QrXiv? Someone please explain to my smooth brain what’s going on?

Arxiv is a site for archiving and accessing scientific papers.

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/ArXiv

The caveat being that these papers are preprints, aka not peer reviewed. It’s got a lot of gems, but also a metric fuck ton of garbage. Use it as a starting place, not a finishing one, like Wikipedia… but it’s sometimes even less reliable. If it’s not your specially, find better sources.

fossilesque@mander.xyz on 23 May 14:27 collapse

Yes, actually. This is definately a source they use.

At least it doesn’t have a paywall though.
