![]() It’s surprisingly good fun seeing 20 drivers drifting as ghosts around the same track. It’s silly, not too fast, and perfect for online play, as is the returning drifting discipline. Adding trucks to the racing mix has proved a great idea, as they lean precariously around Parisian streets, leaping over jumps and bunnyhopping each other with abandon. There are still outlier races that are too hard or too easy throughout the game, so sadly there’s no one setting that works for everything.įor realistic opponents, there’s another commendably solid multiplayer offering, now with 22 cars on-track at the same time, with mid-race drop-in enabled. Difficulty in general is a little unbalanced, and the hardest difficulty can feel too hard compared to the next one down, which can be too easy. ![]() Story mode is done and dusted in about seven hours if you’re reasonably proficient, although that will vary depending on your difficulty level choice. Suddenly you’ve got nemeses all around as you protest your innocence, but it all adds to the entertainment. Just drafting them down a straight can cause the nemesis state to engage or, worse still, they’ll spin out of their own accord and slew into you as they roll sideways across the track, which apparently is your fault too. They do indeed lunge for you when they’re triggered, which is fun, but the actual criteria for them turning against you feels arbitrary. Just look at his smug little face.Ĭomplementing this is the returning Nemesis feature, which turns AI opponents nasty if you bump into them too much. I genuinely wanted to beat him and the rest of the core cast every time I saw their names in front of me. It makes a huge difference to your emotional investment when you have a named rival to chase during races, and Grid Legends leverages McKane’s presence to great effect. But what wholly justifies the inclusion of the story mode is that all-important sense of rivalry. It’s of similar quality, so if you enjoyed that then you should like this too, though it’s perhaps fair to point out that there’s only so much you can do when it comes to a racing game story. While the story is reasonably well-scripted and acted by the ensemble cast, it nonetheless feels almost exactly like Braking Point, the CG-rendered story mode from F1 2021. It’s great to put a face to that name after all these years and he’s suitable greasy. Channeling Codemasters' own TOCA Race Driver 2 from 2004, there are cutscenes before each of the races in Story Mode, as you join the struggling Seneca racing team and take on long-time rivals Ravenwest with their star driver, Nathan McKane. The second biggest change is that headline addition of a live-action story mode. Even though your car slides at every opportunity, it’s actually disguising the fact there’s a great deal of grip here, making for an enjoyable experience whatever your skill level. It just didn’t feel quite right in the last game, whereas here it’s arguably the most playable handling system of any modern racer that doesn’t have ‘Kart’ in its title. No, not the added story mode, it’s more fundamental than that it’s the handling. It is very clearly similar to 2019’s Grid reboot, although there is immediately one thing that’s changed that makes this offering worth the upgrade. Instantly beautiful, fast and playable, Grid Legends provides the perfect counterpoint to serious sim racing.

An object 35 AU from Earth would only be a few thousandths of a Light Year away. The Light Year is fine for measuring distances to stars or other galaxies but not for measuring distances within our own solar system. ![]() The Light Year is about 64,500 times larger than the Astronomical Unit, too large to be appropriate for an object the size of our solar system. You might wonder why we don’t use this unit when discussing the solar system. In reading astronomy people encounter the unit called a Light Year, which is the distance light travels in one year (about 6 trillion miles). Then if we say an object is 35 AU from the Earth we mean it is 35 times as far from the Earth as the Earth is from the Sun or 35 times 93 million miles. One astronomical unit is defined as the average distance from the Earth to the Sun, approximately 93,000,000 miles. Instead scientists devised another unit, called the astronomical unit (AU), which is convenient to use for making measurements within our solar system. The solar system is extremely large and the mile is just too small of a unit to use for measuring interplanetary distances. But it’s awfully cumbersome to say that a beetle is 0.000016 miles long or that Memphis is 5 069 000 inches from Jackson.Īs we measure larger and larger sizes, different units are applied. You could measure insects in miles and highway distances in inches, and be technically correct. You would measure the length of a bug in inches, or the distance to Memphis in miles. Whenever we make a measurement, whether in science or everyday life, we choose a unit appropriate to the scale of the object being measured. In 1875 the "Treaty of the Meter" was signed by the major countries of the world (including the United States), making the meter the official world standard for length. We have continued to refine and change our units, seeking to use those with more permanence. In 1670 a Frenchman, Gabriel Mouton, proposed standardizing the length to relate to a physical measurement of the Earth. Obviously this varied from person to person and there was little standardization. A cubit was the distance from the elbow to the tip of the index finger the foot was the length of a person’s foot a fathom was the length of a man’s outstretched arms. Long ago the human body was used as a reference. There is always a number and some unit (a group of words). We weigh 150 pounds we buy 20 oz of a liquid it is 150 km to the next town we are going 50 mph and so forth. When we make a measurement, we use a number and a name called the unit of the measurement.

