Over 2000 subcribers. One click unsubscribe. Read it first

Every Weekend you will receive a handpicked computer science research paper to learn about a new exciting topic.

Throughout my university career I got introduced to research papers and found that they are a lot easier to understand than I always feared. After reading a few I fell in love with this resource as they provide me insights into the spearhead of knowledge in my field. And to be honest, even though I enjoy reading blog posts, the quality of a peer-reviewed research paper is just on a complete different level.

As I mostly dive into topics regarding distributed systems and backend development the focus will definitely be in that area. I also wander into ML and such.

FAQs

When does the first newsletter arrive?

Whenever you subscribe the next Weekend. If you are subscribing on a Weekend and the newsletter was already send out you might have to wait a week. I still could not figure out how to automatically resend the last issue to new subscribers. (Maybe I will find a paper on that topic at some point 😅)

What are the papers you did send out so far?

You can find all past issues of the newsletter in the Archive.

For free, why are you doing this newsletter?

I created this newsletter as I enjoy reading scientific papers and want to give that joy to others. And to be 100% honest, the newsletter is not that much time effort for me.
Maybe at some point you need a consultant helping with optimizing your backend architecture and services. Would be awesome if you think of me at that point 🤓 This is what I considrer win-win.

Is this all legal?

Research papers sometimes have problems with paywalls and are limited access. I only select so-called open access papers that are free to read for anyone. None of the papers are hosted on my server.
