Let's say there's a truly "permanent" marker with unlimited ink. What would you do with it?
Achieve World Domination.No, really! If used correctly, a completely permanent marker has the potential to be a very powerful weapon.The first thing I’d do is find this guy:Muhtar Kent, CEO of Coca-Cola and owner of Dasani water, the most popular bottled water in the world.I use my incredible strength and wit (or a tazor) to overpower him. I explain to him that I have a sharpie that cannot be erased, and demonstrate its power.Then, I tell him that if he doesn’t sign the entire DASANI® corporation over to me, I will draw a dick on his forehead. In permanent marker. Which will never, ever wash off.Understanding that this would mean the end of his professional and social career, he agrees.I now own one of the highest-grossing water companies in the world.NOW.FOR THE WORLD DOMINATION PART.Seeing that this Sharpie has unlimited ink, I dip the Sharpie into one of Canada’s vast rivers. Slowly, the ink will leak out and poison the river system. After many weeks/months, I succeed in eliminating the main source of drinkable water in the country.(Tedious, yes. But sometimes you gotta play the long game.)Now that the country’s freshwater reserve is nearly depleted, bottled-water stock SOARS.As the new owner of DASANI®, this is exactly what I wanted. I buy a reserve of underground freshwater that remains clean and use it to keep my company running. Within a matter of days, the competitors have run out of product, and I become filthy rich.My next stop is an appointment with this guy:Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister of Canada. Now that I am a rich and influential business owner, I have no trouble getting an audience with him.I explain to him what I have done with the water, and give him an incentive: if he steps down as Prime Minister and gives me legal authority over the government, I won’t poison any more water. The citizens of his country will live.If he still isn’t convinced, I use the ‘drawing-a-dick-on-the-forehead’ thing again. He resigns immediately, and Canada is mine.Using my new diplomatic influence, I slowly meet with every other world leader and repeat the process with each, until I have a small empire under my command.I proceed to use said empire to take over the rest of the world.And as easily as that, I’ve become the Empress of Earth with nothing but a simple Sharpie!If that doesn’t work, I would probably just draw some funky pictures and call it a day.(P.S: This is a joke, pls don’t attack me.)

Why wait for three days to declare the Delhi election results in spite of EVMs (electronic voting machines)? Is it to manipulate
Why wait for three long days to announce the election results , when we have up to date technology in place ?.This question really makes sense !!!I hear answers saying that it is all due to long procedures on voting day.I do accept that . But there is more than that to it .Simplicity :EVM's were introduced by BHARAT ELECTRONICS LIMITED. EVM had to be used for diverse and many illiterate people. Ease of use is important. Hence, the design is kept as close to the ballot paper as possible. Similarly the operating mechanism is similar to the old style. A polling officer presses a button which releases a vote and then the voter presses a button. You cannot have RJ45 cables connecting to a machine / waiting for WIFI signals . As we don't have that much sophisticated voters nor polling officers. Reliablity :What do you think important for an election system ?Voting Machines .... ??Powerful Candidates .....??No , Its just Reliability on the election procedures for a common man.Please have a look at him.He is writer Sujatha Rangarajan . Prolific tamil writer . He was one among the team which actually designed the EVM.Have heard him saying in one of the interviews that , BEL had design plans for EVM which would make elections results available the same day . But it would raise doubts on its complexity . And so they have to go on with the simple design.Voting machine designer is no more..Indian Law:The idea of EVM originated within BEL to automate an internal election. And then Election Commission picked it up. Guess what was the first hurdle it hit? Indian constitution didn't permit electronic voting. So a bill had to be passed in the parliament! And was first used only on 2004 Goa Elections ..As mentioned earlier , I do accept the procedural stuff on the election day . In fact I have worked in 2011 TN State assembly elections. Its whole day process to keep the voting secured and reliable . But we have these many practical things to get settled before we think on this .Making Voting Machines online and announcing the results same day may not be big deal even Election Commissions may have enhancement plans to upgrade the machines .Its high time few have raised the question and we need to prepare people first.

Is Jiren stronger than Fused Zamasu?
