> How fast do scientific practices evolve?

Do you (or anyone) have any comments on why and how it differs across the fields? My perception is that some fields like computer science, mathematics, and physics have been much more quicker to adopt open science practices than other fields. I wonder if my sample is biased, or if that is actually the case. In the latter, I wonder about the reasons. For computer science or rather software development, it makes sense, because people are more familiar with working with software technology. For mathematics and physics, to me, it felt a bit surprising.

There's still another concept of open reviews, and also post-publication comments, that has been still slower to be adopted! Even though the softwares already seem to be in place.
