This is amazing! Just another example of Moore’s Law.

The visualization below, inspired by the recent 50th anniversary of Moore’s law, tells the story of the trillion fold increase in computing performance we’ve witnessed over the past sixty years. That’s impressive enough, but some of the other finds are downright astounding. The Apollo guidance computer that took early astronauts to the moon, for instance, has the processing power of 2 Nintendo Entertainment Systems, while the Cray-2 supercomputer from 1985—the fastest machine in the world for its time—roughly measures up to an iPhone 4.

And I know someone who swears up and down that an iPhone 4 is not a computer. He spent two hours on the internet and he knows it’s not a computer. He even welshed on a bet he made with me about it. Of course, I spent three years in college as a computer engineering major and 27.5 years in IT with IBM in both hardware and software and I taught both hardware and software, so what do I know? Two hours on the internet trumps all of my knowledge and experience, not to mention all of the other IT people I know who get a chuckle about this. I’m up to about 300 years of IT experience trumped by his two hours on the internet. Amazing!

Great Memorial Day weekend in Baltimore! Because Black Lives Matter. Thanks to Toejam for the link.

BALTIMORE —Five people were killed and as many as six others were injured during shootings Friday night and Saturday in Baltimore, police said.

Baltimore City police are operating on high alert after a spate of violence.

“The reality is over the last five days, our guys have taken off 10 guns in separate situations, our guys have served search warrants on North Avenue and taken off some bad characters there. We had a pursuit today around Mondawmin. The officers did a good job in making arrests out there. And earlier this week, unfortunately, in the Eastern (District), where we have some traditional gang violence, five were shot and officers engaged and took two of those guys to jail, so there’s a consistent pattern of officers doing a good job out here,” Police Commissioner Anthony Batts said.

And this was just Friday and Saturday nights. When this story was written, there were still two more days to go of Memorial Day weekend. I’m sure the body count will grow higher. Remember, black lives only matter when it’s a white (or a “white Hispanic”) dude who has killed them. It’s quite OK for blacks to kill other blacks, unless it’s a black cop. No protests or riots will occur as a result of these shootings. Al Tawana Brawley Crown Heights Riots Freddie’s Fashion Mart Arson “Greek Homos” Sharpton will not go to Baltimore as a result of these shootings. He is going to Cleveland to foment riots as a result of the white cop getting off for shooting the black dudes in the car that tried to ram him.

I imagine there were a few black dudes killed in St. Louis and Chicago over the Memorial Day Weekend as well.

Update: It’s even worse. From Ron in the comments.

BALTIMORE (WJZ)–It’s been a violent weekend in Baltimore after a surge of shootings–some deadly across the city.

Police say 29 people were shot, 9 of them killed over this weekend, adding to the record-breaking violence.

The shooting didn’t stop on Monday night after a 9-year-old boy and another man were both injured by gun fire in the 2900 block of Arunah Avenue. Police say the child was shot in the leg and another man suffered a graze wound to the head.

New police video of a person of interest in Sunday’s deadly shooting in Druid Heights. It’s one of several active investigations following a Memorial Day weekend riddled with gun violence across Baltimore City.

Yep! Them black lives really matter don’t they?

Of course this is sexist. This is what the Dimocrats will say anytime someone criticizes Thunder Rodent Thighs. It worked with Obungler didn’t it? I said the day he started running that any criticism of him would be raaaaaaa-cist. So now the Dimocrats will see if accusing people of sexism will work as well as accusing people of racism.
