Do secondary studies in Software Engineering even contribute to the evolution of knowledge anymore, or are they just surface-level summaries that harvest easy citations while increasing the volume of published research?

🔇 🔇 🔇 My book, Deep Unlearning, is now available for preorders! I don't know how people write so many books because this one took a lot out of me. It turns out, I had a lot to say 😂, with editors cutting out 50k of my words 🫣 ✴️ You can now preorder it at www.simonandschuster.com/books/Deep-U....
Cover of my new book, Deep Unlearning: The Rise of AI and The Radicalization of a Tech Idealist. 

There are two concentric circles in the book, the left being circuits in black an white, and the right being a bunch of dots with orange accents. The cover background is cream. And the words are written in black except for "Un" which is in orange.

Reminder that, BY THEIR OWN REPORTING, Google's energy use increased by 37% in 2025, because of AI. A single year. Also, southern Europe is currently on literal fire and we're facing possibly the worst super El Niño on record. I hate it here.
