Startup Series: Lean Analytics, Innovation, and Tilting at WindmillsThe Hive
Fifty years ago, a typical company on the S&P 500 stayed there for three-quarters of a century. Today, they last only fifteen years. Technological disruption has run roughshod through the boardrooms of the world.
At the same time, small startups with nothing to lose have become more methodical about iteration, experimentation, and innovation. Fueled by deep investment backing and unfettered by legacy distractions like regulation, customers, and infrastructure, they're turning into Billion-dollar ventures.
From lackluster jobs growth to tech speculation to the disruption of nearly every industry, the death of big companies is the elephant in the room. But can we teach the elephant to dance? Join author, entrepreneur, and Strata conference chair Alistair Croll for a look at how some large organizations are applying data-driven methods, a deliberate portfolio of innovation, and Lean approaches that help them survive—and even thrive—in a changing competitive landscape.
The document discusses vimshell, a shell plugin for Vim. Vimshell allows users to run a shell directly within Vim and provides integration with other Vim plugins. It is written entirely in Vimscript, runs on any platform Vim supports, and its scripting language is also Vimscript. The document covers pros and cons of vimshell, built-in commands, plugins, and tips for use.
Glanzmann Thrombasthenia is a rare, inherited bleeding disorder caused by a deficiency or dysfunction of the glycoprotein IIb/IIIa platelet receptor. This defect impairs platelet aggregation and leads to prolonged bleeding. The disease severity can range from mild to severe depending on the level of the glycoprotein deficiency. Treatment focuses on lifestyle modifications and medications to reduce bleeding risks.
The fetal circulation differs from the adult circulation due to the presence of three major vascular shunts that allow blood to bypass the lungs. The placenta functions as the fetus's lungs, exchanging oxygen and nutrients between the mother's and fetus's blood without mixing. At birth, changes in lung function and vascular resistance cause the shunts to close as circulation transitions to the adult pattern with blood flowing to the lungs.
Sensational iOS App Design: First Principles and New Trends for 2012Qubop Inc.
Developing good mobile interfaces is hard, but there are key factors in UX/UI design that are common across today's top iOS apps. At the same time, prominent design patterns from early or mid-2011 have already evolved and tranformed. We'll give you a quick design checklist to think about as you're planning this year's iPhone or iPad apps.
