I'm not saying that bad training isn't a problem. I'm saying that the reason training is bad is because of a deeper underlying root problem. That's what has to be addressed, and if it isn't then any other changes are just window dressing.
I don't think it's a huge problem, but it does make reading the comments much more difficult. I wish it were possible to collapse entire threads -- that would remove all my issues.

"If you couldn't rely on a government to stick to its plans, you would find that most long term investment (e.g. power plants) would end up being significantly more expense"
True. And then you know what you'd do? You wouldn't invest in those countries anymore. This is a self-correcting problem. There's no need to subvert a nation's sovereignty for this.
Before thinking that functionality is something that your customers would actually want, ask yourself "is it a good idea to put copy on packaging and advertising that tells customers about this wonderful feature?"
If the answer is "no", then the feature is a hostile act against your customers.
(Of course, Vizio knows full well this is a hostile act. They're just lying to their shareholders about it.)
The Doobie Brothers claim seems completely without merit to me. There's no possible confusion there. However, the Online Computer Library Center holds the trademark for "Dewey Decimal System" -- if there's even a slight chance for confusion it would be with that.*
* I'm only seriously joking here, as the OCLC's trademark is in a different market category.

I don't understand how minimum speed limits are enforceable. Where I live, the flow of traffic is frequently below 40 MPH. It's physically impossible to drive faster.
Re: Re: Re: Let's see what happens if we use this defense when caught speeding
According to the highway dept, if there's a minimum speed limit sign, it is legally enforceable. However, they are considering doing away with minimum speed limits across the board.

I hope this is true, as that makes it fixable. But I seriously doubt that's the main problem. The training is one of the symptoms.

Facebook's response
From their equally clueful responses to the internet.org stuff, I'll go with a third option: they're hoping that all of us are that clueless.

If the answer is "no", then the feature is a hostile act against your customers.
