Same for ACM. I think it’s good as it’s easier to read. But sometimes I still write names (e.g. as Mueller et al. points out, the color blue is actually red [666]), to highlight something. But that’s maybe for 5 out of 100 sources.

On top of it. The students get in debts to study. So it’s a double exploitation of them.

Frontiers has many different journals. The quality of the journal highly depends on the editor of the journal. But there has been reports that Frontiers has been involved in predatory actions. They used rejected papers and re-submitted them to other journals (as they have a lot of journals and some paper topics can fit in several journals). This is seen as predatory behavior. Overall I would argue that Frontiers is borderline, it would not be my first choice. Keep in mind, as an Open access journal they get paid my the author’s. Each article costs around 2.000$, so they need to publish papers in order to survive as a business.

There is no culture of unions in IT. But there should!

The contribution to the community is weak. I recommend the authors to work on their study design and to basically redo everything in good.

There were passengers on the flight. I would feel highly uncomfortable after this incident to be on another plane of Delta.

The company is still worth over 100 billions. They do something right.

Otherwise I agree with you. It’s almost hilarious to see fail after fail (as long as you are not in the plane).

Well, it fits the company. They are well known for heavily underpaying their workers (dirty cheap subcontracts), resulting in an less then good service of delivery.

Seems like a smart function. I would not feel safe in a Boeing at the moment.
