Insider

An insider is a member of any group of people of limited number and generally restricted access. The term is used in the context of secret, privileged, hidden or otherwise esoteric information or knowledge: an insider is a "member of the gang" hence knows things outsiders don't, including insider jargon.

In our complicated and information-rich world, the concept of insider knowledge is popular and pervasive, as a source of direct and useful guidance. In a given situation, an insider is contrasted with an outside expert: the expert can provide an in-depth theoretical analysis that should lead to a practical opinion, while an insider has firsthand, material knowledge. Insider information may be thought of as more accurate and valuable than expert opinion.

Roles

There are many popular cultural roles ascribed to the insider.

In criminal and social justice, whistle-blowing and leaks are seen as (often heroic) efforts of individual insiders to right wrongs by making secret information public, usually in David and Goliath situations (e.g. by revealing transgressions of governments, large corporations or other powerful organizations). When whistle-blowers are cultivated by outside forces, they are known as informants and informers.

Tune (stylized as TUNE) is a mobile platform company based in Seattle, Washington. It was previously named HasOffers, changing its name in 2014. The company produces two lines of SaaS: Tune Marketing Console and HasOffers.

Company History

The company was initially founded as HasOffers in 2009 by twin brothers Lucas and Lee Brown. The twins bootstrapped the company, using their own finances to found the firm. The company’s CEO is Peter Hamilton, who was promoted to the position in 2012. By 2011 the company was measuring $300 million in partner payouts. In 2013 it received $9.4 million in funding from Accel. Then, in 2014 it changed its name to Tune, the name coming from the idea of helping customers better “tune” their marketing campaigns. By the end of 2014 the company had $40 million in revenues. That year they also acquired two more private companies, without releasing their names. In 2015 the company received $27 million in series B funding, from Icon Ventures. The company is headquartered in Seattle, and has offices in San Francisco, New York City, London, Dallas, Tel Aviv, Seoul, and Berlin. In February 2014, HasOffers and Mobile App Tracking were removed as a Facebook Mobile Measurement Partner for violating Facebook's device-level sharing policy. In 2015, Tune acquired Artisan Mobile, a Philadelphia-based start-up that app developers use to track their projects.

Basic (dance move)

The basic step, basic movement, basic pattern, or simply basic is the dance move that defines the character of a particular dance. It sets the rhythm of the dance; it is the default move to which a dancer returns, when not performing any other moves. For some dances it is sufficient to know the basic step performed in different handholds and dance positions to enjoy it socially.

Most traditional partner dances have only one basic step which can be easily mastered. Others, such as West Coast Swing, have multiple basic steps, any of which can theoretically be selected by the leader.
