2020-05-23Typo and style corrections in the text, Roberto's bio addedRoberto Baena-Gallé-37/+41
Before this commit: several typos were present along the text. With this commit several typos have been corrected (types listed below) and my bio has been added. a) double words b) general typos c) comas after adverbs at the beginning of a sentence d) contractions are removed, e.g., don't vs do not e) three sentences in parenthesis have been removed since I think they were out of context or unnecessary f) etc
2020-05-23Corrected name of produced demonstration tableMohammad Akhlaghi-2/+2
In order to correspond to the updated datalineage plot, the name of the plotted columns was changed to 'columns.txt', but I had forgot to update it in the LaTeX source and since the old file still remained I hadn't noticed. This was found by Boud and corrected.
2020-05-22Software citation: removed abstract entry from BibTeX infoMohammad Akhlaghi-7/+0
Until now, two of the software BibTeX sources (Matplolib and Sympy) had an "abstract" entry that was long, not similar to the rest, and not relevant in this context, so they are removed with this commit.
2020-05-22Corrected copyright notices to fit GPL suggested formatMohammad Akhlaghi-240/+357
In time, some of the copyright license description had been mistakenly shortened to two paragraphs instead of the original three that is recommended in the GPL. With this commit, they are corrected to be exactly in the same three paragraph format suggested by GPL. The following files also didn't have a copyright notice, so one was added for them: reproduce/software/make/README.md reproduce/software/bibtex/healpix.tex reproduce/analysis/config/delete-me-num.conf reproduce/analysis/config/verify-outputs.conf
2020-05-22Re-write of the paper to fit in ~6000 words and IEEE formatMohammad Akhlaghi-159/+428
Following the fact that the DSJ editor decided that this paper doesn't fit into their scope, we decided to submit it to IEEE's Computing in Science and Engineering (CiSE). So with this commit the text was re-written to fit into their style and word-count limitations.
2020-05-08Added the option -e in the configure Gnuastro warning messageRaul Infante-Sainz-1/+1
Until this commit, when the version of Gnuastro doesn't match with the version that the project was designed to use, the warning message saying how to run the configure step was not showing the option `-e'. This situation is normal when updating the version of Gnuastro to the most recent one (with the project already configured). However, the use of this option is more convenient than giving the top-build directory, etc, every time. With this commit, the warning message has been changed in order show also the option `-e' in the re-configure of the project.
2020-05-08Installing Scamp with the option --enable-plplot=noRaul Infante-Sainz-1/+3
Until this commit, Scamp was installed with the option `--enable-plplot=yes' (the default). However, Maneage does not have PLplot included. As it is possible to install Scamp without PLplot (in that case it won't generate plots), with this commit this option has been set to `no'. As a consequence, Scamp will be installed even if the host system does not have PLplot without crashing (but it won't make any plot).
2020-05-08GNU Gettext built as a dependency of BashRaul Infante-Sainz-98/+69
Until now Maneage used the host's GNU Gettext if it was present. Gettext is a relatively low-level software that enables programs to print messages in different languages based on the host environment. Even though it has not direct effect on the running of the software for Maneage and the lanugage environment in Maneage is pre-determined, it is necessary to have it because if the basic programs see it in the host they will link with it and will have problems if/when the host's Gettext is updated. With this commit (which is actually a squashed rebase of 9 commits by Raul and Mohammad), Gettext and its two extra dependencies (libxml2 and libunistring) are now installed within Maneage as a basic software and built before GNU Bash. As a result, all programs built afterwards will successfully link with our own internal version of Gettext and libraries. To get this working, some of the basic software dependencies had to updated and re-ordered and it has been tested in both GNU/Linux and macoS. Some other minor issues that are fixed with this commit - Until this commit, when TeX was not installed, the warning message saying how to run the configure step in order to re-configure the project was not showing the option `-e'. However, the use of this option is more convenient than entering the top-build directory and etc every time. So with this commit, the warning message has been changed in order use the option `-e' in the re-configure of the project. - Until now, on macOS systems, Bash was not linking with our internally built `libncurses'. With this commit, this has been fixed by setting `--withcurses=yes' for Bash's configure script.
2020-05-06Corrected latex citation of sip_tpv program (no more \ before _)Mohammad Akhlaghi-1/+1
Until now there we had manually inserted a `\' before the `_' of sip_tpv program. However, we also recently added a step in the configure script to add a `\' before every `_' when writing the final LaTeX macro. This was because some C compilers (when the host's is used) have an `_' in their version that we had no control over. With this commit, the `\' is removed from `sip_tpv' in its build-rule and we let the backslash be inserted automatically.
