IEEE is the noise you make when you see how much they want you to pay for a PDF

@chjara coincidentally, U+IEEE happens to be the Unicode code point for, and I quote the latest spec, "A METRIC FUCKTON OF MONEY", in the dingbats section

@chjara I've had a lot of luck finding copies of scientific and engineering papers on SciHub. Try it out if you haven't.

@chjara Worst is I feel like ISO/IEEE/… prices are kind of similar to how prices works for manga collections.