This question is way harder to answer than it seems.In the left corner we have gray caped baldy…Jiren the GreySummary:For those who never watched the tournament of power, let me give y’all a run down on this guy.This man literally bodies a Kale in her Berserk Super Saiyan State, with barely using any power.He soon one shots Maji Kayo, the literary equivalent of Buu.He tanks all of Goku’s forms all the way to SSJBKKx20 and even pushes back Universe 7’s GENKI DAMA WITH NO EXTRA EFFORT.He fights a UI (Sign Goku) and holds his own no problem.Jiren also fought Hit, my favorite assassin, and Transcended Beyond TIME to eventually beat him.His meditation is hard to break.He soon fights SSJBKKX20 Goku and SSJBE Vegeta at the same time. Jiren was able to use one simple punch of his true strength and scared the literal CRAP out of Goku knocking the guy too base level.He gets a little surprised by Android 17 catching off surprise and fights Goku, Vegeta, and 17 at their absolute strongest. Jiren boi energy makes 17 self destruct, eliminate Vegeta, and almost eliminate Goku.Jiren fights UI Goku quite equally drawing more and more as the fight goes on. As they fight Goku gets very good shots on Jiren and completes Ultra Instinct (Not Mastered it). When Goku soon starts over powering Jiren, Jiren begins to tap into his true power and ends up getting alot of good hits on Goku.Even after getting his ass handed by Goku, he still has enough energy to fight Frieza, 17, and Goku with enough strength.As you can see the man is a physical abomination of power, he has done feats that his OWN GOD DAMN GOD CANNOT DEFEAT. THAT SAYS SOMETHING.Now in the right corner, the brother of Chirai himselfFUSED ZAMASU/GOKU BLACK/ZAMASUSince every person here is technically Zamasu, we shall count them as his own feats.Summary:Zamasu was the Apprentice of Gowasu, Universe 10 Supreme KaiA confused Apprentice he was, Zamasu questioned his own role in the situation and brought his own thoughts on the idea on how mortals should behave. This situation only got dire when Goku ended up fighting Zamasu and essentially overpowering him. Because of this incident is what made Zamasu a evil son of a b****.Since the timelines that happen to cooperate with each other it becomes a huge mess.But here is a quick run down:One timeline presented a Successful Zamasu the took Goku’s Body creating Goku BlackGoku Black went into another timeline and found another Zamasu and made that Zamasu immortal.3.Our Goku's timeline Zamasu was going to kill Gowasu like the other ones, however Beerus ended up erasing that one from existence.Zamasu has some nice feats:Goku Black fought equally with a Super Saiyan, a Super Saiyan 2 and Saiyan Blue in Base Form.When Transforming into SSJR(Super Saiyan Rose’), he defeated SSJB Vegeta with no problem and fought Trunks and SSJB Goku with Immortal Zamasu.This repeated again when the gang came back a second time and on the third time it seemed that they would prevail.Goku Black fights Vegeta and soon gets his ass handed to him and Immortal Zamasu soon gets sealed up into the Mafuba but escapes.Goku Black however rips a FUCKING DIMENSION WHERE MORE VERSIONS OF HIMSELF FIGHT GOKU AND VEGETA.Zamasu and Black soon fuse to become Fused Zamasu.Other than the fact Goku did some damage to Zamasu, Fused Zamasu bodied Trunks and Vegeta quite easily. And was able to somewhat manage himself against SSJB Vegito.Even after all of this he is still alive and gets cut in half from the Spirit Sword. You would think that would be it until….HE BECOMES THE UNIVERSE. This is where we see how he is unbeatable. The guy is unstoppable as not even Goku and Gang can defeat them, they are powerless.It takes Zeno the King of Everything to stop him and erase him from existence.Now to who would win.In the end, I have to give it to Zamasu. Even though he was not as strong as Jiren in his physical state, Zamasu’s Immortality helps here mainly since if Jiren destroys the Physical State of Fused Zamasu, he cannot defeat the guy who engulfs and becomes reality.

How do I prepare for accounts CBSE board exam 2017?
Crack CBSE Accountancy Exam 2017 with confidence : Do’s and Don’tsCBSE board exams are just knocking the door. CBSE is about to release exam schedule and date sheet 2017 very soon. Accountancy paper is always been a mystery and full of tricky questions. Recent changes in Indian economy and company laws are going to make it definitely hard to crack. Here is how students can prepare for class 12 CBSE Accountancy Exam 2017 with confidence.Focus on the Technical Language used in the Questions: Sometimes language of the question is very technical. It is observed in the past that question was very easy but students could not solve it because of one technical line given in that question. I advise you to read the full line carefully and try to connect it with the related concept. You should know what examiner is asking in the question. You can find such questions in ‘Ultimate Book of Accountancy’.Practice Advance Level during the Revision: Once you complete the syllabus of Accountancy you should practice advance level and worksheets of CBSE Accountancy Exam 2017 which covers all relevant facts and syllabus. It will give you confidence and will also enhance your knowledge. (High quality worksheets are given in the Ultimate Book of Accountancy).Attempting 6 or 8 Marks Questions: Make sure that all parts of the question attempted at one place. If you want to attempt a part of the question later then it is always advisable to leave some space for it so that you can attempt that part later.CBSE Rule about the Accounting Format: 25% marks of the question will be deducted by the CBSE if proper format is not drawn for journal, ledger accounts and Balance Sheet. Draw the format clearly by using scale and pencil and write all the headings clearly. It is also advisable to use new Indian rupee sign with the amounts.Try to Manage the Paper in 3 Hours: During revision time, you should solve sample papers of 3 hours. Vishvas Publications has issued 20 High Quality Sample Papers for the students. After practicing these sample papers, you will be able to manage your Board paper. Make sure that you get some time for revision also.Working Notes and Important Calculations: Do not write anything on question paper. Use one area of your answer sheet for your rough work. All important working notes, formulas and calculations should be shown as a part of the answer. Sometimes marks are divided in steps and there may be some marks for calculations and formulas also.First Thirty Minutes: Utilize first 30 minutes of the exam in doing simple and small questions (1-4 marks). Do not start with 6-8 marks questions because they may take long time.Entries Vs Accounts: Sometimes question is very simple but examiner asks for the entries and not for the accounts. In such a case, do not prepare accounts. Give all the entries with proper explanation (including the distribution of profit/loss).Balance Sheet not matching: If your balance sheet is not matching after following the entire concept in the right direction then check your question specially the balance sheet given in the question. It may be wrong or incomplete. In such a case leave the question as it is without cutting or erasing it. Also, you can write a footnote for the same.Avoid cuttings and keep focus on your presentation. Make sure that your handwriting is very clear and readable.

