| Oct 31, 2023 at 2:26 | comment | added | David Roberts♦ | @LSpice The answer by Iosif below capitalised Chernoff, and I've only ever seen it written that way. "Bernoullis" was slightly amusing to me, given how many of them were mathematicians, but I didn't edit it to "Bernoulli random variables". | |

| Oct 30, 2023 at 17:25 | comment | added | LSpice | @DavidRoberts, while doing some other tidying edits, I considered capitalising ‘chernoff’ (as adjective) and ‘bernoulli’ (as non-proper noun), but thought that it might be a domain-specific peculiarity. For example, though I don't, it is quite common to refer to ‘abelian groups’ and ‘euclidean spaces’, and I have even seen the startling term ‘hilbertspace’. | |
