Signal isolation is an interesting problem; deriving and applying filters can be fun as any game. Although the eventual payout from his lawsuit against PNL may be a financial bonanza, Joe’s filtering of the data is almost certainly a larger prize. An ε chance of payout does not dissuade people from spending a lifetime looking for signal (think π) when there may be no signal at all; I suspect the difficulty for this voyage of discovery will be isolating only the strongest signals from the background of steady signals. I know Joe wants mounts for his walls; mere trophies to warm the heart with memories of the hunt. Here’s to the glory of the stalk and the thrill of the kill.

Thrill of the chase
23 March 2007300
9 March 2007Caught the 00:01 showing of 300 this morning; the movie, sadly, ends as you might expect. What is there to say that you won’t read everywhere else? The movie looks lush, the sound is crisp – everything you would expect from the trailers. I was a little let down that the theatre didn’t have a digital copy; many of the trailers were digitally projected, it would have been nice to see the main feature that way as well.
