Research is a joke?

Just read the chapter of Quasi-Newton Methods and came across this paragraph:
"The first quasi-Newton algorithm turned out to be one of the most creative ideas in nonlinear optimization. .... An interesting historical irony is that Davidon's paper was not accepted for publication; it remained as a technical report for more than thirty years until it appeared in the first issue of the SIAM Journal on Optimization in 1991."

It seems that high-quality work is more difficult to publish.

However, computer science still generates thousands of papers each year. How many paper will be remembered after 5 years?

Fast food is everywhere. This also includes "fast paper". Ridiculous!
