random_walker You've probably seen recommendation inflation. What's happened in response is even worse. Since no one trusts anything in letters anymore in the U.S., a good letter has to be long.

@mwotton Of course, but at some point you have to ask yourself if that convenience is worth the pain of Make.

random_walker Well, one thing is for sure in academia—when someone tries to go deep on a topic, someone else will go even deeper.

I've just been informed of this paper with 224 citations just on the topic of iron and spinach, half of which are from the 19th century 🤯
