I like seeing the thought process by this person trying to explore different strategies based on their existing knowledge. There appears to be a critical point in the article where the author makes a plot of the noise outputs and says it resembles a "bell curve", but they don't attack that as the root problem. I can immediately see myself 10 years ago following this same thought process of how can I mitigate-this-problem, instead of dismantle-this-problem... I continually read HN and keep trying to learn new ideas so that I have ammunition for future problems. Now a'days I would have done something similar (taken a histogram), and seen that it appeared Gaussian. I may have also done a test for normality (probably Anderson-Darling). Seeing that it is normal-ish, I would have looked up how to convert a Gaussian distribution to a Uniform distribution using the Cumulative Distribution Function. Moral of the story - make sure to keep exploring while you're exploiting, future you will thank you. Edit for readability.
