ACM Digital Library
I had plans to scrap the ACM digital Library. Instead I decided to simply scim trough papers and if I liked them save them and open up the references.
Today, was the day I downloaded about 32 papers over a 30 minutes mark. It seems like ACM didn’t like it at all, I accessed other 10-20 pages which did not catch my attention due to being “off-topic”. I am making this downloads...
