We're pretty confident it's not a fluke, and paper + code are the next step, within a couple months. It's not "synchronize every step", but it's "do something every step".

We double and triple and quadruple checked our results, to make sure that we are in fact getting results like this while only doing our thing every step, and it really keeps holding up.

Don't trust our word for it, though, you'll see when the paper comes out :)

Um, so why announce something before even a paper with replicable details is available? To put it bluntly, what are we supposed to do with the information?

I could be less harsh if this was some grant requirement to release a report before a certain date, but I don't see any grant funding declaration.

We're excited about the potential and want to find other folks also excited about it that are interested in working for/with us to build things on the foundations of DisTrO! Plus also it's so cool and mind boggling to us that we wanted to share the hype a little bit, it was hard not being able to tell anyone we were working on it

I'm happy to have the project on my radar, and though they could be a bit clearer about the provisional nature of the research I don't think it's wrong to want to hype the potential of it a bit.
