Some third parties have complained to DOJ that the transaction could have exactly that effect.īut even if the CMA is considering calling in the merger-the authority’s jurisdictional reach is notorious-the merging parties’ relatively limited presence in the UK make establishing a viable theory of foreclosure harm all the more challenging. That theory of harm has drawn scrutiny from DOJ, where agency staff attorneys in the days leading up to the February 16 second request evaluated the merging parties’ respective market positions, and whether the deal would give Salesforce the ability and incentive to degrade competitors’ integrations with Slack in order to benefit its own market-leading CRM suite. Those market shares could mean that the deal would create less risk of post-merger foreclosure in the UK than it might in the U.S. ![]() There, the authority estimated that Salesforce commanded just a 10-20% share of supply in UK’s CRM market-less than its 20-30% share on a worldwide basis. The CMA recognized that dynamic in a 2019 decision approving Salesforce’s acquisition of Tableau Software. Salesforce, meanwhile, also controls a relatively small share of the UK CRM software market. In attempting to assuage the authority’s potential concerns, Salesforce can argue Slack has only a minor presence in the UK, deriving most of its revenue across the pond. ![]() The CMA is viewed as much more aggressive than its continental and U.S. ![]() Successfully bypassing a CMA investigation would be a further boon for Salesforce after the company earlier this week secured quick-fire competition clearances in Germany and Austria for the Slack tie-up. The San Francisco-based customer relationship management (CRM) company is said to have engaged closely with the CMA and told the UK watchdog that it shouldn’t review the deal because it doesn’t meet the test for establishing the enforcer’s jurisdiction, and even if it did, there’s no reason to suspect the merger would harm competition.

The software is said to give students, educators, and CAD professionals a better way to create, edit, and share DWG files. DraftSight is a free, professional-grade 2D CAD program currently in public beta and available for download at. Consider, for example, the new DraftSight application from Dassault Systèmes, which also includes widely used engineering software such as SolidWorks, Catia, Enovia, Simulia, and 3Dvia. If you cloud-ize your drawing storage you can Acad edit your drawings anywhere any time.Desktop-engineering applications increasingly have their own online social-networking communities. It runs on web-browser tech and so can even run on the likes of a cellphone. It simply "phone's home" to check out 'one user'. This makes all the cheap packages considerably more expensive than Autocad itself.Īutocad's single license runs on anything you have anywhere you have it. This means I have to buy two seats to do my normal one-individual CAD. This is completely incompatible with the premise of working on my office computer OR my home laptop. (*) All other CAD packages seem to require you run "server" software to share the license on other hardware and uselessly the computers must all share the same network. I can probably rationalize that over $180 for, say, NanoCad with it's horrid licensing limits(*). "Summer sale", whatever the hell that means, is $800 for a 3 year term. Now I'm faced with contemplating a subscription to ACAD LT. Geez what a difference! I haven't used Autocad in about 8 years and I was instantly back on track getting the job done in about a third of the time and with NO frustration. In a fit of frustration with some of Draftsight's own idiocy I downloaded the trial form of ACAD Lite. Kcress - RE: Draftsight 2019 - no longer Free itsmoked (Electrical) 21 Jul 19 03:30 What the hell's wrong with them? How hard is it to keep track of how many copies of a license are running on the planet? NanoCAD does offer floating licences except they demand the floaters be on the same network. So that would mean I'd have to buy 2 copies even though only one would ever be running at a time. I work on drawings at home and at the office and they're allowing only one CPU period. I'd probably go with DraftSight except their licensing sucks for me. (Free for hobbyists or companies doing less than x$ business.) It's also twice the price of DraftSight.Īs for DraftSight ransoming our drawings, is that really true? Can't we store them on our hardware and access them with any DFX or DWG tool? This is not like Fusion360 where you really are ransomed except they have a really generous licencing agreement. I hope nanoCAD doesn't pull the same trick on us. Kcress - RE: Draftsight 2019 - no longer Free SBaugh (Mechanical) I'm glad to hear there are some alternatives. It would appear and in the time it took to read the file name it would vaporize it and my antiV would pop up a window to inform me of a 'save'. Hilariously my anti virus program found and nixed the keycracker every time it opened. I thought about using a cracked version to keep the files on MY computer instead of their cloud. So today the same thing 'you must activate (again!)' but with that nasty in- red you shall bend over after December. Really aggravating, especially since the activation process was broken about half the time. I've always cursed the Dassault idiots because on two computers at least one would be whining about needing to be "activated" every rare time I opened it. I use DraftSight about 10 times a year to cobble up a cnc router part or a field wiring diagram. ![]() ![]() On our papyrus, we see a green called malachite, a mineral pigment composed of copper carbonate. The presence of Egyptian blue in our vignettes is indicated by recent analysis with x-ray fluorescence (see future blog post for more information on analysis). It was often thickly applied and coarsely ground, visible under magnification, due to the fact that it appears paler the more it is ground. This crystalline material is then ground into a pigment and is often referred to as blue “frit”. In addition to naturally-occurring pigments, the ancient Egyptians are credited with making the first artificially made pigment, Egyptian Blue.ĭetail and photomicrograph of Egyptian blue pigment, 2.7X magnificationĮgyptian blue is a glass-like pigment which was made by heating together quartz sand, copper, calcium oxide, and an alkali such as natron, which was found naturally in the waters of Egypt. It is interesting to see that the vignettes are often painted in one color within an outlined area, rather than layered to create highlights or shading. The basic palette used to paint the vignettes, or illustrations, comprised a range of pigments either mined from the earth or extracted from minerals, including blue, green, black, white, red and yellow.