In BigWorld mode, a bigger earth is simulated by decreasing the range and speed of a players’ military resources but at the same time increasing the number of military resources by a factor of 2. The game then progresses as players began to betray the alliance in order to win the game. In Diplomacy, all players start the game as part of an alliance. In Speed Mode, Defcon runs with a much faster clock and the game lasts a fraction of the time of a regular game. The mode is designed to run in as long as a typical workday. This mode lasts much longer than a regular game because the regular game mode has a slower clock. The game runs in real-time and silent notifications are given whenever a key event happens in the game. In Office Mode, Defcon runs in silent mode and behind the main desktop. The typical game will last around 45 minutes. After a set amount of the total number of the nukes are deployed, Defcon 1 ends and the final battles are had within a last-minute timer. Throughout the game the player aims to kill as many people as possible all while keeping to the other objective of the game to have the greatest number of people remaining in their country among all the players. The player may also create strategic alliances with other players through the use of in-game chatting systems that allow the player to use their allies' radars to learn more about locations of enemies. The typical military warfare continues until Defcon 1 is hit, when the players may engage in nuclear warfare. Once Defcon 3 is hit, players may engage in battle over typical military means but not in nuclear warfare. Over Defcon 5 and Defcon 4, the player may place their military resources but not engage in battle. The game incorporates a Defcon timer that counts down from Defcon 5 to Defcon 1. ![]() Along with the continent of people, come a variety of military resources they must place such as nuclear silos, radars, naval fleets, and air force bases. ![]() In Defcon, each player is given control of a continent on Earth and given the same number of people to rule over. ![]() The company then harnessed this built-in function to speed bioinformatics calculations. However, “our skilled computer programmers realized it was an ideal technology for bioinformatics, which also runs lots of parallel calculations,” says Knudsen. The MMX technology, added in 1996, was intended for handling complex graphics but never caught on. The software engineers at CLC Bio accomplished this by creating new data-compression algorithms to take advantage of computing power inherent in Intel microprocessors that generally lies dormant.Īll Intel microprocessors contain the MMX™ technology that runs many calculations in parallel. The company also adds that its assembler requires 48 gigabytes of RAM compared to others that need 300 gigabytes of RAM. CLC Bio says that its de novo assembler algorithm runs 50 times faster than existing products, and deciphers complete datasets in just a few hours. In March 2010, CLC Bio released a de novo assembler that constructs whole genomes of any size, including human and plant genomes, on a single workstation computer. He notes some key improvements to this version, including capabilities for parallel job executions on multiple computers through multiple job nodes, integration of third-party command-line tools and algorithms, support for file sharing and data management, and additional HTS analyses such as digital gene expression for RNA sequencing, SNP and DIP detection, and ChIP-seq analysis. Version 2.0 of the CLC Genomics Server includes a wider range of features for handling HTS data, says Knudsen. The company says that the server provides flexible options for executing centralized services, easy integration with other applications and services, powerful database communication and data integration, and a secure access control framework and central-action logging. CLC Bio describes the Genomics Server a bioinformatics solution built on a three-tier server architecture. “A key to our success is that our customers can mix data, and that will continue with new platforms,” he says.Įarly in 2010, the company released version 2.0 of the CLC Genomics Server, an enterprise platform for next-generation sequencing data analysis. This overlying strategy extends to software in development to handle the hundreds of thousands of reads generated by upcoming third-generation sequencers. Because different sequencing instruments offer different advantages, it makes sense to mix datasets into hybrid assemblies, Knudsen notes. Users of CLC Bio’s software are not locked into a single platform, but can use any or all HTS machines. “We had a head start in the market, making us a premiere solution provider.” When first launched, “no other companies were doing this,” says Knudsen. The CLC Genomics Workbench is a comprehensive package that analyzes and visualizes data from all major next-generation HTS platforms, such as SOLiD by Applied Biosystems, 454 GSflx by Roche, and Solexa by Illumina. “So there’s a critical demand for solutions that are really adept at handling and analyzing these huge amounts of data,” he says. In fact, the amount of genomic sequencing data increases 10-fold every 18 months. Whereas first-generation sequencing machines typically generate 0.1 megabases of data per run, second-generation instruments can spew out up to 40,000 megabases in a single run, explains Knudsen. The CLC Genomics Workbench, released in 2008, analyzes data from second-generation HTS instruments. In 2007, the company switched its focus to the analysis of next-generation sequencing data. Right: comparing expression across samples and clustering differentially expressed genes in a heat map Working with RNA-Seq data in CLC Genomics Workbench: Left: mapping of reads showing evidence of expression of three splice variants for this gene. Although designed for first-generation sequence data, he believes that the software makes a good teaching tool for students in molecular biology. When first launched, the software was “a powerful and intuitive way to show people how to do bioinformatics,” says Thomas Knudsen. In the first year, 100,000 downloads occurred, and by 2008, the number of downloads passed one million. The Sequence Viewer software remains free and can be downloaded from the company’s website. ![]() srt file encoded in UTF8 and placed in the same folder as the input file.

