I mean ”Show me the incentives and I’ll show you the results” has never been clearer.
I bet even now at least ten thousand 12-year old kids are studying their retention metrics underneath the blanket, hiding from their parents, trying to figure out how to squueze out an extra second from their next content.
Join us in Berlin next month for this special meet up 😎
Deutsche Bank x VictoriaMetrics: Best Practices on Scaling Observability
📍Deutsche Bank Berlin Technology Centre
🗓️ April 11th from 6.30pm
With a talk by Aliaksandr Valialkin on large-scale logging made easy & a talk by Dmitry Evdokimov on Fixed Income & Currencies - VictoriaMetrics cluster evolution.
Making the internet more hostile to human lives through #algorithms, #metrics and #generativeModels should be treated as an attack upon human rights and be responded to as such.
Looking forward to getting on one of my favorite soapboxes tonight at the University of Washington Data Science Seminar. The soapbox, you ask? Metrics in open source, of course!
It's now cultivating the false & invidious impression that journals w/o JIFs are somehow untrustworthy or fraudulent.
"We have evolved the JIF from an indicator of scholarly impact (the numerical value of the JIF)…to an indicator of both…impact & trustworthiness (having a JIF – regardless of the number)."
"Intrigued by a citation-boosting service that we unravelled during our investigation, we contacted the service while undercover as a fictional author, and managed to purchase 50 citations. These findings provide conclusive evidence that citations can be bought in bulk, and highlight the need to look beyond citation counts."
Update. " 'The capacity to purchase citations in bulk is a new and worrying development,' says Jennifer Byrne, a cancer researcher at the University of Sydney who has studied problematic publications in the biomedical literature…A researcher’s h-index and the number of citations they’ve garnered are often used for hiring and promotion decisions." https://www.science.org/content/article/vendor-offering-citations-purchase-latest-bad-actor-scholarly-publishing

I recently spoke to a senior technology leader at scale-up company in the appointment bookings space. He said they had their most successful quarter because they delivered more features than they ever have before.
I think there are so many things wrong with measuring features deliver per-quarter (FPQ), but I'd like to hear the other side of the story and be proved wrong.
