For what it's worth: The conventional wisdom shared by many of today's software engineers calls for ignoring efficiency in the small; but I believe this is simply an overreaction to the abuses they see being practiced by penny-wi

It's not too faint. Whether or not it's too close to the sun depends on where it and the earth are in their orbits. When Mercury is at greatest elongation, it's quite visible, but you have you only view it just after sunset o

I don't think "external sources" necessarily means "multi-messenger." GW detectors are sensitive to local interference, so we have three of them spread across the globe with non-overlapping blind spots. A GW must be

I'm not sure how you arrived at your conclusion from reading that. I can only guess that you're reading something into this sentence: > Approximately 6 minutes later, a gravitational-wave candidate (later designated GW170817)

It was actually detected by two gravitational wave facilities (Hanford and Livingston) before the GRB was detected by Fermi. What you're referring to is that the gravitational wave was in a third facility's blind spot (Virgo). S
