    It's funny this is nature, because they added open access to their journal.

    It costs $10,000 to get your paper published like that though.

      What are you complaining about? Researchers have access to publishing openly.

        It what? Costs money on top of the cost of researching to publish scientific papers? Yes that's correct, no its not a problem because this is the system we've had for years now, and there's no bias against white dudes publishing, so it must be fine.

          No I get publishing is a racket, but paying extra to be free just feels so fucking perverse.

          And yeah. Science as a method still works, but science as an institution is dead.