Jacques Derrida (philosopher): What is Differance?
(Two things I should mention off the bat. First, I'm new to Derrida, so my understanding of this concept may be somewhat entry level and, second, this will probably have led to my understanding being coloured by my own thinking; that said...)I'm going to go through two threads - first the meaning of the term 'différance' and second the importance of this term to Derrida's broader philosophical project.Différer and Différance The word 'Différance' relies on the capacities for punning in the French verb 'différer'. Used transitively - i.e. in reference to a direct object, as in 'to elect someone' - différer means 'to defer' or to postpone in time. On the other hand, différer used intransitively means 'to differ' or 'to differentiate' - Derrida refers to this as "the sense of not being identical, of being other, of being discernible".In other words, différer in French can be taken to indicate difference in either time ("Let's defer our lunch till a better time") or space ("This sandwich is different from that one"). Note that the first meaning is active - it's a decision undertaken by a subject - while the second meaning is passive, referring to a spatial relation between objects that is simply given.'Differance' (I'm dropping the accent because the term has been widely anglicised now, at least in philosophy) is a coinage that Derrida arrived at in order to take advantage of the punning capabilities of différer; the coinage is intended to imply both meanings of the verb simultaneously. This seemed to me, when I first read about it, to be an unnecessary move - since the existent verb made this pun possible in any case, why was the new word necessary? As I understand it now, this is because différer can indeed mean either term - deferral or differentiation - but only one at a time. 'Differance', by contrast, refers both to an act of deferral and an act of differentiation at one and the same time.Saussure and language as the play of differencesPerhaps now's a good time to back-track a little, I'll pick up the thread again in a sec. Derrida arrived at the concept of differance in response to the work of philosopher and linguist Ferdinand de Saussure. Saussure's theory of language characterised it as a system of differences. That is, each term within a linguistic system derives its, for want of a better word, potency from its difference from other terms within the language. This shouldn't be understood only as being a difference between terms related as positive and negative, such as 'day' and 'night', 'up' and 'down', 'full' and 'empty', but rather as differences without positive terms. That is, the word 'day' derives its significance, its potency, only via its difference from 'night', 'cat', 'mint', 'suspension', 'picked', 'hobble', 'artifice', 'shout', and so on. DifferanceSo, to return to 'differance'. According to Derrida's essay differance is the movement that produces or precedes these differences within language that Saussure describes. Perhaps the best way of showing this lies in unpacking the term 'differance' itself. This is because Derrida intended the word not only to be a signification of the concept he was trying to get across, the play of differences within language, but also an immediate enactment of that play.A brief recap. 'Differance' takes advantage of the punning capabilities of the French verb 'différer '; whereas the latter term can mean either 'deferral' (which is temporal) or 'differentiation' (which is spatial), 'differance' means both terms at once. How is this possible? Is it possible?If we take 'differance' to mean 'deferral', then this is to immediately efface its reference to 'differentiation'. This means that in taking it to refer to a postponement, a deferral, we are also and at exactly the same time differentiating this temporal meaning from the other spatial meaning of the term. In taking 'differance' to mean 'defer' we are engaging in an act of differentiation.If we take 'differance' to mean 'differentiation', then this is to immediately efface its reference to 'deferral'. This means that in referring to an act of spatial differentiation, we are also - again, at exactly the same time - deferring indefinitely the term's ability to arrive at full meaning. In taking 'differance' to mean 'differentiation' we are engaging in an act of deferral.Simply (and possibly misleadingly) put, if we take 'differance' to mean 'differentiation' this means that, so long as this state of affairs pertains, the word's ability to mean 'deferral' has itself been deferred indefinitely. If on the other hand we take it to mean 'deferral' then it has been differentiated from its other available meaning, differentiation. Thus 'differance' is a term that necessarily, in meaning anything, differs from itself. Using it in any way means becoming involved in an endless tail-chasing.So 'differance' is Derrida's word coined to describe, but also to perform, the play of differences in language that makes terms capable of meaning anything.Speech and writingNow that the concept is established it can be seen how it ties into Derrida's wider project of deconstruction. I'm going to go over this briefly since I'm new to Derrida, as said, and I reckon I'll only mangle this utterly if I try to be comprehensive.Derrida's project was basically to question the system of hierarchies that western philosophy - and particularly metaphysics - has posited since the time of Plato. In particular he wants to question the primacy of speech over writing.Writing is described in almost all philosophical systems as being secondary to speech. Whereas speech is immediate, immaterial, trustworthy, writing is distance, material, duplicitous. Derrida begins his criticism of this perceived hierarchy, of writing as an image of speech, in drawing upon a little-known essay by Jean-Jacques Rousseau, in which Rousseau describes writing as being a 'dangerous supplement' to speech. This was intended to imply writing's lack of necessity but in fact, as Derrida noted, the term 'supplement' implies two things:that, as Rousseau presumably intended, speech is complete in and of itself and, though it doesn't require writing, writing has come about as a result of speech's 'abundance'; orthat speech, in and of itself, lacks something that