Hey Michael Eisen, we get it. You don't like the peer review journal process and having to pay for access to scientific research. If you don't like it, make a better system.
Also -1 for having the worst form of linkbaity title, which is one that is utterly false and misleading, and lying for the first two paragraphs of that blog post.
- tedsanders 13y agoTo me, the title was obviously satire from the moment I read it. Also, he did make a better system. He co-founded the Public Library of Science (PLOS).
- judk 13y agoDoes PLOS protect against false claims somehow?
- rrmm 13y agoA better-ish system has already been made. The post mostly excoriates pay journals for implying that open access journals enable fraud and poor papers and pay journals prevent those sorts of papers. The arsenic-dna paper is used as a counterexample. The author instead says that ideas of peer review need to change. Although, everyone I know always thought peer review was a continuous process, more support for after-publication review would be nice.