Providers and regulators can also use social media data to monitor performance in real time, using natural language processing and machine learning to scan consumers’ text reviews for keywords of interest related to patient safety. ![]() This could help inform patients about the quality of insurers in relation to their premiums. Policymakers should look for ways to feature Yelp reviews where consumers are likely to make important decisions, including on private or public health insurance exchanges. But for researchers or consumers seeking more nuanced health data, putting other objective measures on hospitals’ Yelp landing pages would provide even more context about hospital performance. Giving a clear and concise summary of medical provider performance, as Yelp reviews do, is valuable. When these sources of information are combined, we can achieve an even deeper explanation of the differences in hospital performance for readmissions. ![]() Controlling for the share of a hospital’s admissions of low-income patients (with Medicaid insurance) or its share of surgical admissions all added more information than Yelp ratings alone. Yelp ratings proved to be significantly reliable sources for evaluating the differences across performance for potentially preventable hospital readmissions.īut we also found that a lot of other important information is found elsewhere, particularly in data on hospitals’ treated populations. In a nutshell, we found that the reviews provided a simple and clear tool for directing patients toward higher-quality hospitals. Experts believe that many readmissions are preventable. “Preventable” means that the hospital, through better coordination with the patient or the patient’s other doctors, could’ve prevented a potentially dangerous and expensive complication that sent the patient back into medical care. We examined whether trusted Yelp reviews (screened to weed out fraudulent reviews) correlated with health care quality metrics for New York hospitals, including preventable hospital readmissions and mortality after hospital treatment for certain conditions (such as heart attacks) or procedures (such as stomach surgeries). Yelp provided us with an opportunity to test whether social media reviews correlate with objective health care measures. Yelp has even partnered with ProPublica to publish average wait times, readmission rates, and quality of communication scores for more than 25,000 hospitals, nursing homes, and dialysis clinics. Online services like ZocDoc, Healthgrades, and Yelp are democratizing health care information, making it easier for consumers to find and understand information about physicians and hospitals. In addition, government surveys of hospital patients are certainly not as widely used as social media platforms. The government publishes gigabytes of high-quality health care data, but much of it is complex, hard for consumers to understand, and potentially irrelevant to what consumers want to know when they access care. The question then becomes: How and where can consumers find accessible, reliable information about hospital quality that can guide them when they need care? And how can we help these tools gain traction? New tools like reference pricing-setting a baseline fee that low-cost, high-quality providers might accept-or tiering arrangements-offering lower copays for free-standing MRIs compared to hospital-affiliated services-could potentially help with this. ![]() No matter how the federal health care debate turns out, developing more reliable health care guides for consumers has the potential improve care quality, saving lives and eliminating billions of dollars in needless costs.Īccording to the Health Care Cost Institute, about 43% of all spending by individuals with employer-sponsored insurance in 2011 was shoppable, meaning that it was spent on medical services whose prices could be significantly lowered without compromising quality. Yet in a new Manhattan Institute study of New York State hospital ratings on Yelp, which boasts some 140 million unique monthly users, Yelp reviews were correlated with better medical care. Industries like health care, however, remain stubbornly opaque and resistant to dedicated consumer feedback. ![]() In businesses, a blank note card template serves the purpose of sticky notes as well.
