Dr. Codd Was Right: Your Cheatin Heart

Vaccinated ≠ Not Infectious

Covid-19 has killed at least 1,123,836 people (as of 20 March 2023, final update)

Scientists aren't vocal enough about science. There are large groups of people who think scientists are all frauds and who don't believe in science, and they're being cultured by some of our far right-wing politicians, religious leaders and community leaders.

To date, Microsoft is stating that organizations testing In-Memory OLTP have seen transaction speeds improve by up to 30 times compared to past performance, with the best performance gains achieved when the business logic resides in the database and not in the applications.
-- Jonathan Watts/2015 [my emphasis]

I have had to explain and re-explain and re-explain and re-explain, you know, how relational databases work, what is an eigenvector, what is dimensionality reduction.

... but Flash-based storage has such a different performance profile from rotating media, that I suspect that it will end up having a large impact on filesystem design. Right now, most filesystems tend to be designed with the latencies of rotating media in mind.

-- Linus Torvalds/2007

I believe quite strongly that, if you think about the issue at the appropriate level of abstraction, you're inexorably led to the position that databases must be relational.

This week's thought

[The intelligence community] argued that [the restrictive amendment] would cripple the program because they typically use it before there is enough evidence to meet a standard of probable cause for a warrant, like early in investigations when they are trying to learn more about a phone number or an email account found to be in contact with a suspected foreign spy or terrorist.

Therefore:

In a time of SSD, multi-core/processor, two terabyte memory and Optane App Direct Mode machines, there is no reason not to build from BCNF data. Time to do what Dr. Codd demonstrated. Technology has finally caught up with the maths.

June 15, 2021 


                           New York Times 

                        by A. Corres Pondent 


     RED STATES WITH SPARSE VACCINATIONS EXPLODE WITH COVID

To the surprise of No One, the Red States, which have been lax in getting their populations vaccinated, are experiencing a resurgence in Covid. The curve started back up on May 14, the day after the CDC and President Biden announced that the fully vaccinated are free to go about their lives without a mask in all venues, not just outdoors.

To the surprise of No One, all those Red State Yahoos immediately dis-masked, even though the majority eligible for vaccines have refused to be vaccinated. If the rest of the country is fortunate, the Yahoos will infect themselves to death.

It can now be revealed that A. Corres Pondent is the nom deFakeNews of Mitch Smith and Julie Bosman whose report today, laggard though it be (dead trees version), confirms the fact:

"I hope and pray that it doesn't come to West Virginia and just absolutely runs across our state like wild," said Gov. Jim Justice, whose state has recorded relatively few cases recently but has a low vaccination rate. "But the odds are it will."

Of course, he used to be a Democrat, so there's that to consider.

Let's look at the bottom 5, as of today, compared to where they were on 14 May

             cases    per 100K
Louisiana      1,500     24 
 
Wyoming          124     15 
 
Arkansas       1,309     33 

Mississippi      557     13 

Alabama        1,398     14

[14 May]

             cases    per 100K
Louisiana      421    10 
 
Wyoming         83    12 
 
Arkansas       383     8 [entered 24 June] 

Mississippi    201     8 

Alabama        285     6

The Alabama 14 May data hasn't been cleaned up, so this is still the 7-day average cases.

So in all, A. Corres Pondent got it right. If one reads deeply of the Fake News, the worst is yet to come. Remember Ronny VirusSeed^©'s Spring Break Infectiathon (28 March 2020) from Spring Break 2020? Same shit going on in the Redneck states still. Still no cure for stupid.