2020-05-06Software are rebuilt automatically with change of versionMohammad Akhlaghi-227/+232
Until now, when you changed the version of a software in an already-built system, its tarball would be downloaded, but it wouldn't actually build. The only way would be to force the build by deleting the main target of that file (under `.local/version-info/TYPE/PROGRAM'). This was because the tarballs were an order-only prerequisite which was implemented some time ago based on some theoretical argument that if the tarball dates changes, the software should not be rebuilt (because we check the checksum). However, the problems this causes are more than those it solves: Users may forget to delete the main target of the program and mistakenly think that they are using the new version. The fact that all the numbers going into the paper also contain this number further hides this. With this commit, tarballs are no longer order-only and any time a version of a software is updated, it will be automatically built and not cause confusion and manual intervention by the users. As a result of this change, I also had to correct the way we find the tarball from the list of prerequisites.
2020-05-02First implementation of style in IEEEtran styleMohammad Akhlaghi-552/+830
The paper is no longer using LuaLaTeX, but raw LaTeX (that saves a DVI), it is so much faster! Initially I had used LuaLaTeX to use special fonts to resemble the CODATA Data Science Journal, but all that overhead is no longer necessary. Therefore I also removed the MANY extra LaTeX packages we were importing. The paper builds and is able to construct one of its images (the git-branching figure) with only 7 packages beyond the minimal TeX/LaTeX installation. Also in terms of processing it is so much faster. The text is just temporary now, and mainly just a place holder. With the next commit, I'll fill it with proper text.
2020-05-01Added a .gitattributes file to avoid merging some filesMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+6
As explained in the new `README-hacking.md', this files greatly helps in avoiding un-necessary conflicts.
2020-05-01Imported recent changes in Maneage, minor conflicts fixedMohammad Akhlaghi-651/+733
A few small conflicts showed up here and there. They are fixed with this merge.
2020-05-01Fixed OpenSSL deprecation bug on some OSs, causing problems in libgit2Boud Roukema-1/+16
Until this commit, the configure step would fail with an error when compiling libgit2 on a test system. The origin of this bug, on the OS that was tested, appears to be that in OpenSSL Version 1.1.1a, openssl/ec.h fails to include openssl/openconf.h. The bug is described in more detail at https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/index.php?58263 With this commit, this is fixed by manually inserting a necessary components. In particular, `sed` is used to insert a preprocessor instruction into `openssl/openconf.h`, defining `DEPRECATED_1_2_0(f)`, for an arbitrary section of code `f`, to include that code rather than exclude it or warn about it. This commit is valid provided that openssl remains at a version earlier than 1.2.0. Starting at version 1.2.0, deprecation warnings should be run normally. We have thus moved the version of OpenSSL in `versions.conf' to the section for programs that need to be manually checked for version updates with a note to remind the user when reaching that version. Other packages that use OpenSSL may benefit from this commit, not just libgit2.
2020-05-01Abstract: three minor language editsBoud Roukema-4/+4
The difference between `that` and `which` is not strictly required, but it helps clarify the difference in meaning, which is important in science and software :). This is best shown by an example: * Maneage provides reproducibility, which is a good thing. The sentence would make sense if we drop `, which is a good thing.` The last part of the sentence is a comment rather than a necessary part of the sentence. * Maneage provides a quality of reproducibility that is missing from other implementations. The sentence would not quite make sense if we drop `that is ...`, since we would not know what sort of quality is provided. The fact that the quality is missing is key to the intended meaning of the sentence.
2020-05-01Merged David's suggestions, further edited to be more clearMohammad Akhlaghi-7/+5
It is also slightly shorter with this commit, without loosing anything substantial.
2020-05-01Minor edits in abstractDavid Valls-Gabaud-7/+7
No need to invent a new word (archive-able) when an existing one (archivable) does the job. One issue that we have not included and which perhaps we could discuss in the paper (space permitting), is that this tool could bypass the use of blockchains in this context.
2020-05-01Minor edits in abstract, link between analysis and narrative addedMohammad Akhlaghi-3/+3
As discussed by Boud in the previous commit, this is an important feature that was lost in the new abstract. So I added it as a criteria.
