Researchers suggest there are so many scientific papers that their contents are being rapidly forgotten. "Recursion: see Recursion."

Yeah I think I also already knew it once. I guess I'm so old it's new again

Sadly, I can't remember the contents of this study, which means I must've remembered it!
And I certainly remember that study that said refactoring isn't effective

In other words, this study added one more to that.
A question arises: Has the increased number of scientific studies decreased the 'unscientific-ness' of the general populace? I guess not.

Some guy on the web wrote: while many modern languages force programmers to front-load the design aspect of a program
Which is bull. It takes a certain restraint to not use features available, and opinions which features are "good old" vs. "a burden" may diverge in a team. Yet no one forces you to use lambdas or polymorphy or generics / templates or whatever irks you.
Simplicity is probably good when projects see high employee turnover.
Plus, "Google backing" can be a fickle beast.
The rest can probably be said about every young language.

The proposed digital currency system would work in a similar way. [..] Unlike bitcoin, where the network is decentralized and there is no overseer, the proposed digital currency system would be controlled by central banks, the source said. Interesting times ahead.

It looks like Iron Man's arm, but it's actually a fully-functioning bionic prosthetic for a seven-year-old kid. Electronically wired and capable of moving, it can, for instance, open and close its hand if the user flexes their bicep. The limb was created by Limbitless Solutions, a non-profit made up of engineering students from the University of Central Florida, using donations and money they saved by sacrificing coffee.
Cool!

I really loved this, the way that little kid behaved (in happiness) and how Robert was integrated into all of this as expert bionics (Iron Man -- Tony Stark[^]; if someone doesn't know why Robert was there in this video) engineer good step by One note and others... Truly amazing.
In case somebody missed to see the video, you can see it at Robert's official Facebook page, URL to video is: https://www.facebook.com/video.php?v=406208302880974[^].

I don't know about the 'sacrificing coffee' part, but good on them (the Uni students) - to me, this is one of the best uses for this emerging technology - sure it'll get corrupted and misused (already has, plastic guns etc), but sometimes I think there's almost hope for mankind when I see this sort of thing

I really liked her in-depth, 5-star review of the Minecraft guide:
I'm not really a fan of minecraft but with the help of this book, I became interested. I learned a lot from this minecraft guide. because of this book, I was intrigue and more interested in playing minecraft knowing different tips and tricks that can help me to win the game. Good job to the author! Wll-written! Highly recommended!
Yeah, that's the sort of crap you're getting.
I've actually read about a quarter of this book, it's really good and it sucks that the author has to put up with crap like this!

I have even participated in paid reviewing, of products, not books, but have always tried to be as honest as possible, by scouring the nets to find positive aspects of them, and not claiming to have owned or used them. During hard times a few years ago, at the fantastic rate of $1/500 words.

Who reviews the reviewer?
|
|
|
|

I've published 6 books on amazon and at various times I will also check out reviews and such.
I've noticed there are numerous trolls and troll companies who create these fake reviews also.
It's funny because the book mentioned in that original post I had just noticed and was very curious how it had received so many reviews.
Statistics
The reason I question the reviews are because of statistics.
You see, i've sold a few hundred copies of my book, Object Oriented JavaScript - amazon link[^], but I've only had 2 reviews.
People just don't review that much. It's about 1% or so. So if a book has 10 reviews it means it has sold 1,000 copies. And it is unlikely the book in question has sold 25000 copies.
Anyways, I see that quite a few people have given it 1 star ratings nows so that is good.
It hurts us selfpub authors who write real books with real information, because then people think our books priced at $2.99 are fake too.
Thanks for the post.
