Now, that is completely understandable. This is also a reason I don’t publish most of my things. They work, they work well, but… Some of it is kind of nasty. However, other developers are going to understand. Just mention this in the read me file. Or better yet, use this as an opportunity to refactor code. An LLM could be very helpful For that process.

If you are not familiar with the process of using git or GitHub, i’m sure many of us, including myself, would be more than happy to help you.

You’re right that mathematical proofs are usually published on arXiv and then in journals. But since you mentioned code: sharing code on GitHub is actually very normal in research. Even if it’s just a solver or scripts for experiments, putting it on GitHub helps with reproducibility, gives others a chance to learn from or build on your work, and makes it easy to cite. There’s no obligation to polish it perfectly—lots of research repos are just “as is” snapshots to support a paper.

That’s not how it works. Put it on GitHub like the rest of us and stop making excuses.

So why haven’t you published the method?

lol what a douche.

Uhh, Daddy, obviously.

Please exit the job market and let people who want to code make money

Yes. Downloads is the way.

If you want to make yourself organize better, set up a cron to remove all downloads older than 7 days 😳 then you’ll be efficient—and probably have nightmares.
