I use Debian and love OpenBSD.

This has a rather deep philosophical basis.

Or can we sum more accurately by taking the stable_mean and multiplying by n?

1. Use good quality cards

2. /tmp on tmpfs

You're welcome.

1. The 400 is faster than the 4 OOTB, and can be overclocked easily. 2. The 400 runs much cooler. 3. 4GB is plenty ;)

Chilling stuff

Looks like things started to get _much_ better after Virgo joined. I assume that is because of the increased "baseline" (angular resolution) and because two different instruments at different locations makes it easier to detect & reject spurious signals.

> and because two different instruments at different locations

Virgo is the 3rd actually. LIGO consists of 2 separate facilities. But yes, having more detectors decreases the degrees of freedom when calculating the origin of the signal.

Remove the trailing backslash.

Guess . . . . "Because the rest of the commentors in this thread seem to not be reading the article"

We'll, they're not reading the article, yet they're expecting people to read their comment. And if not, why comment at all?

I think some selective derision is warranted.

While it says that "[...] you need to use a Chromium or Webkit browser to enjoy MONOSPACE live." (emphasis mine), it does not say "DO NOT USE FIREFOX UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, it will mess up your device for minutes" anywhere.

We saw so many (warranted or unwarranted) "Best viewed with Chrome"-statements on the web already that we became desensitized to it years ago.

No, please don't add derision to HN threads. When someone else is wrong, it's enough to supply correct information. That enhances the thread without damaging the commons.

Are you saying everything everyone says is above critique, or that derision specifically is not welcome?

The latter. It's never needed and does more harm than good.

Ok. Thanks for answering.
