4/14    politicarant removed for the sake of collective sanity
        cs and eecs is tough enough as is - leave this for sproul plaza please.
        \_ Introducing facts into discussion.  Penalty, two points. -dans
        \_ What was the discussion about?
        \_ I didn't see it but whatever it was isn't the point.  If you find
           it stressful the answer is really easy: don't read it.  No one is
           here to create a nice warm fuzzy supportive happy happy nice nice
           destressed environment for you.  If you want that go to a nice
           white non-political school that gives out As for everything.  I'm
           sorry you can't deal with the competition at Cal. Censorship is
           not the answer.
                \_ Please explain 'white'?
                   \_ White: the kind of place where they won't bother you
                      with anything hard to think about or at all difficult.
                      It'll be nice, monocultural, vanilla, and you'll know
                        \_ Actually most electronic noise
                           has a PSD No/2 to tens of Terahertz.  But not
                      exactly what to think at all times.  It'll be safe and
                      warm and just like HS when you were the smart one and
                      the dumb kids always knew you would have the answer.
                      Your parents will pay a lot more and you won't learn as
                      much and you'll still be a child when you 'graduate' but
                      it'll be safe and snuggly and oooh sooo nice.  White.
                   \_ The fourier transform of the autocorrelation function
                      is frequency independent over a reasonable range of
                      frequencies, say from DC to several GHz.
                        \_ Though thermal noise
                           has a PSD kT/2 into the Terahertz, not
                           the question I was asking.
                           \_ 1) it's 4kT, and
                              2) it depends on the system; obviously if
                                 you are going through any reasonable amplifier
                                 chain, there will be rolloff long before the
                                 terahertz
                              3) i was posting a wisseass answer to your
                                 wiseass question; you were responding to an
                                 obvious and lame troll.
