It’s almost like Nature doesn’t expect its readers to know who this Max Planck guy is. :-)

It’s almost like Nature doesn’t expect its readers to know who this Max Planck guy is. :-)
- zugi 4mo agoExactly, it seems that HN can assume a certain level of scientific knowledge among its readers that Nature can't.
- gpvos 4mo agoIf Ars can, then HN definitely can.
- phalangion 4mo agoNah. It’s all part of the clickbait. You want to know which physicist, so you click
- mhurron 4mo agoWell it would seem that the AAAS shouldn't assume that about HN readers. The previous posted article was posted on science.org, managed by American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) not Nature, which is a British publication. The organization that did the removal was Springer Nature, parent of the publisher of Nature. It was reported in several places, the one linked here was on a site affiliated by a completely different organization. Also, science.org is open to everyone, their articles are written and titled for any level of knowledge and any background. Ars and HN are very specific in their target audience and write to that. Even then the comments will be filled with complaints if things aren't written in a manner approachable to anyone.
