White papers are shit written by marketing people who try to make their little ad sound like something academic. In truth these white papers are in equal parts misunderstandings, wrong and full of useless fluff. They are AI slop, often completely without any AI involvement.
If someone is serious about the content, they call it a documentation, reference or datasheet.
Yes, and how many helicopters fly regular passengers over your city?
There’s a reason these are speciality vehicles for speciality operations, and not a generic form of transport used all the time.
Also shouldn’t have a bombardier on board.
Now imagine hundreds of them populating the skies over a densely populated city, just to carry a few hundred rich people around.
It’s a really weird team mechanic.
We have two teams working on the same codebase. The teams are very far apart in terms of organization. We are in different departments.
That dude is in the other team. Each team does their own code review and is supposed to ask for cross-team review for stuff that affects the other team.
The guy built himself a reputation as an infallible master programmer in his team by bullying everyone else during PRs. You know, nitpicking tiny non-mistakes like variable names, blocking PRs for weeks by always finding some unnecessary detail, then waiting for a few days after that detail was adjusted to find another one and so on. So his team thinks he’s the greatest. Or maybe they are afraid to be his next victim or something. Whatever the reason, they just greenlight everything he does. And he never asks for a cross-team review.
His boss also completely covers for him, so so far our escalations just went nowhere.
We have that situation at work.
Stupid dev creates mega-PRs that do a ton of things that are not part of the ticket and thus aren’t tested by QA.
When it then inevitably fails during release testing or in production, better devs need to spend quite a bit of time to figure out what the hell the stupid dev messed up and the fix is then often just a few lines.
Some people enjoy studying, learning, practicing and grinding for days on end in their games. Other people have a job where they can do all that.
It certainly supports the admin sharting when he finds out where all the data went.
If you compare yourself to the sheep-killer in sheep’s fur, that doesn’t really reflect well on your opinions.
Wanting to murder the people around you is not a good opinion to have.
Those aren’t white papers. They are scientific papers.
White papers are written by companies as a marketing tool. The first two papers you linked above are written by universities and the last one by a research-focussed non-profit.
As per Wikipedia:

It’s a marketing presentation masquerading as a fake scientific paper.