These brushes looked somewhat like brushes today and allowed the scribe to vary the thickness of the line. The ancient Egyptians used reed brushes to write the text. In our Book of the Dead pictured above, they denote the beginning of spells. The red was often used for rubrics such as titles and headings to distinguish them from the rest of the text. Like most pigments used in ancient Egypt it is made from a naturally-occurring mineral, rather than an organic material derived from living sources such as plants. This ink is very stable, does not fade, and does not deteriorate the papyrus below as some metallic inks can do.Īnother predominant color seen on the papyrus is red, derived from the earth pigment iron oxide. As well as keeping the carbon particles suspended in the water solution, the gum binder helps to keep the ink adhered to the papyrus surface. ![]() As a valuable source of timber in Egypt, its branches may have also been used as the source for the charcoal. To keep the particles from clumping together, the black is mixed with a binder, probably a plant gum from the Acacia tree family. The ink is made by burning organic materials such as wood or oil, and then pulverizing the material before mixing it with water.

Eliminating waste creates a process of improvement and correspondingly lowers costs. Anything that is unproductive and does not add value to a project should be eliminated, called the process of elimination of waste. Waste refers to all unproductive processes, tools, employees and so on. Zero defects theory ensures that there is no waste existing in a project.

Sensitivity across all validity indicators was low in this research sample, though cutoff scores were congruent with previous research. Conclusions: Digit Span ACSS was the strongest predictor of noncredible performance, and outperformed traditional RDS variants. Vocabulary minus Digit Span measures were not significant. Overall, cutoff scores were consistent with other studies, but sensitivities were lower. Of RDS measures, the Working Memory RDS resulted in the highest AUC (.629), but Enhanced RDS and Alternate RDS produced the highest sensitivities (0.22). Results: Digit Span age-corrected scaled score (ACSS) had the highest AUC (.648) of all measures assessed however, sensitivity at the best cutoff of <7 was only 0.17. There are too many variables to cite only one reason for low Digit Span (or any other test on the WISC or WAIS). Diagnostic accuracy was calculated predicting group status across cutoff scores on two Digit Span variables, four Reliable Digit Span (RDS) variables, and two Vocabulary minus Digit Span variables. Of the total sample ( N = 275), 21.09% failed the MSVT and/or b Test. WAIS digit span tops out at 9 forward and 8 backwards IIRC, however there are two trials per item (meaning that to max, one has to successfully complete 6 digit sequences per digit length, with two being forward, two being reverse, and. The Noncredible group included individuals who failed either the MSVT or the b Test. Very high, I think 99 percentile/ 145+ IQ at least, if it got tested the same way like it would in the WAIS. Method: Neurologically-intact veterans completed structured diagnostic interviews, the WAIS-IV, the Medical Symptom Validity Test (MSVT), and the b Test as part of a larger study. This study evaluated Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, 4th edition (WAIS-IV) Digit Span validity indicators in post-deployment veterans. It was recommended among others that science teachers should vary concentration spans of science students by inherently mimicking the same kind of cognitive gear shift in the activities that require creative problem-solving skills and thinking, Also interventions and accommodation need be designed by school administrators to help science teachers differentiate instruction with explanations on how techniques or strategies can address students with working memory difficulty and attention deficits in the classroom.Objective: Embedded validity measures are useful in neuropsychological evaluations but should be updated with new test versions and validated across various samples. There exist no significant relationship between measure of working memory, attention span and the combination of working memory and attention span of students.