2020-05-01Several minor edits to the title + abstractBoud Roukema-12/+13
Most are minor English tidying, e.g. * spelling: achieving * archivable - https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/archivable * `i.e.` does not look good in an abstract; * `when` didn't sound quite right; Comment: we no longer state one of the most interesting aspects of Maneage - producing the draft paper that is submittable for peer review in a way that makes it natural for the authors to achieve automatic consistency between the calculations/analysis and the values in the paper. But this is hard to describe in a compact way without disrupting the overall argument of the abstract, so it's a bit of a pity, but people will learn about it anyway from the body of the article (or from trying out the package!) `Peer-review verification` does not directly state producing a pdf. Related to this absence of talking about reproducing the *paper*, not just the calculations, I suggest dropping `, with snapshot \projectversion` from the abstract initially sent to the journal (they can't stop us updating it afterwards), because without the context of explaining that the paper itself is produced from the package, it's not clear what the snapshot means - a snapshot of the abstract? In the `real` paper, it makes sense, because the reader will have access to the rest of the paper.
2020-05-01Edited abstract for more clarity, still in the 250 word limitMohammad Akhlaghi-28/+15
Boud's suggestions in the previous commit were great and really helped in improving the tone of the abstract (and thus the whole paper shortly!), better putting it in the big picture. I had forgot to give the exact word limit (which was 250), so Boud had set it to a very conservative value of 190, I added around 22 words to better highlight the points we want to make, while still being below the limit.
2020-05-01Abstract re-organized to be more research-orientedBoud Roukema-7/+28
To make this a research article, we either have to present it as a theoretical advance, or as an empirical advance. An empirical research result would be something like doing a survey of users and getting statistics of their success/failure in using the system, and of whether their experience is consistent with the claimed properties and principles of Maneage (e.g. success/failure in creating paper.pdf as expected? was the user's system POSIX? did the user do the install with non-root privileges? was this a with-network or without-network ./project configure ?) This is doable, but would require a bit of extra work that we are not necessarily motivated to do or have the time to do right now. I think it's possible to present Maneage as a theoretical advance, but it has to be worded properly. Maneage is a tool, but it's a tool that satisfies what we can reasonably present as a unique theoretical proposal. Here's my proposed rewrite. I've aimed at minimum word length. I've also included (commented out) keywords for a structured research abstract - these are just for us, as a guideline to improve the abstract. I think "criteria" is safer than "standards". Whether a principle is good or bad tends to lead to debate. Whether a criterion is satisfied or not is a more objective question, independent of whether you agree with the criterion or not. In the rewrite below, we propose a theoretical standard and show that the new standard can be satisfied. Maneage is *used as a tool* to prove that the standard is not too difficult to achieve. Maneage is no longer the subject of the paper. (That won't change the main body of the paper too much, apart from compression, but the way it's presented will have to change, under this proposal.) The title would need to match this. E.g. TITLE.1: Evidence that a higher standard of reproducibility criteria is attainable TITLE.2: Evidence that a rigorous standard of reproducibility criteria is attainable TITLE.3: Towards a more rigorous standard of reproducibility criteria I would probably go for TITLE.3.
2020-05-01Abstract re-written to better highlight the uniqueness of ManeageMohammad Akhlaghi-9/+9
This abstract is a first step in order to put more focus on the research aspects of Maneage.
2020-05-01Removed Definition and Summary sections and low-level figuresMohammad Akhlaghi-129/+19
Given the very strict limits of journals, we needed to remove these sections and images. The removed images are: the `figure-file-architecture', `figure-src-topmake' and `figure-src-inputconf'. In total, with `wc' we now have 9019 words. This will be futher reduced when we remove all the technical parts of the Maneage section, in short, we will only describe the generalities, not any specific details.
2020-05-01Added interesting references by DavidMohammad Akhlaghi-0/+31
David suggested some interesting references in particular about the problems with Juypyter notebooks that are now added to the long version of the paper. We'll later decide if/how they can be used.
2020-04-29Reactivated --host-cc config option to use host C compilerMohammad Akhlaghi-5/+23
Until now, if GCC couldn't be built for any reason, Maneage would crash and the user had no way forward. Since GCC is complicated, it may happen and is frustrating to wait until the bug is fixed. Also, while debugging Maneage, when we know GCC has no problem, because it takes so long, it discourages testing. With this commit, we have re-activated the `--host-cc' option. It was already defined in the options of `./project', but its affect was nullified by hard-coding it to zero in the configure script on GNU/Linux systems. So with this commit that has been removed and the user can use their own C compiler on a GNU/Linux operating system also. Furthermore, to inform the user about this option and its usefulness, when GCC fails to build, a clear warning message is printed, instructing the user to post the problem as a bug and telling them how to continue building the project with the `--host-cc' option.
