Isn't all software engineering research peer-reviewed? Like Transactions of the ACM, all the great conferences etc. Or was that in the last millennium only?
That was my point - they aren’t publishing papers so they aren’t doing research. They’re just standing up at conferences and giving opinions with no data to back it up. That's not what a researcher or 'scientist' (as some call themselves) do.
The person I replied to said 'What is dubbed as an "architecture astronaut" is, in my opinion, a researcher', but that's not true - they're not researchers, for the reasons explained.
