  My publication on the Netflix Prize is now free. Download it here.
  The previous 4-page publication has so far over 450 citations, and the newer publication has 195 pages and 0 citations.

  So read it, cite it. My h-index is 1, and I want to increase it to 2. I don't feel like a real scientist with an h-index 1.

  You have to read it to not stay behind your competition.
This doesn't come off like a researcher dedicated to work, rather a researcher dedicated to being recognized for work.

To me it sounds like very dry humor, which would make sense, given he's from Poland.

The title is obviously also also a joke so you are probably right.

I think that I have done much, given that I was not paid for my work.

I always found it easier to earn a living by programming (I had my first job as a programmer at the age of 19).

I see that this submission disappeared from the front page, despite having 6 points. I am not sure, why.
Mithaldu
Both points and time are a factor.

It disappeared completely from the first pages just after about 20 minutes after posting it. It remained only on the /new page.