2020-04-28Better explanation at the end of the configurationMohammad Akhlaghi-4/+8
Until now, at the end of the configuration step, we would tell the user this: "To change the configuration later, please re-run './project configure', DO NOT manually edit the relevant files". However, as Boud suggested in Bug #58243, this is against our principle to encourage users to modify Maneage. With this commit, that explanation has been expanded by a few sentences to tell the users what to change and warn them in case they decide to change the build-directory.
2020-04-28Astropy will no longer be installed by defaultMohammad Akhlaghi-24/+31
Until now Gnuastro and Astropy where installed by default in any clean build of Maneage. Gnuastro is used to do the demonstration analysis that is reported in the paper and Astropy was just there to help in testing the building of the MANY tools it depends on! It (and its dependencies) also had several papers that helped show software citation. However, as Boud suggested in task #15619, the burden of installing them for a new user may be too much and any future changes will cause merge conflicts. It may also give the impression that Maneage is only/mainly written for astronomers. So with this commit, I am removing Astropy as a default target. But we can only remove Gnuastro after we include an alternative analysis in the demonstration `delete-me' files. Following Boud's suggestion in that task, `TARGETS.conf' was also added to the files to be ignored in any future merge (in the checklist of `README-hacking.mk'). The solution was already described there, but mainly focused on the deleted `delete-me' files. So with this commit, I brought out this item as a more prominent item in the list. Maybe we can later add the analysis done in the Maneage paper (not yet published). In terms of testing the software builds, we already have task #15272 (Single target to build all high-level software, for testing) that aims to have a single configure option to install ALL high-level software and we can ask people to try if they like and report errors.
2020-04-28Configration bug fixed: other problematic software names from tarballBoud Roukema-5/+4
Similar to the previous commit (e43e3291483699), following a change made yesterday in the identification of software names from their tarballs, a few other problematic names are corrected with this commit: `apr-util', HDF5, TeX Live's installation tarball and `rpcsvc-proto'. Even though we have visually checked the list of software, other unidentified similar cases may remain and will be fixed when found in practice.
2020-04-28Configration bug fixed: identify pkg-config from its tarball nameBoud Roukema-1/+1
Until Commit 3409a54 (from yesterday), pkg-config was found correctly in `reproduce/software/make/basic.mk` by searching for `pkg`. However, commit a21ea20 made an improvement in the regular expression for relating package names and download filenames, and the string `pkg-config` with the new regex no longer simplifies to `pkg`. The result of this was that the basic.mk could not find `pkg-config` in the list of packages, since it was still listed as `pkg`. This blocked downloading for a system without pkg-config preloaded. With this commit (of just a few bytes), the bug is fixed.
2020-04-27Aborting with informative error when GNU gettext not foundMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+39
Until now, we wouldn't explicity check for GNU gettext. If it was present on the system, we would just add a link to it in Maneage's installation directory. However, in bug #58248, Boud noticed that Git (a basic software) actually needs it to complete its installation. Unfortunately we haven't had the tiem to include a build of Gettext in Maneage. Because it is mostly available on many systems, it hasn't been reported too commonly, it also has many dependencies which make it a little time consuming to install. So with this commit, we actually check for GNU gettext right after checking the compiler and if its not available an informative error message is written to inform the user of the problem, along with suggestions on fixing it (how to install GNU gettext from their package manager).
2020-04-27Thanked Fabrizio, Tamara and Nadia for their supportMohammad Akhlaghi-1/+4
They supported my visit and talk on Maneage at the Barcelona Super Computing center. They have also offerred to read the paper and are providing comments. Also, I noticed that in the author list, we had forgot to put an `,' after Boud's name. That is also corrected here.
