In the context of machine learning research, science and engineering are not distinct concepts. You don't do "science" by thinking very hard about platonic ML concepts and then publishing your thoughts. You do science by engineering systems that test small ideas, iteratively.

Similarly, deployment of ML systems is not a completely independent branch with a one-way connection to research. Remember that the purpose of machine learning research is to *generate knowledge about how to build ML systems that work in the real world*.

In the same way that the physical reality we can measure is the ultimate referential for physics research, the real-world effectiveness of our algorithms and systems is the ultimate referential for machine learning research.

Machine learning is not mathematics (if it were, we would call it mathematics)

Buggy and incomplete code is too common in the ML research field due to fast prototyping and weak support we need a better plan for Open research source

Tell this to the Applied Electrophysics community which likely still relies on distributed systems with gnarly AF Fortran 77 code. I think the good science == food code rule applies to ML research, but I could show you some good science backed by some code that you make you run.
