Let's assume your customers requirements are 25 PPM. That means that you would be allowed 25 pieces for every 1,000,000 pieces or 250 defective parts per year. Or to put it another way, one bad part per day! Notice I did not say one bad part per day per person or job, or shift or machine.
The dynamic inheritance allows you to follow open-closed principle by extending classes without modifying existing classes and allows you to choose features that you need at runtime. Of course, dynamic languages such as Ruby make this a lot easier as you can extend classes or objects with modules at runtime, e.g.
We used to think that a new embryo's epigenome was completely erased and rebuilt from scratch. But this isn't completely true. Some epigenetic tags remain in place as genetic information passes from generation to generation, a process called epigenetic inheritance. Epigenetic inheritance is an unconventional finding. It goes against the idea that inheritance happens only through the DNA code that passes from parent to offspring. It means that a parent's experiences, in the form of epigenetic tags, can be passed down to future generations. As unconventional as it may be, there is little doubt that epigenetic inheritance is real. In fact, it explains some strange patterns of inheritance geneticists have been puzzling over for decades.
