<mofh> indeed!
<UmbralRaptop> New Related Paper: "MONITORING OF SPACE DEBRIS ROTATION BASED ON PHOTOMETRY"
<UmbralRaptop> Okay, academia.edu, why do you think that I'm bnums?
<B787_300> oh link it
<UmbralRaptop> uh
<B787_300> the first link worked
<B787_300> and looks like a standard phoptometry means we can figure out rotation stuff paper
<UmbralRaptop> something something lightcurve period?
<B787_300> pretty much
<B787_300> UmbralRaptop: just so you know that first link logged me in as you
<B787_300> i have since logged out because i wanted to save that to my account as i think my PHD will be somthing along those lines
<UmbralRaptop> hm
<B787_300> yeah i now have questions about account security on that site
<UmbralRaptop> I'd describe it as "lol"

<mofh> egg|cell|egg: that's what i was thinking, yeah.
<mofh> (also i maintain /ʁ/ sounds slightly weird)

<egg> mofh: how so
<egg> mofh: also speaking of fun accents there's a polish server at the train bleu
<mofh> i do wonder how polish-accented french sounds like
<SnoopJeDi> my advisor mentioned TRIUMF in this talk yesterday and used the French pronunciation
<SnoopJeDi> and some of my cyclotron colleagues were joking about it on slack?
<SnoopJeDi> "you guys, the françois pronunciation is the most correct one, it's in Vancouver >_>"
<SilverFox> yo what if, because we're running out of letters to use for constants and shit, just use emojis?
<egg> mofh: uncertainty question
<egg> mofh: if I care about not just about the mean value of something, but the range/distribution of values that it will take, how should i represent that
<egg> mofh: e.g. i don't just want to say that the mean longitude at which the satellite crosses the egguator is 12.345(6) deg E, I want to say that it will remain within 32 arcsec (1 km) of its nominal track there
<egg> !u ī
<galois> ī: U+012b LATIN SMALL LETTER I WITH MACRON
<egg> huh
<egg> rqou: I'm surprised that this is enough to not match i
<egg> rqou: also strange cat
* rqou yawns, stretches, and nyaaas
<rqou> egg: yeah, unfortunately most of my friends seem to prefer these strange floofs known as "dogs"
<egg> caniformes
<egg> rqou: they're a weird kind of otter basically
<galois> [WIKIPEDIA] Caniformia#Phylogeny | "Caniformia, or Canoidea (literally "dog-like"), is a suborder within the order Carnivora. They typically possess a long snout and nonretractile claws (in contrast to the cat-like carnivorans, the Feliformia). The Pinnipedia (seals, walruses and sea lions) are also assigned to this group.

<mofh> egg: hmm
<egg> that 12.345(6) deg should probably have a lower uncertainty if that's the uncertainty of the mean when the range of values is within 32 arcsec but anyway,
<mofh> egg: honestly i'd just give the interval of validity in that case, pretty much eggsactly as you just stated ("12.345(6) deg E, within 32 arcsec of nominal track").
<mofh> there might be a nicer way but it's not coming to mind currently
<egg> mofh: so in that case i'd be detecting the nominal track
<mofh> hm
<egg> i.e. that 12° 34′ 56″.78(9) E would be the nominal value
<egg> (because the mean is as good a guess as any :-p)
<egg> and then I want to eggspress the range of values around it
<egg> mofh: also that would be in a UI so long quotes from the GUM are not an option as the primary way to deliver the information,
* UmbralRaptop chirps in confusion at rqou's large white otter
<mofh> egg: I mean I'm unconvinced that that's not an option in a UI,
<egg> mofh: other question is how to represent it
<egg> mofh: I can have a MeasurementResult<T> that's a measured value T and a standard uncertainty Difference<T>, but what is this dispersion?
<egg> mofh: and yes clearly i can have “where the number in parentheses is the numerical value of the combined standard uncertainty u_c referred to the corresponding last digits of the quoted result.” after every number in my UI :-p

<egg> the flat is a bit noisy though

<UmbralRaptop> Probably at some point. The final is at 0730 Monday (EDT)

<egg> um
<UmbralRaptop> [extreme Schrödinger voice]: How am I supposed to stay up that late?
<egg> UmbralRaptop: anyway, you can reread the backlog from the first part of that linalg discussion and i'll try to blather some more tomorrow
<UmbralRaptop> makes sense
