something as notoriously tricky as corporate SWE performance. Any number of cut corners in a novel & empirical study like this would be hard to notice from the final product, especially for casual readers…TBH, the clickbait title doesn’t help either! I don’t have a specific critique on why 4 months is definitely too short to do it right tho. Just vibe-reviewing, I guess ;)