2020-04-27Configuration: improved version separation from tarball nameBoud Roukema-27/+36
Until now, the sed script for determining URL download rules in the three software building Makefiles (`basic.mk', `high-level.mk' and `python.mk') considered package names such as `fftw-3...` and `fftw2-2.1...` to be identical. As the example above shows, this would make it hard to include some software that may hav conflicting non-number names. With this commit, the SED script that is used to separate the version from the tarball name only matches numbers that are after a dash (`-'). Therefore considers `fftw-3...` and `fftw-2...` to be identical, but `fftw-3-...` and `fftw2-2.1...` to be different. As a result of this change, the `elif' check for some of the other programs like `m4', or `help2man' was also corrected in all three Makefiles. While doing this check on all the software, we noticed that `zlib-version' is being repeated two times in `version.conf' so it was removed. It caused no complications, because both were the same number, but could lead to bugs later.
2020-04-26README-hacking.md: described why automatic preparation only occurs onceZahra Sharbaf-1/+20
Recently (since Commit 7d0c5ef77), the preparation is not run automatically every time. It is only run automatically the first time and needs to be manually called with the `--prepare-redo' option. But this wasn't explained in `README-hacking.md' (currently the main documentation of Maneage). With this commit, a description about invoking the preparation process after the first attempt of the running project has been added to `README-hacking.md'.
2020-04-26Corrected Gnuastro configuration directory in initialize.mkZahra Sharbaf-1/+1
Recently (in Commit 8eb0892e) the Gnuastro configuration files moved under "reproduce/analysis/config/gnuastro" directory (before that they were in `reproduce/software/config/gnuastro)'. But this hadn't been reflected in it the variable that defines this directory in `initialize.mk'. With this commit, the address of the Gnuastro configuration files directory is corrected, allowing Gnuastro programs to operate properly when it is used.
2020-04-26verify-outputs.conf: typo correction in comment to avoid confusionBoud Roukema-1/+1
Until now, the comment in the file said that setting the `verify-outputs` variable to `yes` disables the verification. Looking at `reproduce/analysis/make/verify.mk` shows that the opposite is true. With this commit, the word `disable` is replaced with `enable` so that the user is not confused by the conflict between the source code in the other file and this comment.
2020-04-26Configure.sh: build directory checked for ability to modify permissionsPedram Ashofteh Ardakani-11/+81
Until now we only checked for the existance and write-ability of the build directory. But we recently discovered that if the specified build-directory is in a non-POSIX compatible partition (for example NTFS), permissions can't be modified and this can cause crashs in some programs (in particular, while building Perl, see [1]). The thing that makes this problem hard to identify is that on such partitions, `chmod' will still return 0 (so it was hard to find). With this commit, a check has been added after the user specifies the build-directory. If the proposed build directory is not able to handle permissions as expected, the configure script will not continue and will let the user know and will ask them for another directory. Also, the two printed characters at the start of error messages were changed to `**' (instead of `--'). When everything is good, we'll use `--' to tell the user that their given directory will be used as the build directory. And since there are multiple checks now, the final message to specify a new build directory is now moved to the end and not repeated in every check. [1] https://savannah.nongnu.org/support/?110220
2020-04-25Demonstration cloning URL set to https://git.maneage.org/project.gitMohammad Akhlaghi-2/+2
Until now, we were using GitLab as the main Git repository of Maneage. But today I finally setup our own Git repository under `git.maneage.org' and enabled a CGit web interface for a simple and fast viewing of the commits and changes. Since this URL is under our own control, we can always ensure that it will point to somewhere meaningful, on any server so in the long-run its much better than publishing the paper an explicit reliance of `gitlab.com'.
2020-04-25IMPORTANT: Primary Maneage repositories are now under maneage.orgMohammad Akhlaghi-29/+24
Until now, the primary Maneage URLs were under GitLab, but since we now have a dedicated URL and Git repository, its better to transfer to this as soon as possible. Therefore with this commit, throughout Maneage, any place that Maneage was referenced through GitLab has been corrected. Please correct your project's remote to point to the new repository at `git.maneage.org/project.git', and please make sure it follows the `maneage' branch. There is no more `master' branch on Maneage.
2020-04-24TypoBoud Roukema-1/+1
2020-04-23Minor edits on Boud's great correctionsMohammad Akhlaghi-13/+12
Reading over Boud's edits, I noticed a few other parts that I could summarize more and corrected one or two other parts to fit the original purpose of the sentence better.
