91-DIVOC -- A project to explore the global growth of COVID-19. Updated daily

I like 91-DIVOC a lot, as it allows one to customize plots in great detail. Specifically, it allows one to generate plots that are logarithmic in both daily cases and daily deaths, both being the one-week moving-window average versus date. This kind of plot very clearly tells the story, allowing one to get past the media screaming that cases are up and we're all gonna die.



Anyway, here are the links:

It's funny that you seem to think these plots tell a story. What story wou ld that be exactly?

I see the same story that the news seems to be telling. We are worse off n ow than we have been at any point during this infection just as Fauci and o thers had forecast. In fact, I was a doubter and thought Fauci was a pessi mist in thinking that we would not be able to control this through protecti ve means. I made the mistake P. T. Barnum warned about ,underestimating th e intelligence of people. I fully expected that with the huge initial peak coming on we would get it under control and prevent a massive pandemic. B ut no. Then I thought with the second peak in the US we would get our act together and people would realize how bad this really is. No, again, I mad e the P. T. Barnum mistake. Now that the virus is rampaging yet again I am not making the same mistake of betting on the intelligence of the American people... I'm selling short. People like JL have taught me just how smar t P. T. Barnum really was.

It's amazing how many new ICs just TI keeps introducing. They must have an army of engineers doing that. I wonder where they get the ideas and specs and prices from.

I suspect that most of the rare young analog design talent is being scooped up by the big IC companies.

I want a fast (say, 65 MHz, 10 or 12 bit) ADC with low pipeline delay. Numbers like 4 to 6 are common, and I just saw a nice dual ADC with a pipeline delay of 38 clocks. It's hard to close a loop around that.

By the way, MS Internet Explorer may not work. But Firefox and Chrome both work for me.

There's an industry subsector of consulting analysts and product portfolio development specialists. Like this one:

That's just an example, don't know anything about them. There are lots of o thers.

They hire anybody. Topnotch design managers can effectively supervise dozen s of people of lesser talent.

If you want a low delay, 1 bit ADC (a comparator) is your target. There's lots to choose from, and zero to one clock delay.

It was his polite way of getting back onto topics of interest to engineers and designers. Very refreshing.

John Larkin isn't remotely polite. His reaction to thread he doesn't like i s to make some spurious appeal about getting the thread back to electronics , where he's got a chance to boast about one of his own circuits, not that many of them are worth boasting about. He spends a lot of time re-inventing the wheel.
