Dr. Codd Was Right: By The Numbers - part the one hundred and fourth

The first man put at the helm will be a good one. No body knows what sort may come afterward. The executive will be always increasing here, as elsewhere, till it ends in a monarchy.
-- Ben Franklin/1787 [better late than never, MAGA!!!!]

[H]e shall take Care that the Laws be faithfully executed
-- Constitution, Article II Section 3 [stealing money from one place and putting elsewhere violates...]

[Y]ou can't rely on the industry to self-regulate here. I mean, it's just insane.
-- Bill Gates/2026 [Cassandra or prophet?]

[G]iven enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow.
-- Eric Raymond/1997/1999 [more eyeballs I guess]

There's not a single example of things working out for the appeaser.
-- Nicolle Wallace/2024 [like this? the next extortion is on the way]

Effective 1 April 2026, by this Executive Order, only attorneys approved by U.S. Attorney General ~~Pam Bondi~~ Todd Blanche will be allowed to practice law at the Federal, State, and Local levels. Bar credentials are hereby deleted. Bar associations are eliminated^{told you}. [next step from EO of 7 December 2025]
-- Hate filled, Petty, Paranoid, Demented, Dictator Don/20 March 2026

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.

-- Christopher Wylie/2018

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.

-- Chris Date/2009

This Week's thought

Google is not offering schools an option to turn off A.I. in search, a company executive said, because "search and A.I. are deeply integrated."
-- Natasha Singer/2026 [IOW, Google admits that AI is just search on meth D'oh!!!]

See you next week in a brand new show^{©Heckle and Jeckle}

Therefore:

In a time of SSD, multi-core/processor, two terabyte memory and Optane App Direct Mode (RIP) 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.

By The Numbers - part the one hundred and fourth

Scott Colom is projected, and Hyde-Smith has conceded, as Mississippi Senator. Watching MSCommie News, with their Numbers Guy (just as bad as the last one in khaki) showing results over the last few cycles. What's striking, and those who fixate on percents usually do, is that no one has yet remarked on the collapse of votes.

Colom -      473K
Hyde-Smith - 468K
2024
Trump -  747K
Harris - 466K
2024 Senate
Wicker -  763K
Pinkins - 451K

Looks like Ayatollah 17% Don^© was kinda right. Colom out voted Harris and Pinkins, while Hyde-Smith got torched by Trump and Wicker. Ya cain't win if ya don't play.
