It's Not About Speed, It is About Patience and Adherence to Truth, Principles, Scientific Integrity
A personal hero to many Computer Scientists: (yes, computer scientists rather than low-grade pretenders)
Yesterday evening and on Friday our core team discussed publication strategy and topics to cover in 2026. For those who have not been keeping track, at the moment we have 3 EPO series running in tandem (some are on pause, not permanent hiatus), the daily series regarding SLAPPs will last until autumn/winter, and at the same time we'll run side series regarding SLAPPs. After that we have many more series that can teach people how media law works in the UK (and to some extent elsewhere; many countries modeled their laws after the British model because of the British Empire).
We have a number of GNU-related series as well, but we regard them as time-insensitive and therefore prioritise the EPO, where there are massive and unprecedented (in terms of scale) strikes going on.
So in effect we currently have half a dozen multi-part series going on right now and several dozens more "in the tank" (some are partly or roughly drafted already). Our aim is to be thorough, not fast, and always be precise because accuracy and concision matter so much more than speed (being fast matters in social control media and we'll never ever do the social control media "game" which begets "algospeak").
Donald Knuth once wrote: "Email is a wonderful thing for people whose role in life is to be on top of things. But not for me; my role is to be on the bottom of things. What I do takes long hours of studying and uninterruptible concentration."
I check my Email once a day and sometimes not at all for several days. It can be like "social control media lite" and interfere with flow, especially if there are notifications.
I first read that Knuth quote more than 20 years ago when I was a Ph.D. student and it really stayed with me. What society needs is long, in-depth series (the SLAPP series took years of preparation and hard work), not impulsive clickbaiting.
Thankfully we have earned more recognition for our larger bodies of work (e.g. EPO coverage) in recent years; accordingly, based on this track record, we attract more whistleblowers and even commendable words from judges.
Techrights will be around for many years to come (like Knuth has been) and attacks on us only ever made us stronger - a lesson that our adversaries have learned the hard way. █
