A sample UML class and sequence diagram for the observer design pattern. [6] In this UML class diagram, the Subject class does not update the state of dependent objects directly. Instead, Subject refers to the Observer interface (update()) for updating state, which makes the Subject independent of how the state of dependent objects is updated.
In the field of sociolinguistics, the term Observer’s Paradox was coined by William Labov, who stated with regard to the term: . The aim of linguistic research in the community must be to find out how people talk when they are not being systematically observed; yet we can only obtain this data by systematic observation.
In physics, the observer effect is the disturbance of an observed system by the act of observation. [1] [2] This is often the result of utilising instruments that, by necessity, alter the state of what they measure in some manner. A common example is checking the pressure in an automobile tire, which causes some of the air to escape, thereby ...

A joke can be reused in different joke cycles; an example of this is the same Head & Shoulders joke refitted to the tragedies of Vic Morrow, Admiral Mountbatten and the crew of the Challenger space shuttle. [note 4] [47] These cycles seem to appear spontaneously, spread rapidly across countries and borders only to dissipate after some time ...
Chances are, one of the first jokes you ever learned started with the world's most famous opening setup: "Knock Knock." And while knock-knock jokes have engrained themselves in the American ...

As an example Raskin uses the following joke: "Is the doctor at home?" the patient asked in his bronchial whisper.
A sample UML class and sequence diagram for the Observer design pattern. In the above UML class diagram , the Subject class doesn't update the state of Observer1 and Observer2 directly. Instead, Subject refers to the Observer interface for updating (synchronizing) state ( for each o in observers: o.update() ), which makes the Subject ...