writing comes about in order to supply.By way of illumination, let's say a football team makes a substitution during the second half of the game. In itself this can mean one of two things - it can mean that the team is struggling to score and the substitute will hopefully redress or otherwise 'fill up' this lack. Or it can mean that the team is in such a good position, is scoring so easily and consistently, that it can afford to substitute one player for another without risking a loss. While Rousseau, by analogy, intended the latter as the case for writing, Derrida pointed out that the former meaning is also a necessary requirement of describing writing as 'supplementary'. In other words, speech isn't as fully present or immediate, trustworthy and so on, as the tradition heretofore assumed.This is deconstruction at work. Derrida looks for the assumptions or the circumlocution in a philosophical theory, which is usually present in the binary oppositions that that theory presumes, and which is revealed in marginalia. For example, a Freudian psychoanalyst would look for the slips of the tongue, the verbal tics or the jokes that are generally considered marginal to actual discourse, but which reveal the underlying worries or concerns that the discourse is, in part, intended to elide. Derrida is looking for the verbal tics, the slips of the tongue and diversionary tactics that exist in the Western philosophical tradition.Deconstruction and differanceDeconstruction shouldn't be taken as simply the inversion of the binary so that the typically inferior term - body, in contrast to soul for example - should become superior. This would just be perverse. Nor does he advocate that we discard the tradition; this would be to waste an immensely useful set of resources with no apparent gain. The term 'deconstruction' is a medieval one - it refers to the practice of taking apart a ballista or siege engine in order that it be made transportable and thus capable of being set up elsewhere in a different circumstance. In the same way Derrida seeks to take apart the engines of philosophical tradition, the hierarchies they assume, in order that they can be reconfigured to take into account those marginals cases that they sought to elide or to deny. Differance, being the preceding movement that makes linguistic terms, and hence binary oppositions, possible in the first place, is the theoretic tool by which this project is undertaken.

Why did Square launch Market? What's the strategy behind it?
The Square Market Theory:To organically grow transactions using the Square payment system.To establish a larger premise for consumers to use the Square Wallet.To encourage product sharing by way of social networks, primarily Twitter to generate traffic and sales.To expand use and the promise of the Square Item Library by offering two selling venues, retail and internet. And thereby be perceived as more valuable by the merchant.Simple Questions Can Produce Complex AnswersThere are other direct and indirect, obvious and non obvious parts to the theory of the Square Market, however the points mentioned will standout historically to play central in the thinking. I cannot address information that is not public and otherwise granted to me under confidence. I was asked to answer this question by a friend that currently works at Square, for a number of reasons. I extend my apologies for the detour I feel is needed present this properly. This is really a deceptively complex question that will take a somewhat complex answer to correctly illuminate all the issues at hand.The Tweet that launched Square.Early Square: A Spectacular Success On Many LevelsThe early Square was the example of pure focus and discipline, edited down to the raw essences of the product, the market and use cases. This editing of abstractions and distractions allowed the company to communicate a rather simple message. The first order premise for Square was brilliant and a spectacular success. The premise was to enable and empower micro-merchants to accept payment cards using a smartphone with simple fixed rate pricing. The primary barriers were an inexpensive method to read the payment card’s magnetic strip and the proper relationship with a bank, Visa and MasterCard to allow this activity. The low cost of the original Square Card Reader was critical for wide adoption to low use micro-merchants. However the proper relationships with a bank, Visa and MasterCard was many orders of magnitude more important. Square ultimately created a relationship with Chase/Paymentech and went about lobbying for a new use of the PayPal aggregator model for retail merchants rather then web based merchants. There were a number of other rather important challenges that Square faced and managed quite well.The Micro-Merchant Market Is Huge, Over 25 Million MerchantsOnce a great product is created getting everyone to know about it is the largest challenge, Square was fortunate to have the “Jack Dorsey Effect", a great product and some of the best talent in the Silicon Valley [1]. As the low hanging fruit on the tree, the easy to signNow early customers, begin to be saturated (late 2012) the next phase of growth becomes much more costly and rather difficult and many other systems need to be in place to continue the incredible growth required to sustain the current business model.Square has had robust growth since the launch in late 2010. Three years later they went from 0 to 2 million merchants and $0 to about $10 billion dollars in projected annual 2013 Payment Card transaction processing. This is truly phenomenal growth and no matter how you view it, this is an amazing thing. To understand the market size and challenges moving forward from this point in 2013 we need to look deeper in to the Square Market potential. As it stands today, Square has less then 2% of the total payment card volume. Square has achieved 2% of total payment card transaction volume thus far.A vast majority of these merchants are micro-merchants [2]. Square has really defined this sector of retail merchants and it represents a potential of 25 million merchants of which Square current has an approximate marketshare of 2 million thus far.Square has achieved about 2% of the potential micro-merchant market share. They have the largest share of this market segment.Most