New Site Design Live!

Looks good, though there might be one piece missing? The "reputation" text color for accepted answers should probably be a little lighter (or different from the current blue). The "answers" one ...

Again, I am getting tired of all the stale, unanswered questions being dredged up by "Community"

Yeah, when I saw the main page this morning I felt the same. But honestly I don't think we can do much about that. Potentially we could ask to decrease the amount of questions that are being bumped. ...

Should short answers be comments or answers?

Well, I probably should have left that as an answer rather than a comment. I tend to just comment if I'm in a hurry and don't have time to compose a more complete answer. Though, for that question, I ...

Name change for DSP.SE?

I think sticking to the way things are now is not a bad idea. A good example is the IEEE signal processing society. You got many sub-fields that just fall under the same head denomination, but defined ...

Stack Exchange Signal processing in the real life: meeting contributors

Welcome to Hämeenlinna, Finland. I've met with two on-line friends from music-dsp circles. It was great both times, had pizza with the first one (I bicycled to Sweden where we met) and beer with the ...

Let's get critical: Mar 2015 Site Self-Evaluation

The big problem I have is the large number of questions which seem to have decent answers, but for which the questioner has not awarded a tick.

should we encourage or expect posters to adopt the current common notation, $x[n]$, for discrete-time signals?

I don't strongly care about what variable is used to index the signal ($t$ versus $n$ and so on), but I do think it's an important notational distinction to use square brackets when referring to a ...

Design for Signal Processing Stack Exchange

Looks great Stéphane! The one thought I have about it (in addition to Peter's suggestion) is that the waveform might benefit from a level of secondary detail to suggest that the signal has been ...

Citing StackExchange or the Signal Processing group

SE.DSP is peer reviewed to some extend. Not in the traditional "journal" sense, meanwhile predatory publishing or randomized peer-review, to name a few, have changed the deal. A post in SE.DSP can ...

Stack Exchange Signal processing in the real life: meeting contributors

I also think it could be fun meeting some SE.DSPers IRL if our space-time paths can be made to intersect with little effort. I can usually be found in the Eindhoven area, the Netherlands.

Self-answering without peer-review: benefit or harmful

The short answer is yes - you can and you should answer your own questions. Please read more about it in the FAQ. However, I do not understand what do you mean by "there was no review of any kind"?

This is a well-known problem on the Stack Exchange network, and there are automatic mechanisms in place to try to deal with it. I'm not sure if the process will be triggered by two downvotes, but it ...

Where should I go for non-Q&A DSP discussions?

One place to take discussions here on SE.SP is the post-processing chat room. this does require a certain amount of reputation before you can see it and post it. Many of the old-timers here started ...

Question's title idem as content, and nothing more. Your thoughts on this?

This would be a sign for me, reflecting lack of context and enough prior self-attempt. Due to this impression, these questions usually receive less attention. The best strategy (in my opinion) is to ...
