What is 'counterintuitive'? There is general agreement that it refers to a violation of previously held knowledge, but the precise definition seems to vary with every author and study. The aim of this paper is to deconstruct the notion of 'counterintuitive' and provide a more philosophically ...
What is an example of quantum entanglement? An example of quantum entanglement that I work with involves a light source that emits two photons at a time. Those two photons of a pair can be entangled so that the polarizations of the individual photons can be any orientation (i.e., random...
2009年1月1日，张某拒绝向李某支付到期租金，李某忙于事务一直未向张某主张权利。2009年6月20日，李某因出差遇险无法行使请求权的时间为30天。根据《民法通则》的有关规定，李某请求人民法院保护其权利的诉讼时效期间是( )。
A good example of derivative brands is the recent surge in "mattress-in-a-box" e-commerce companies. These companies produce mattresses, sell them via online stores, and ship them in space-saving, rolled-up packaging to customers. They don't have a physical retail presence. This is a fund...
An example of launching too far ahead of the opportunity would be a marketplace for sharing quantum computing capability. Quantum computing is going to be a huge opportunity at some point, but it might not be wise to set up a marketplace for sharing that capability today; you'd be some ...
Also, below is an example of a cart abandonment (or actually browse abandonment) email sent by Timberland. It’s an interesting example as it not only shows the product I’ve looked at on the Timberland site but also provides some additional product recommendations. ...
The latter was much better, which seems counterintuitive, because instead of taking people to point of purchase, we’re now taking them away, and there’s an extra layer in the funnel. But what we found out is that people need to be able to trust this, and you need to lower the ...
The most common way to interpret results is to view it as an X:1 ratio, where X is the result of your equation and 1 represents one dollar spent on acquisition. So, for example, if your business’s LTV is $1,200 and your CAC is $500, your equation would be 1,200/500 = 2.4 ...
Improved productivity.While it’s counterintuitive, working less has been proven inmultiple studiesto lead to greater productivity. Again, these effects may backfire if long, 10-hour days lead to fatigue and mistakes. But the basic concept behind the four-hour workweek that allows three days for...
The way quantitative trading models function can best be described using an analogy. Consider a weather report in which the meteorologist forecasts a 90% chance of rain while the sun is shining. The meteorologist derives this counterintuitive conclusion by collecting and analyzing climate data from se...
