Comment Causal Relationship? (Score 1) 220

To develop a relationship between the two is difficult at best due to all of the factors involved. One might take the gender of gamers into consideration or try to measure the impact of one game versus another, but in the end, you still have to deal with additional factors like what sort of information people take away from games and actually apply to real world situations as well as what really qualifies as a good decision in traffic given multiple factors. I think it is better to slowly pick out the effects of gaming on individual measures of "driving performance" before coming to something as grand as a definite relationship between driving and gaming. That's just me, though.

Comment Typical Korea (Score 3, Insightful) 136

in three to five years, Engkey will mature enough to replace native speakers.

This is another one of Korea's stupid ideas to save a quick buck. At one point they tried to have Korean teachers replace the foreign teachers saying that they could do the job just as well. Obviously, it didn't work. Not only because they have poor hiring standards across the board (cheapest = best) but also because it's very difficult to teach a language without native speaking knowledge.

Robots teaching kids? Stupid and destined to fail.

Comment The New North Korea (Score 1) 176

Korea has been moving slowly but surely to remove the rights of its citizens, blackout the media and increase the powers of the incumbent president. As such, this comes as no surprise.. is what I want to say but more likely than not it is just an extension of Korea's horrible record of customer service within the country.
