One request for help in assembling my PhD by Prior Publications dossier: if you taught, were influenced by, or otherwise used something I'm sharing (especially if there's public evidence of it!), please reply to the relevant post with that fact and some context 🙏
After 17 (!!) years I'll finally finish my doctorate as a "PhD by Prior Publications." I must assess my 151 articles, books, websites, and software packages for their contributions to and impacts on my field.
As one way to make this manageable, I'll share one thing from the dossier every few days.
