Does anyone have a link to the actual research? I've looked around a bit for it, but all I can find are these general news stories. I want more technically detailed information.

They need to publish their source code for me to believe their app.


This reflects the sad state of modern journalism. It costs nothing to link to the original study, which is online somewhere, in some format.

Nothing, that is, besides lost advert views and potential clicks.

a) You have no way of knowing whether the data beyond what is linked to in the article is available online. b) Finding it is not free if it requires the reporter's time. c) Bloomberg is hardly an example of the "sad state of modern journalism."


On b) if the reporter doesn't have the link, how the F is he writing the story? Is he just copying from somebody else's reporting?
