Replying to Spooky Phijkchu #spooky.131 it's not really N^2, you're simulating the second N using the readings from other array elements, and layering them (edited)
THANK YOU that's what I was trying to fucking say

Replying to Phijkchu_Pikachu #klombak central limit theorem just states that the statistical average of sequences of RVs approach a normal distribution
It's taking a sum of two RVs. One of is correlated across elements (the signal - because a signal hits every element) and the other is not correlated across elements (the noise) so when you sum up a large beam, the noise never increases, but the signal does. So that's the central limit theorem, the noise just goes into a gaussian.
I get that
I just did not see how that explained what the fuck he said it explained
I'm still confused on the N^2/N, because you're using the same data multiple times when you're overlapping. Like, you're using the same noise to smooth out.. noise. But I do understand that it's like a normalizer, but I swear you are absolutely correlating the noise by using it multiple times.
you are, that's why 4x4 MIMO adds basically nothing to modern WiFi, since you're not actually nulling anything and are just doing that same correlation again
the gains from wifi7 are really just from adding additional antennas, and you're more likely to have packets get through if you transmit more of them from different geometry, and repeat other people's packets in your downtime
I won't pretend to be a radar expert, but I suspect there is probably a more useful application there
because for telecom it's a complete joke
I hope you get sent to Iran
I hope you get sent to Toronto in 2 days
Spooky flies there every day for work

Judge a man not by his sneezes among company but by how he discharges his nose in private.

nevermind
I still think I might be in Canada
I was mad
I am less mad now, but I did want him banned for a month when I posted that while sitting at the entrance to the zoo
It was a vote, though it was a mute instead of a ban so the server didn't lose its boosts

Just push through until S2, that's when it slows down and you can reach an equilibrium
No one here has ever heard nam in reference to Melbourne since we are not australian
Also good morning fire, I guess you are awake huh
Spooky and who else?
He is here

Already ahead of ya https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Event:Wiki_Loves_Pride_2026
idk if I can single out Wikipedia, because most charities/non-profits are the same kind of scams
where they just burn money on admin costs and shareholder bloat
Wikipedia is an amazing service, but I don't give them money anymore
At this point autistic people would fully maintain wikipedia for free anyways
they don't need more than like 2-3 admins
they have to pay for infra
but they have that all secured forever anyway
They spend ~$200M/year, and their total hosting costs are ~$3.6M of that, which are fully funded by government grants anyway
I like Wikipedia though, so of all the bloated non-profits, I'm more ok with them having money to burn
just wish they were less pushy trying to get donations

I had the wierdest dream.
I dreamt I went to a conveniant store to ask for a job.
And the guy working there refused to give me a job because he thought I was Indian (and he didn't trust indians).
Now, I have nothing against people who are racist against indians. It just perplexed me that he thought I was Indian (I usually get mistaken for Italian). But also: who'd ever heard of a conveniant store owner that refuses to hire Indians?

Got pinged on my physics server for moderation action at 7 this morning
I really did not clue in that I was seeing horrific gore images when I looked at them lmao
