The Changing Frontier of Science

I'm glad I read the whole article, as it's great to see a lot of familiar faces highlighted in the logo slide towards the end - I'm immensely proud of what we've achieved at Overleaf[1] (although with still a long way to go), and it's great to see Sparrho[2] and Impact Story[3] also included in this piece.

There's a huge amount of innovation happening in science tech right now, and it's amazing how far it's come in just a few years.

For anyone in London interested in new developments in science and publishing tech, were hosting an event on May 10th you're welcome to attend - would love to see new faces there: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/futurepub-7-new-developments-in...

How many researchers are going to give people the honest truth and say "well the initial effect of 2.5 sigma just vanished after $500k of upgrades, sorry folks". The corresponding backlash will be swift and brutal, and science as a whole will suffer.

Is the world better off because of this? I don't think so. I'm not particularly interested in being part of the crowd-funded, gig-economy version of science.
