I think in software you don't appreciate how important papers are compared to other subjects like chemistry.

I wonder if they had hobbyists in mind when they built that site.

In software, many times new things come out of industry, and conference papers are (IMO) equally prevalent as journal papers.

Sure but a lot of that still ends up on github (or so.) The feeling I get with chemistry is that these journals are their equivalent to our github.
