Ask HN: How To Do Research?
2 comments
It depends on what type of research you want to do?
For example, this is very good resource for medical research:

For the report is more like a collection of cherrypicked information than good research. It was discused here yesterday https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22897708
One of the comments that I think is important was made by nicolas_t:
> Haven't read much yet. But the first point already doesn't inspire much confidence. "This market is less than 9 miles away from The Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences". 9 miles away means that it's at the opposite of the city.
> I mean, that text is trying to make it seem like they are close to each other when actually it just means that both are in the same city. 9 miles is not a small distance in a big city like wuhan.
> It's like saying that Queens is next to the Statue of Liberty.

This poses the question on what are some of the resources that shows or teaches one how to do a deliberate and thorough research?
I have found one How to do Research At the MIT AI Lab? http://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/41487/AI_WP_316.pdf?sequence=4&isAllowed=y
Are there any other good resources like this one?
