I think you're being too picky in the interest of talking down to people.
Actually, I think the people that are "talking down to people" are those that give incorrect explanations of things because they think they're simpler. Pointing out the problem with the molasses analogy is not fussing about a picky little detail, it is pointing out the analogy is wrong on a very fundamental level. It paints a picture of the pre-Michelson-Morley days of a stationary ether that permeates all space and defines a preferred frame of reference. As Einstein said, you should make things as simple as possible, but no simpler.
I'm in Wisconsin. We don't all have 4x4 drive, tire chains are ILLEGAL,
Tire chains are illegal in Wisconsin?!?!?!!! Wouldn't that be like outlawing air conditioners in Texas or umbrellas in Seattle? What is the rationale for that?
Note, the Finnish police asked for clarification and if Wikipedia answers it will not accept payments from Finnish citizens then there is no problem. If they want to receive payments from them, they will have to follow the Finnish laws. Period.
How is Wikipedia supposed to determine where the payments came from? If people donate using PayPal, is their home address always given? Is there anything to stop Finnish people from opening US PayPal accounts?
1. Keep Calm, don't panic.
2. Accelerate Slowly
3. Decelerate Slowly
4. Drive Slowly
5. Double or Triple your distance that you normally are between you and the car in font of you, to allow more time to stop.
Ummm, none of these tips help you if you're boxed in on all four sides by cars that have been abandoned by their drivers.
This wasn't black ice. It was a solid sheet of ice, curb to curb, sitting on every paved surface in the area.
The phrase "black ice" refers not to a special type of ice, but generally to ice that is invisible on the road at night time, catching drivers by surprise. It is no different than the "solid sheet of ice" that you describe. Ice is ice. Although it isn't much fun, I have driven on ice, that hadn't yet been salted or gravelled, and it is treacherous, but by driving slowly and understanding how to control your vehicle, it can be done. People in Canada and the northern states do it all the time. I won't say I've never seen cars in ditches here in Canada during such conditions, but I've never seen the kind of 24 hour traffic jams that occurred in Atlanta.
Wait, so your solution to young managers not having experience is to delay them getting experience until they're older? How does that solve anything apart from pissing on young people?
I think he said that young people shouldn't be put in management positions. They can work other positions in a company, particularly in groups where they can develop people skills, and by working for a manager, observe what works and what doesn't. An aspiring manager could meet with an actual manager in the company and ask questions like "Why don't you check employee's Facebook pages? I heard in school that it can really help." And the actual manager can reply "We've found that in the real world, Facebook profiles don't correlate with worker performance." Then when they actually do get a management position, they will have benefited from their own experience working with others, and from the managers' experience as a manager.
The article says it was the first ever action-adventure game on a console. Also full of other innovations. Best. Game. Ever.
Including the first ever Easter Egg that I'd heard of, probably the first Easter Egg in any console game. To this day, I still remember the name Warren Robinett.
