"Mathematicians have tried many different possibilities and have yet to find a single one that works. But they also haven't been able to prove that such a box doesn't exist, so the hunt is on for a perfect cuboid." apparently, something wrong here.
It reminds me the other day I read a 2012 NLP PhD paper where there is no contact information(email, etc) all over. Frustrating. And recent news about a new genetic editing technology claimed by a seemingly 'nobody' unrecognized in bioinformatics community before is causing great controversy that the research could not be replicated, lacking critical detail about process and data. When asked why he does not want to disclose who indeed replicated, the author said it would let them down. I just don't understand the reasoning. All about social pshycology in science?
Don't you remember that crowd-sourced stock predication website that publish the anonymized data and let crowd build model without knowing which specific stock/portfolio is used?
The trend is microservice with polyglot environment where developers can use their favorite language for the right task. I can see Java, Python, Go, Nodejs all having their place in back end. Especially with PaaS buildpack, docker container, devops, it is less and less significant to choose one particular language as primary back end language.
