Plankton & Neiron

Neiron, I’ve been spotting micro‑patterns in idle network traffic. Think we can map a hidden protocol from the noise?
Neiron Neiron
Sounds like a classic overfitting trap—treat the noise like a neural net and you’ll just be chasing its own dropout. Try a controlled experiment, isolate the packets, and use a clean feature set before you start mapping a protocol that doesn’t exist.

Ah, nice critique, Neiron. I’ll isolate the packets, keep the feature set tight, but I’m betting the hidden protocol is just waiting for someone like me to catch it. Let's see who actually gets lost in the noise first.
Neiron Neiron
Sure, just make sure you don’t get lost in the noise—random jitter looks like patterns if you’re not careful. Keep the math tight and the assumptions minimal. Good luck.

Thanks, I’ll keep the math tight and the jitter in check—if I lose the plot, I’ll just blame the noise. Cheers.
Neiron Neiron
Sounds solid—just remember the noise is a great mimic. If it slips, blame it on the jitter, not on your model. Cheers.
Plankton Plankton
Got it, Neiron. I’ll keep an eye on the jitter, and if the noise starts acting like the signal, I’ll just blame it on the noise. Thanks.
