Growing Focus on Publication

All the attempts to stop us came from men who attack women

Publication is valuable. Linking to articles is less valuable, albeit not invaluable either. I am aware of the real meaning of the term invaluable, sans allegory.

Yesterday I expressed concerns about the media (no, it's not about slop) and explained why I'd calibrate for greater volume of publications or longer, more detailed publications. There's just way too much shallow or outright misleading stuff out there on the Web, even if one can identify and cull LLM slop. Newsrooms are being gutted and it's difficult to know what's really going on. Hours ago I mentioned how IBM layoffs are barely being covered anywhere ("Where are the articles about IBM layoffs? Nowhere to be found!").

True! We're meant to think those layoffs are not even happening! That's like reading the ness somewhere like Iran or China! It's frightening to see the general trajectory and it's not only because of autocrats taking over. It's because of the plutocrats' class taking over, with more of those "elites" endorsing autocracy as a means of "stability".

It's 4AM here and I already have a large pile of topics to cover, having published 15 pages since midnight. Going forward, we'll increase our output and do our best to attract sources (sometimes leakers). We have 3 series going on and most are based on whistleblowers; it takes a long time to write the parts because I need to protect those whistleblowers (wording matters) and also keep legal aspects in mind. We discuss this internally, as I need guidance sometimes.

Over the past ~10 days we always served more than a million Web hits per day (at one point over 2 million, but this includes the sister site, where there are lots more original articles this year) and we plan to use this as a reinforcing factor. If people do show interest in what we publish, then doing more of the same would generally be appreciated. The more we do this, the more whistleblowers come our way.
