In fact, around the time of the WTO accession, many young girls—some as young as ten—worked two full-time jobs to help support their families, often sleeping less than four hours a day; their plight was far worse than that of her uncle.
A whitepaper describing the background, purpose and tokenomics of the Sci-Hub token (SCI) is now available on the website: https://t.co/pGJxDefOQt
The primary goal is to accelerate transition of science towards Open Access, by rewarding knowledge sharing.

Dear crypto community,
If you want to support further development of Sci-Bot, and other Sci-* project, here the only real token you must trade:
2MaFszzCmpJqYPjVXsNytmiHfgckWbtBVq4WSoxjVGkf
https://t.co/TZUlZ8FEkZ
it was created one year ago and still growing in number of holders. Help token grow and make good MC!
This is the only token officially accepted by Sci-Bot at https://t.co/YWnbEvWjsr
Here is my most recent project: https://t.co/oSMutzh6yp
Unlike Sci-Hub and Sci-Net, where I have written all the code manually be hand, this one is pure AI generated - I decided to do this as a kind of experiment. LOVE the result! AI is 50x speedup in code writing, however creating the project is still a lot of work (human input is still needed for architectural decisions, debugging complex functionality and precise instructions)
Sci-Bot is connected to Sci-Hub database so it can read research articles and generate answers grounded in science. To pay for generated tokens, Sci-Bot supports two funding models: the first one is standard pay-as-your-go and the second one is legacy from Sci-Hub: it is donation based.
Anyone can donate: from these donations, the project will automatically calculate budget for upcoming month, and derive how much AI-generated answers it can serve to users for free.
Yes. That's how real recognition gets stolen, masqueraded as a compliment. Sci-Hub is SO BIG, SO BIG that you obviously couldn't do it yourself.
HATE. The very fact it is being masked as compliment makes it even more terrible.
I hear this argument being repeated again and again. This argument about Sci-Hub being BIG is absolute nonsense. Let's consider it:
Just how big Sci-Hub is?
Sci-Hub is, basically a piece of computer code that I wrote in PHP back in 2011. The code itself was not that large - some great computer games that were created by single authors in the time of MS-DOS are much longer.
The code itself was tiny, but it was universal: it worked on many research papers - millions of them, making them free. You can compare Sci-Hub code to a mathematical formula in physics. Just imagine: Einstein's formula is just three letters E = mc^2 - that was enough to describe the WHOLE UNIVERSE. That global universality does not make anyone think there was any team doing Einstein's work.
Sci-Hub does not require any exceptional or very expensive technical infrastructure to run on. It was first launched on a free web hosting, then moved to a rented server, as the project grew I bought a few servers myself. Every hardware part here is commercially available and within areach for a single person even without big funding.
The mere fact that impact of Sci-Hub was big also does not in any way imply it must be a work of many people. Consider how many great works of art or literature were created by single authors. Nobody says Tolstoy's epic novel "War and Peace" must be work of many because it is big and famous.
If you consider Sci-Hub as a work of writing - and it is writing in code - then you can easily place it in context of other works of writing and see that Sci-Hub is actually very small - both in terms of how much letters were used - and in terms of how much people it reached. Some books for kids are much more popular (yet nobody says there are many authors...)
it has been more than 10 years since launch of Sci-Hub and still keep receiving emails that remind me that I am not actually being considered the author of my works.
To clarify: there is no, and have never been any team behind my projects - I created these websites myself, and I am doing both technical stuff (programming / server administration) and user support (answering emails,writing social media posts).
And I really hate receiving such messages. Every time I read this, I wish that person on the other side of the screen to die in excruciating pain. For a moment.
Yes, I understand that such desire towards other person is absolutely not socially acceptable, and can be even considered psychopatic. And I understand that other person doesn't know, and is not to blame. And I know that by modern standard, every project has to be done in a team. Students are being forced to work in teams in universities, and etc.
But the reality is, that you do not need a team in order to create something that will change the world.
Teamwork mythology is one big lie.
And yes, it is actually me who created it - and there are no ghost programmers hiding behind my back.
Probably after this post I will start receive even more such messages from trolls, but I just want to say:
I AM A PERSON, AND I AM NOT A TEAM
‼️🇫🇷 Mistral AI allegedly breached: ~5GB of internal source code and ~450 private repositories exposed from the French AI company by TeamPCP
A threat group is selling approximately 5GB of internal repositories and source code allegedly belonging to Mistral AI and Mistral Solutions, covering training, fine-tuning, benchmarking, dashboard/platform, model delivery and inference, experiments, and future projects.
The actor is demanding a $25,000 BIN, stating they will shred the data permanently and sell to one buyer only, and threatening to leak all ~450 repositories for free to the forums within a week if no buyer is found.
