Comment on CMU Researchers Break Speed Barrier In Solving Important Class of Linear Systemsparent

Comments

Do you mean, "you need not just suspect, I can confirm that in my experience at CMU the professor is over-credited", or "you need not be suspect, in my experience at CMU the credit is properly allocated"?

I interpreted Qz's comment as "this professor is deserving of the allocated credit." As a recent CMU CS grad (and student of Professor Miller) I would agree and say that this is also generally the case.

I was leaning towards that positive interpretation, given CMU's positive reputation.

But given the thread root, and not knowing any more about Qz -- indeed being unable to trivially associate that handle with a real name/project via the profile page -- a cynical comment from a disgruntled grad couldn't be ruled out.

Apologies for the lack of clarity -- my original wording was possibly more ambiguous than the one I posted and I thought I had fixed that, but I guess I failed.
