Am I the only one assuming that this many excellent scientists moving from academia is a loss for science in general? Will they really publish research in the same way they did before?
(Make no mistake, I can fully understand them, professors paid 80k per year, lacking resources, fighting bureaucrats, it is a great thing that they are recognised and at last paid what they deserve for devoting their lives to science.)
- buttproblem 12y agoWhile I am curious too about your question, Vapnik was previously working in industry at NEC Labs in New Jersey.
- patkai 12y agoGood point. But I do wonder about Facebook's journal publishing policy.
- xamdam 12y ago- Highly doubt it's purely a money decision - Vapnik is joining a number of people he previously worked with - Getting huge computational resources and seeing your ideas applied to real data is rewarding
