Economics: How much are you willing to pay?

No need to rush to conclusions, I do read appendices when needed. My point is not that authors should cut the appendices or compromise on any other good open science practices. The point is that disproportionately large appendices make one wonder if some of that stuff actually belongs in the main text. If it is just a robustness check that gives a similar result, fine, make a footnote in the main text and put the analysis in the appendix. But what if it is actually relevant information that changes the perception of the main text?

 

It feels ridiculous to see a 5-page paper with a 150-page appendix. Makes you question what is the paper.

Pretty sure that's referee 2

For me, I wanted to play it for a long time, finally had the time during the holiday break. I played the Shadow of the Colossus last year, so this year it's ICO. Pretty happy with the PCSX2 emulator.

With ICO, I think it pays off to take it slow. I actually beat it three times now, I think. On my first play through I would often just pause and let the views sink in. It felt so magical for me.

Btw, there is a pretty cool speed run of the game by sanchopanda on GDQ

Agreed, nothing beats looking up a text code to jump to a section

Huh. I’d expect the evolution of consoles to speed up

I hope this is relevant for the community. In a bizarre coincidence I finished Ico this week (for the very first time, and... what an experience) and, of course, went to Gamefaqs to see what I missed on the first play through. To my huge surprise, there was a new guide, added just a few days back. The guide is on the language of Yorda, kind of similar to some of the previous work done, but a nice addition nonetheless. Really impressed that people are still writing guides on a 20+ year-old game.

 

In a nice house.

Here is the Wikipedia link.

 

I thought that the distinction existed only between Americans (astronauts) and Russians (cosmonauts), but no, Chinese also have their own term. I guess Indians should come up with their own, as well =)