Micro-Merchants Sell Food, Beverages And ServicesIt is clear that a vast majority of the transaction volume from micro-merchants using Square are in food or service type businesses with no actual products sold. Although Square does not publicly disclose this information this is clear by a number of research studies I conducted since 2011 that this is the case. To be conservative I think one can safely conclude that about 60% of the dollar volume Square processes in payment cards comes from businesses that sell food or service type businesses or do not sell a tangible product, this can be confirmed to some degree by data publicly supplied by Square in the amazing graphic below [3]. A slice of time showing the range of merchant types using Square. The size of the circles correlates to transaction volumes.The Two Squares: And The Dream Of A Closed EcosystemWe have established a number of points here thus far, Square primarily is used by micro-merchants that primarily sell services, food or non tangibles in retail settings where the merchant sees the customer. We have established that Square grew spectacularly well thus far but the cost to acquire new merchants has sharply risen. We can also establish that Square had few equal competitors for the early growth but today has about half a dozen equal and aggressive competitors. To distinguish the Square product in what was expected to be an aggressively competitive market, Square developed Tabs, the Square Card Case, Pay With Your Name, Pay With Square and finally the Square Wallet. These are all essentially the same product going through iterations that sadly confused both merchants and consumers. In theory, the concept was to grow both sides of the transaction in hopes to create a closed ecosystem by creating a wallet system to allow consumers to say their name, and mercifully have a useful picture that will allow the merchant to consummate the transaction without the card present. The New SquareSquare spent a great deal of time, money and amazing talent on what is now the Square Wallet, some argue over 65% of the company’s resources where committed to this project. The results have been lackluster at best. The dream to have a closed ecosystem is quite logical on the surface, but a good reading of history and human behavior would have informed founders and executives that lackluster results could have been predicted. This created essentially two Squares:The Square that processes payments for micro-merchants. As mentioned this has been wildly successful.The Square that built a wallet app to create a closed ecosystem. After about 15 months there are few consumers using the system [4].Although the Square wallet produced a great deal of media excitement and attention, it also produced expectations that where far too high. This was a risky bet placed by Square to try to gain wide exposure and acceptance of the Square Wallet concept. However if the "hype factor" produced in the media, especially on general interest shows and news interviews does not meet up with the actual experiences of users a rather negative force develops. An example of this can be seen from the brilliant Reuters technology reporter, Felix Salmon [5]:“Actually, mobile payments are harder than paying with plastic, at least in my experience: the coffee shop I’ve started frequenting near the Reuters office uses Square, which makes paying with a credit card very easy. More to the point, despite the fact that I’ve tried a couple of times, I have yet to get Square Wallet to actually work there. And in general, whenever I try to pay for something using the Square Wallet or some other clever newfangled mobile payment technique, I feel curiously self-conscious and embarrassed about the whole thing. Handing over a card is normal behavior: mobile payments are not. And there’s really no incentive for me to switch.” Square has tried to gain wider acceptance of the Square Wallet by integrating the features of the phenomenally successful Starbucks wallet, namely the QR code system but a vast majority of Starbucks customers see no reason to replace the Starbucks wallet.You Don’t Get Another Chance When A Consumer App DisappointsThe early disappointments of user experiences spans a wide area from a lack of viable merchants using the system, to dozens of local merchants listed that make no sense to be listed in a wallet app (eg. a plumber, chimney sweepers, etc) and operator/merchant confusion and errors. You really don't get another chance when a consumer app disappoints and does not meet up to expectations.There was also that history thing, the history of failed wallet applications that span back two decades, many far simpler then the Square Wallet like Pay By Touch [6], no app, no smartphone needed, you pay with your finger, most of us do not leave home without our fingers, it just worked. But the multi billion dollar company failed in a spectacular fashion seven years later. I can write a rather large book on why these wallets have thus far failed, there is no simple answer.Squareup.com spanning last 12 months with the last image produced in August, 2013. Square has completely eliminated the Square Wallet icon from the front page.A Second Point Of Sale For Retail Merchants: Square Market Thus we have Square at a very critical juncture. The company placed a huge bet on the Square Wallet yet the lackluster results created a fork in the road. Square needed another idea to help create a closed ecosystem this time it would be applied to the merchant side and maybe at the same time silently enroll consumers into the Square Wallet. Surprisingly just a small percentage of the two million micro-merchants sell a physical product that can be sold on the Internet and thus on the outset, Square will have just a few thousand merchants to motivate to participate in the Square Market. The idea is once again quite logical, in theory the merchant already loaded inventory into the Square items list, why not repurpose this for online sales? Let's examine the premise: Retail merchants somehow lack a venue to sell their retail products on the Internet and Square will make it simpler.First off there are over 50,000 marketplaces on the Internet. The two largest are Amazon and eBay with Etsy also in the top ten for micro-merchants. Lets forget about the other thousands of