I know what you're saying. On the other side, #arXiv has 27 full-time staffers and a budget of $6 million/year.@petersuber But I do not understand why you would need that many people.

It's the Scale of operations. We have on the order of 0.0001 employees per new annual submissions and 0.00001 employees per overall published articles.

2. It's leaving #CornellU and moving to NYC.
3. It's hiring a CEO, with a salary in the range of $300k.@petersuber That is still within the USA, so no progress really, is it?

So why does the CEO need to receive $300k (1/20 of the entire budget)!? On a non-profit on top?Everyone else gonna get $210k per year? No, of course not! That’d be rediculous! They are just staff! We need to keep the servers running too!
But the CEO... Now that’s who really matters, amiright?
@czimm_economist -
@petersuber huh. is there some more information on that - reasoning for it, future structure and such? can't say that change of this type doesn't make me nervous.
@halcy @petersuber The next SSRN?

However much I want to love this evolution, I can’t keep myself from smelling a rat. I will be thrilled to be shown I got this all wrong.

3. It's hiring a CEO, with a salary in the range of $300k.@petersuber Well, the only people qualified for archiving prepubs are obviously people with business degrees who spout "we need more AI" all day. That's the person they're about to hire. For sure. Not because they are looking for that person maybe. But because there's nobody else out there who would take $300k in good conscience for nothing but sitting around in an office, wanking, and telling their CEO buddies that they really helped out science today.

@czimm_economist I don't think we need to worry about the people who might be doing actual work. It's the people who will certainly do no work whatsoever yet draw a salary that make me worried. But they make me worried in every organization, not just in this one. @petersuber
