They go into this in the twitter discussion: It's worth noting the datasets (except Brodeur for economics) include "less/greater than", e.g. p < .05 This is the reason for the bimodality, and also for economics

As far as I understand, most people don't have a problem with journals charging money. The problem is the extortionate amount they charge while using free labor. Usually when I want to read something academic it's about 30 eur per

For me the major improvement is that it puts the settings in the .config folder. I like this because I keep my settings in a git repo. The main advantage on the other hand is that my friend stopped bothering me about having to switch to neo

The ad companies simply don't want ABP to come along and tell them stuff they don't want to hear. They also don't want ABP knowing what they are talking about and planning to do. So they used a system to prevent ABP changing

I'm not sure what this is, but git blame doesn't have to be a hostile thing. Maybe it isn't named the best way. It lets you find the reason why and context in which certain code was added.