options and focus on these three venues. None of them are broken, and moreover they are all growing wildly. They all make it elementary to present products from micro-merchants. To be clear Square Market is really well designed and easy to use. From a technology standpoint it is a really great product.Square clearly trying to present the Square Market as a first stop to sell online and interestingly not an extension of a new venue for a retail merchant.There is conflict in the marketing of the Square Market. Is it a first stop for an online merchant or a second stop for a Square retail merchant? The question remains, does a retail merchant by default want to be an Internet merchant? Do they want or need this second point of sale? At best the answer is maybe. What are the barriers? A selling venue? A simple Google search will erase this barrier. Then what are the barriers? There are actually quite a few, however the Square Market does not address them in any way, in fact may create more problems for retail merchants.The Exposure ProblemI will illustrate the huge challenges Square Market faces by presenting the Amazon Marketplace [7] and how it goes about solving the real problems retail merchants face selling on the Internet. The Amazon Marketplace allows for any size merchant to sell just about any product, even if Amazon itself already has the item listed. This brilliant product grants the smallest merchant phenomenal power, allowing exposure of the product to the largest group of buying consumers to be found on the Internet. Lets call this the Exposure problem. The Fulfillment ProblemThe next real problem is inventory. If successful in selling on the Internet, retail merchants need space to hold the new inventory and shipping materials. Amazon solves this issue with Fulfillment By Amazon [8]. With Fulfillment By Amazon the merchant would for example send 20 custom hand made iPad cases to Amazon and the company would inventory, list, sell, package, label, ship, track, and bill for the merchant. In many case Amazon will ship this for $0 cost. The merchant just continues to operate the retail business, worries not of the Internet sales and collects regular payments by Amazon. Lets call this the Fulfillment problem.To be sure Amazon charges for services rendered between 6% and 15% in most cases along with a 99¢ per item sold fee. Amazon Marketplace offers retail merchants:Very High ExposureInventory ManagementShipping RelationshipsShipping PackagingShipping labeling Low To $0 Shipping CostsCustomer ServicePayments Square Market offers retail merchants:Limited ExposureEasy Repurposing Of Item Lists, On The InternetPayments Some Retail Merchants: Not Selling On The Internet, On Purpose A vast majority of retail merchants that do not already have a selling venue on the Internet may very well have concluded that the cost to get exposure and the cost to fulfill orders may not be worth the time and effort and distracts them from there primary business. I do not come about this by guessing, this is in fact the case as I have discovered empirically over the last ten years. Amazon, eBay And Etsy Are Not Broken, They Just Work- WonderfullyThere is no doubt that Square Market will cost less then Amazon Marketplace. However, Amazon performs far more functions. It is not trivial for busy small retail merchants to close their businesses and to pack up and go to Staples to buy shipping boxes, correctly pack these boxes, print out labels and then drive to the Post Office for the random Internet sale. How much is this worth? Millions of small merchants say it is worth the additional cost to have Amazon do this work, perhaps better than they could.There is no doubt that the Amazon shopping cart experience is not he most beautiful experience. However the world has voted with their wallets and pronounced Amazon to be the success that it is. The Online Indie BoutiqueAnd there is always the very successful and quite beautiful Etsy platform for the merchant that wants a smaller boutique selling experience that has a huge market signNow in some product types. The Etsy platform offers merchants a far more rich set of tools. It also offers the highest customer traffic for boutique shoppers.Square missed the real reason we all go to Etsy, it’s all about the artists and artisans, not just the product. In the images below, one can see many reasons why Etsy is so successful but one profoundly important element is the artist and artisan is weaved into each selling page. With Square Market it is missing, replaced with empty open spaces and an almost generic presentation of a single product. The Square Market is not an improvement in any way over the Etsy experience.Same product Square Market vs. Etsy. Clearly Etsy has a more mature and rich approach. Note the many viewing options of the product along with serendipitous display of similar products from the store owner.Does It Do It Better?In the face of these realities, it is really quite fascinating that Square feels strongly enough that they can compete with Amazon, eBay and Etsy. It is interesting that the Exposure Problem and the Fulfillment Problem were not addressed before the launch of the Square Market. Without the tremendously large volume of potential customers that Amazon, eBay and Etsy produce, Square Market is not solving the Exposure problem. In addition without inventory, packaging, labeling, shipping, tracking, and customer service, Square is not solving the Fulfillment problem.Is It In The Cards, Twitter Cards?There is no doubt that Square is betting on the premise that easy integration with Twitter Cards [9] a method that allows third-party developers to make tweets more structured and uniform across all platforms and allows inserting things like photos or video inside the tweets themselves. A part of this integration is the Twitter’s Product Card [10]. Square allows the merchant an easy way to tweet out a link to one of their items for sale in the Square Market, and that tweet will look much fancier in the Product template. The user then click through the tweet back to the merchant’s site on Square’s website.Specimen of a Twitter Product Card. This is not new and just about every commerce site either has this ability or will soon. Etsy has had this feature for some time. However one can safely conclude that