    1. nteresting trade-offbetween energy efficiency and system reliability

      recovering from faults also uses the system slack (laxity left over from when tasks are scheduled) so DVFS has to compete with that - tradeoff between saving power and system reliability

    2. reduces supplyvoltage for lower frequency requirement

      reduces how much energy is applied if like the system is operating at a lower frequency / less work is being done?

      should be the static power which runs to keep the clock running and maintain basic circuits - can only be deactivated by powering off the entire system. Should still be running when in energy-saving sleep move though I think

      if one of the functions was 5n^2 and the other was n^2 then they're both big theta of n^2

      if both are n^2 asymptotic order of growth (the same) indicate that - put them in groups or put an equal sign or something

    2. a

      think about what kind of matchings would be needed along the way to get to O(n^2) think about what series of tentative matchings we would need to get to n^2 running time looking for a general ~arbitrarily large~ thing in the looping

    1. Readers needed a symbolic form capable of making sense of the nation-state

      Like a mold to conceptualize and grasp hold of with their brain tendrils...to incorporate into their understanding of the world...like gender almost (Q4)

    2. Are there, in other words, events that · tend to happen in real spaces- and others that 'prefer' fictional ones? It is early to give a definitive answer, but Austen's novels certainly suggest that fictional spaces are particu-larly suited to happy endings, and the wish-fulfillment they usual! y embody. By contrast, the more pessimistic a narrative structure becomes, the more infrequent are its imaginary spaces.

      Damn that's kind of sad lol

    3. potential' .states, 1 would say, rather than actual ones.

      Ok are you seriously saying the novel singlehandedly created the nation-state...let's not get ahead of ourselves now

    4. nation-state ... found the novel. And viceversa: the novel found the nation-state. And being the only symbolic form that could represent it, it became an essential component of our modern culture.

    5. In the hope that the visual construct will be more than the su m of its parts: that it will show a shape, a pat-tern that may add something to the information that went into makingit.

    1. military intentionally reduced the system’s accuracy for everyone else under a program called Selective Availability.

      interesting...this is kind of like a Monmonier Chapter 8 moment

    2. The fi gure on the screen roughly corresponded to my independent estimate,” Jack says with wonder. An “estimate,” he continues, “feebly arrived at after long searches through documents, tormented arithmetic. Waves of relief and gratitude fl owed over me. The system had blessed my life. I felt its support and approval.

    3. These counter-sites are juxtaposed against one another, often telling very different stories about the same location

    1. In 1981 an Arizona jury found this fifty-three-year-old ladies’ man guilty of fraud and bigamy. Giovanni, who claimed to have married more than 105 women over thirty-three years, invariably cut short the honeymoon by absconding with his victim’s cash and jewelry.

      Lmaooo

    2. Indeed, an area cartogram would be more effective than the Peters pro- jection in boosting the importance of China, India, and Indo- nesia and in revealing the less substantial populations of Canada, the United States, the Soviet Union, and other com- paratively less crowded countries.

      TEAAAAAA

    3. lso ignored a more hu- manistic type of map projection that actually makes some Third World populations appear justifiably enormous. How much more convincing their media blitz might have been had they supported a demographic base map, or area carto- gram, similar to figure 2.10, on which the area of each coun- try is scaled according to number of inhabitants.

      tea...

    4. Indeed, Lambert and other cartographers had developed numerous equal-area map projections, including many that distorted shape much less severely than does the -Peters version.

    1. ew cartographic decisions are as subjec-tive as the selection of themes and data.

      Peters' projection masquerades as objectivity when instead we should be emphasizing the subjectivity of all human representations of space...his dumbass

    2. Because any attempt to sort out the facts might be interpretedas taking sides, journalists typically treat both positions as equallyvalid, as they did when advocates of the Peters projection promotedtheir “revolutionary” world map as an antidote for the Mercator pro-jection’s dastardly “Eurocentric” worldview.

    1. cutting the bottom of the map off at the tip of South America whileshowing most of Greenland puts western Europe closer to centerstage—a worldview now widely condemned as “Eurocentric.

      oh hell nah

    2. Only one Mercator projec-tion is used in this atlas,and this is introduced so that its qualities maybe compared with the interrupted homolographic, the newer and bet-ter projection for a world map.

      Cartographer shady/diva moments

    3. ten of the atlases cast theirmap of Africa on a sinusoidal grid,while nine framed their twin mapsof the eastern and western hemispheres on a globular projection.

    1. Englisch argues that Mercator no doubt knew of Etz-laub’s invention and that “the projection of varying latitudes should beknown as the Etzlaub-Mercator projection.”

    2. Luisette claimed his system was wholly unrelated to classical mnemonics, for which he professed disdain, and that he had discovered, entirely by himself, the “laws of natural memory.”

    3. For example, the word crocitus, Latin for “croaking of a raven,” becomes an image of the Roman diety “Pilumnus advancing rapidly on the back ofa donkey with a bandage on his arm and a parrot on his head.”