2020-04-23ConclusionBoud Roukema-9/+9
Reduction by about 5 words. Although it's true that the low-level tools - make, bash, gcc - are still being actively developed, only expert users will tend to notice the differences, and in this context, it's probably more useful to point out that these are actively *maintained*. (Comment: I felt that the first sentence in the Conclusion is missing one of the obvious criteria for handling big data - citizen control so that big data could hopefully become less Orwellian than it is right now, with GAFAM having the main big data databases that are used by AI researchers and will tend to affect people's lives more than traditional "scientific" databases. But there's no point adding this here, since the criteria that tend to satisfy the scientific requirements ("principles") and citizens' rights tend to overlap to a fair degree...)
2020-04-23Discussion/caveats section.Boud Roukema-27/+27
Reduction of about 50 words. There were a couple of expressions that look a bit like some sort of software/research analysis jargon, such as `Research Objects`, `Software Heritage`, `Machine actionable`. Unless these are defined, capitalising them makes the reader assume that there is some well-known formal meaning and that s/he has to search for that him/herself. As lower case expressions, the reader can guess some reasonable meanings of these. The word "embargo" was introduced for proposal 2) to handle the third caveat.
2020-04-23Further edits to summarize the parts corrected by BoudMohammad Akhlaghi-48/+47
[Compared to first submission to DSJ last week with 11436 words in raw PDF, we have decreased the paper by ~1000 words to 10493 :-)] As with the previous commits, the moment Boud changed the structure of sentences, I was able to find the redundancies and remove them! This is a fascinating feature of collaboration I had never felt before: it is so hard to find redundancies in my own raw text, but even a minor correction by someone else suddeny breaks my mental memories/barrier on the sentence, allowing me to be more critical to it! Anyway, besides such corrections, I fixed a few other things: 1) In the DSJ's recently published papers, ther is no `~' between "Figure" and its number. 2) I noticed that in `tex/src/figure-src-inputconf.tex' I was actually using manually input strings for the filename, checksum and size! This was contrary to the whole philosophy of Maneage(!), I must have rushed and forgot! So LaTeX variables are now defined and used.
2020-04-234.6 Project analysis - publicationBoud Roukema-14/+12
About 20 words less. The ArXiv URL is added - this adds no extra length in words, and some readers will not be familiar with ArXiv (although the COVID-19 pandemic has attracted attention to BiorXiv).
2020-04-234.5 Project analysis - multi-userBoud Roukema-4/+4
Increase by 5 words. We don't need to give a big warning here, but "Permissions management" is meant to be a brief way of saying that whether or not different users can really read/write/execute in subdirectories will firstly depend on whether the user who cloned Maneage has handled these permissions correctly and whether s/he is able to allow others to edit in his/her subdirectories. Comment: Users would have to check who else is logged in at the time, who else is running jobs, and so on. On a supercomputer this might make sense, to avoid unnecessary recompiles. Anyway, this edit summary is not the place to discuss this...
2020-04-234.4 Project analysis - git branchesBoud Roukema-12/+12
Reduction by 15 words. "Branch" is fine as a verb, and "off" is fine as a preposition; there's no need for a second preposition. "We branched off the main forest path onto a smaller path".
2020-04-234.3.6 Project analysis - configure filesBoud Roukema-13/+14
Length reduction by about 15 words. A semantically significant change is from `leading to more robust scientific results` to `evolves in the case of exploratory research papers, and better self-consistency in hypothesis testing papers`. I said this in a previous commit, but it can't hurt repeating: In the covidian epoch (though not only), it is especially important to distinguish bayesian type exploratory research (typical in astronomy or searching for a good COVID-19 treatment or vaccine) from hypothesis testing (clinical testing in double-blind random access trials with clinical trials methods published on a public registry prior to the trials taking place). In the latter case, you want your results to be analysed consistently with the plan published before the trials even begin, and ideally you want them to be published (or at least posted on the trial registry website) even if your results are insignificant, to avoid a publication bias in favour of significant results. Test homeopathy against placebos in 1000 independent experiments, analyse them all the same way, and 2-3 experiments will be significant at the 3 sigma level...
2020-04-234.3.5 Project analysis - downloadsBoud Roukema-6/+5
Reduction by about 7 words. I added "internet security" as an extra reason for having all the downloads in a single file. Modularity and minimal complexity in themselves generally contribute to internet security, but in this case, it's obvious that having all the communication with the outside world managed through a single file makes internet security management much simpler. I replaced the "fake URL" by the real one, because at least in the present format, the URL fits in nicely. So both `paper.tex` and `tex/src/figure-src-inputconf.tex` are modified in this commit.