this does not really solve the Exposure problem in any meaningful way. Since its inception people have had grand dreams of Twitter commerce and thus far it has not produced a satisfying product discovery experience for consumers. In fact this very deficit created Pintrest. Pintrest understands this in is building it's own commerce platform.Abstractions And Distractions And The Missing EditorBy their very nature startups must find ways to expand growth and unearth revenue. And at the same time there needs to be an artist's eye to editing abstractions and distractions that can very well be fatal to long term success of the company (I am guilty of not editing myself, this posting is a good example). The most successful startups had this constrained discipline. By laser focusing on real problems a startup can have the highest chance not to miss the real opportunities. So why does this ultimately matter? Square took a great deal of time, brilliant talent and lots of investor capital to build the Square Wallet and now the Square Market. History will show that these abstractions and distractions dulled what was a highly focused editor’s eye on the true markets and true mission. One example was to completely miss the first mover advantage in the international market for the primary Square product, the Card Reader. When Square finally enters these markets in a serious way, they would have been nearly three years too late. This delay caused a number of very well financed and formidable local competitors. This delay allowed PayPal to methodically enter these markets with much higher name recognition. The combined effect of local competitors and PayPal in these international markets has greatly injured Square’s ability to continue the pattern of spectacular growth.History Informs The Law Of Gravity Of Business ProductsOne way to help in the editing process is to have a wide and firm grasp of history. In the case of Square they entered in to an industry, merchants selling things, that is perhaps 8000 years old, but most recently has been changed by the plastic payment card. They are in an industry, retail payments, that is really not "broken", the payment card, just works. Thus it is immensely important to work with people that empirically understand the merchant, people that have actually spent decades with merchants and perhaps (gasp) sold useful solutions to these merchants. Sadly history and empirical non-technical experience is not considered to be useful in the Silicon Valley. Ironically history will show that this disconnect from reality, when marketing business products and/or business services will have cause countless products, services and ultimately companies to fail. Understanding the deep history of an industry allows one to understand the law of gravity that operates in general and in particular for business products. Even Great Companies Can Make Great MistakesTo be clear Square is certainly not the only company to make these type of mistakes and will certainly not be the last. I have a particular love for the company, the original mission and the really talented people that have created an amazing product. I was informed of the plan of the Square Market a number of months ago by people that work at the company and later some merchants that participated in the launch of the product. I vigorously tried to offer insight on why this was a distraction. When it was finally announced, I had to be be honest about the problems they faced [11]. This posting is not presented to break anyone’s sprit, in fact, I present it to raise the sprit of the amazing people that have built this company and to point out that there are ways to find the right path again. Endless OpportunitiesThe Square Market would have been a great idea in 1999 and perhaps in 2008, but in 2013 it really does not address nor solve the problems that retail merchants face trying to sell products on the Internet. Square has a rich and wide opportunity to solve real problems and real issues retail merchants face, I have identified over 30 issues that Square could solve today. The Square Market and the Square Wallet are solutions for problems that clearly these merchants do not have. Solve the real problems these merchants face and the opportunities and true growth are endless. _____[1] Brian Roemmele's answer to How is Square signing up new merchants without a big field sales force?[2] Brian Roemmele's answer to What types of merchants have adopted Square in the greatest numbers?[3] Brian Roemmele's answer to What is the distribution of Square merchants in the US?[4] TechCrunch Disrupt: Watch It Live! | TechCrunch[5] Why mobile payments will never take off[6] Pay By Touch[7] Amazon.com Help [8] Amazon.com Help: Fulfillment by Amazon [9] Get more from 140 characters[10] Product Card | Twitter Developers[11] Unfocused And A Distraction: The Square Market. by Brian Roemmele on Accepting Payment Cards

Why aren't we satisfied with our simple lives?
Man is alive here through needs not wants - until recalled.Mankind is the most supreme being among all creations.Every other creation is a gift to mankind for his service directly or indirectly. They are serving us since many generations, standing as truthful by not changing their true nature, how God has commanded.A mango tree will never offer an orange by it self.Sign of God's wisdom for those who pay heed.What God originaly created with all perfection for us was and is 'perfect'. Nothing was required from man's side except to praise Almighty. Drink and Eat from his provisions .No degrees, no research, not an inch of stress. Sounds unusual ?There was everything for every body and in proportion, to fulfill needs.When man started to use his own (ideas) brain to change the law of nature is where all the problems started.'Wisdom started to fade away with the eraser of his own knowledge'.Man is born with a quality to develop in specific term. Morailty is the proof, where he is supposed to.From among all creations only man is trying to change with time and this curiosity of his has made this system complex in many ways.Hence contentment from simple ideas has been overshadowed by anxiety or ambitions of unfulfilled race of goals....A race to catch up with future, missing out the present.Peace.

What is the significance of the double-slit experiment?
