The experiment drove enough interest that Rhinehart decided to do a pivot, and change his YC-backed startup from working on wireless networking to making Soylent full-time.
Participants in a repeated-measures experiment drove a train at nine different speeds in a state-of-the-art high-speed train simulator.
Valve's success with this experiment drove it to make further forays into gaming infrastructure, leading to the creation of Steam — now, of course, the world's leading PC gaming platform.
The experiment drives a plasma jet (the "accretion stream") into a solid block (the "stellar surface"), in the presence of a parallel magnetic field analogous to the star's local field.
But it is a thought-experiment driven above all by emotion.
The notion of exploratory experimentation was introduced to describe experiments driven by the desire to obtain empirical regularities and to develop concepts and classifications in which these regularities can be described (Steinle 1997, 2002; Burian 1997; Waters 2007)).
Here we tackle this multiple-condition scenario, where the reconstructed subnetwork should explain in a coherent manner multiple experiments driven by the same set of proteins (referred to here as anchor proteins) while producing different sets of affected proteins, or terminals.
Actually, it is surprising to note that in SELEX experiments driven in different independent laboratories using different protocols, aptamers selected to bind arginine are predominantly composed of the modern arginine codons, 63 which is reminiscent of the stereochemical hypothesis by Woese et al. 64 and extended by Yarus.
Many biological experiments drive a cellular system into an informative out-of-equilibrium state (e.g. heat shock, osmotic shock, chemical stimulus), and then glean information from the patterns of return to equilibrium in the absence of an input.
Though mild in tone, the slim book delivers deep insights into how observation and experiment drive theory.
