It pulls in data on the fly, splits it along separate paths, and moves the data from one processor to the next like a part on an assembly line.
Action movies used to be full of scenes of glorious bullshit like that flying split: Consider the original Hard Target, where Van Damme stands on his motorcycle like it's a surfboard, jumps over an oncoming van full of bad guys, and then wheels around and shoots the van so that it explodes.
For T3 as an example, the nearest bracketing species-split times were 830 Myrs (million years before present, same below) of the vertebrate-fly split and 430 Myrs of the tetrapod-teleost split.
The age of T3 should satisfy 830-T33)/(T3-430) = d1/d2, where d1 was the distance from T3 to the vertebrate-fly split and d2 was the average distance from T3 to the two subordinate tetrapod-teleost splits in the linearized tree.
She wore pants rather than skirts when she performed, and, somewhat as a result, she developed an athletic, acrobatic style, employing mule kicks and flying splits, more in the manner of the male dancers of the time.
Even in his earliest, wildest days, when his determination to kill an audience was such that he would swing from the rafters, cut flying splits from atop a grand piano, and even leap from a theatre balcony into the orchestra pit, his outrageousness was carefully calculated to convey that, while he cannot be contained, he is always in control.
"It's just life!" says Lauren Fitzpatrick, who's been leaping into the air to touch her toes in a flying splits move.
Guitar solos, flying splits, turning his microphone stand into a dance partner, laying down the funk or reclaiming "Nothing Compares 2 U" from O'Connor, who'd just scored a No. 1 hit with it.
We used the widely accepted species split times for calibration, including primate-rodent (80 Myrs ago), mammal-bird (310 Myrs ago), mammal-amphibian (350 Myr ago), tetrapod-teleost (430 Myr ago) and vertebrate-fly splits (830 Myr ago) [ 33].
