someone on SO said it can handle "up to 100k nodes"

I'm just trying to wrap my head around things that you've tried or haven't to look at this data... like comparing all the counties in a state looking not at trump v. biden but just at the mean, median and mode and breaking up for things like turnout rates that are way outside any other counties in the state

@realz you could filter by ratios that don't repeat more than X number of times

Just thinking that trying to highlight points of where to actually look for issues rather than just trying to drown in the data

@DrSammyD the connected components filter effectively does that

it gets rid of nodes that aren't connected to K other nodes

Ah...

You could divide the image up into bands of ratios

yea

I mean

`[1030, 1022, 996, 865, 762, 622, 610, 583, 493, 464, 421, 397, 384, 371, 347, 331, 330, 325, 315, 287]`

this is the top 20 hairballs

I can't split any one of these hairballs up

a ratio of 1030 appears in this data?

no

1030 reports are connected to eachother as having the same ratio within the threshold delta time

Ah I see

those 1030 reports must show up on the same graph in order to have meaning

I am hoping I can fit 20 of them

the thing is, without the full graph, we won't see how rare this is

we are selecting for it

Could you imagine if it appeared here as we're doing this, but never in other cities...

"So much fraud, we couldn't even render it"

lol

I been through this

"can you imagine if you find P=NP"

isn't P=NP the minesweeper problem

uh I dunno if minesweeper can be framed as a P vs NP problem

lol

it apparently can be framed as a minesweeper problem

but it would not be a typical game lol

this is kinda beautiful

I've proved another game to be NP-hard, and it looked like this sort of thing

`The link to the computer game comes when we introduce the
Minesweeper Consistency Problem. This is not to find the
mines, but to determine whether a given state of what
purports to be a Minesweeper game is or is not logically
consistent.`

it is not a regular game of minesweeper

oh gosh my mind

Sorry... I just remember a prof trying to explain it to us and using minesweeper as an example... its been long enough since I thought about it so I can't speak intelligently on it

Traveling Salesman Problem is the classic example

I just remember its one of the classically difficult math equations to represent and prove or disprove