The double-slit experiment displays one counter-intuitive aspect of quantum mechanics in a very clean manner: the fact that quantum entities behave both like waves and particles. Its significance is in showing that standard quantum mechanics makes the correct predictions, even when they conflict so openly with intuition.Unfortunately, presentations of the double slit experiment often mix up three very different things:What is observed in an experiment that has actually been performedWhat standard QM says will happen in some idealised version (a “thought” experiment)What some interpretation of standard QM says is happening in either a real or “thought” experimentIn the early days of QM, there was a lot of mixing of points 1 and 2, with Einstein, Feynman and others discussing single-particle experiments, though no-one had managed to perform such experiments at the time.However, now that experimental techniques have caught up, this confusion is less of a worry. We have tried many, many versions of the most counter-intuitive set-ups, and standard QM has checked out. The gap between 1 and 2 has become much smaller.But at the same time, the gap between between points 2 and 3 has got wider, as popularisations have become less and less careful. Assertions like: “This interference shows the particle goes through both slits” are signs that someone is bringing their own interpretation into the mix. And this is a mistake.Here, I am going to (try to) be careful to distinguish these things. And I am going to use what (I think) is the cleanest version: the single-particle double-slit experiment. And I am going to describe a version that has been done.The experiment:Set up a source of some quantum particle that you can prepare in a reproducible quantum state (we’ll use electrons). And make sure that we can “turn down” this source to the extent that there is a vanishingly small probability of more than one being produced at a time. Then we need some way of detecting these particles even when only one arrives at a time (we’ll use a phosphorescent screen).In fact, before doing anything else, we can test what happens when we start firing a few electrons straight at the screen (no double slits, just a source and a screen). What do we see? Something like this.That is, you get one electron at a time, each hitting the screen at a spot. They are localised (and this localisation does not depend on your detector: you can detect them with a phosphorescent screen, a small detector, a photo-multiplier, or whatever else). One electron comes through at a time, and is appears in one place, and one place alone.Run the electrons for a little time, let these dots build up a bit, and you get something like this:More intense towards the middle of the slit, less at the sides. But this still looks pretty particle-y.OK, enough prep work. Now for the real experiment.We set up a solid screen between the electron source and the phosporescent screen, with two holes in it, of a width small enough to meaningfully diffract a wave with the de Broglie wavelength of the particle we’re using (For example, with electrons of [math]600 \text{ eV}[/math], [math]\lambda = 50 \text{ pm}[/math], which means using widths of the order of [math]50[/math][math]\text{ nm}[/math]).What do we see now?Here’s the picture as each electron goes through, and how it builds up over time:At first just one spot:Then a couple more:Let it run a bit further, and … is … a pattern emerging?Yes, there are bands where electrons are landing more and more!Interference bands!OK. That’s all on the experiment itself. Nothing else happens in the core version. (It is true that there are many other variants, which are interesting in their own right — quantum eraser and delayed choice variants are particularly fun — but this is the core.)Standard quantum mechanics:Standard quantum mechanics, in its bare formalism (as laid out, for example in von Neumann’s 1932 Mathematical Foundations of Quantum Mechanics) predicts precisely the results we have just seen. The rules are clear: in the formalism, each electron is represented by a wavefunction, or equivalently, a ray in Hilbert space. It is then straightforward (if slightly tedious) to work forward how the wavefunction will interact with the double slits (e.g., by modelling the screen as an infinitely high potential barrier, with the slits the only gaps). And when you look at the mathematics you can see that the wavefunction representing each individual electron is affected by both slitsThen you ask what will be detected at the screen, and rules of QM remain very simple. You take your electron wavefunction, and apply the operator representing a position measurement. The Born Rule tells you to calculate the squared amplitude of the eigenvalue associated with each position eigenvector to give a probability of finding it at each spatial point, and that that squared value will give you the probability of finding it at that point.In other words, standard QM tells you that each time you measure the position of a single electron you will find a single electron in one place, and one place only, and that place is given by a probability, the value of which is given by the Born Rule.When you map this amplitude-squared function, it looks something like this…… where brightness represents the amplitude. And this is the pattern you get experimentally if you let the “dots” above build up for long enough. That is, you see exactly what the formalism predicts: a few spots gradually building up to a closer and closer approximation to the distribution: and this is what a probability distribution and the law of large numbers should be giving you.Again, there’s nothing more to see here. The standard formalism tells you nothing about the electron’s path between the source and the screen. It says nothing about how many slits the electron “goes through”. It just says that’s what you’ll measure. And it is in perfect accordance with the experiment.Interpretation (or, what does this mean is really going on?):Holy moly, there are a lot of these…So, let’s just stick with three broad remarks:First, it is clear that these phenomena cannot easily be explained either by an interpretation that treats electrons purely as waves, nor by one that treats them purely as particles.An electron — however you choose to measure its position — is always found to be localised in one place. And since “being strictly localised” is almost the definition of a particle, this is hard to escape. But a wave aspect also looks indispensable. For we have set things up to send only one electron through the apparatus at a time. And yet the pattern that builds up shows interference fringes - so the electron is showing evidence of “knowing” about both slits. It is difficult to see how this can happen if it had stayed localised throughout its path. Juggling these two aspects goes by the rather grandiose name of “wave-particle duality”.Second point, despite this difficulty, the space of interpretations is really crowded. In fact, more or less whatever you want to say at this point, there is likely to be an existing interpretation for you:Do you want to say that these results are evidence that electrons must be formed of both a wave and a particle? (Come right this way for the de Broglie/Bohm interpretation!)Do you want to say that the electron is clearly a wave throughout, but there must be a physical process that forces it into a localised position when it hits the screen? (Spontaneous Collapse/GRW theories may be for you!)Do you not want to say anything at all, and just look at the relation between the formalism and experimental results? (Congratulations, you may be ready for a “shut up and calculate” career in physics.)… and so on.And one final point. As presented in the double slit and similar experiments, “measurement” can look like an odd and semi-mystical process. It isn’t. Measurement apparatus (such as phosphorescent screens) are physical objects, and as such, they can also be modelled with the laws of quantum mechanics. Choosing to do this, and treating the interaction between the screen and the electron as a purely quantum process, rather than as a measurement, changes the predicted results not one jot. That is, moving the “von Neumann cut” between the quantum and the classical makes no difference to any experimental results.In any case, this is the significance of the double-slit experiment. It brings out one clear way in which quantum mechanical entities differ from classical ones, and puts it out in the open, in a way that is very difficult to ignore.
