The local state motorcycle training course will not allow you to cover the brake while learning. They consider it especially dangerous for new riders for the reason you stated.
This looks counterproductive. I can get that when one first learns to ride and therefore has no idea of what to expect from the road and from the bike this sort of precaution might have some sense. For about first couple hundred of kilometers/miles. But no more than that.
The whole point of learning to ride is to train yourself to always be prepared and situationally aware, to maintain total awareness of what you are doing, what is going on ahead and behind you, and keeping being able to correctly react as fast as possible whatever happens. Thus fingers on the brake.
They are seriously out there to kill you. Be it distracted car drivers, sloppy road maintenance, stray dogs, bad weather, random idiots.. any of this will kill you if you relax.
An occassional lowside or two in one's first two seasons most likely won't. Given even a mediocre protection set, one will get away with a bit of shock and maybe needing a new pair of pants. And a whole lot of training of the kind no school can give. Like when to pull the front brake and when to just open throttle and hope for the best.
Besides there is a saying - if you do not crash once a season, you do not ride, period.
Which is a grim reminder of that if one does not push oneself, one is losing skill.
I ride for about 30 years already and this is true. Motorcycles are not safe and cannot be safe, safety isn't in the concept, and this is what we love about them.
At the very least, I would hope that we could curb their ability to Advertise the same way we do with a variety of other social harms. People, kids especially, do not need to intake 35 DraftKing ads while watching a game with their family.
you say it doesn’t set precedent, but federal judges got admonished for not following the precedent from one of these shadow docket outcomes set like a month ago.
> Joined by fellow conservative justice and Trump appointee Brett Kavanaugh, Gorsuch wrote that all Supreme Court orders carry the weight of precedent, regardless of whether or not they were issued in a shadow docket ruling.
Well, yes, that was my thought. I mean my own employer had some company branded power banks that they gave out to employees. They're crap! But they were requested by the Sales team to hand out as swag at trade shows and whatnot, so they probably didn't put much more thought into it than "Find supplier that can create small power banks, slap company logo on them. Do it cheaply."
I have to think the Haribo power banks were on the same lines, although it's a bit strange that they're actually being sold on the company's Amazon storefront.
Perhaps it was a rushed tradeshow/employee perk gone awry. Something like:
Tradeshow coming up very quickly, previous merch supplier has let the sales team down.
Mid-level Haribo employee responsible for merch finds a supplier willing to rush through everything, because let's face it, Haribo are probably going to pay their bills.
MoQ is 100 units, which is 1 lot.
Sales person intends to order 2000 units, better to be safe than sorry and run out. Accidentally orders 2000 lots of units with 100 units per lot. This isn't noticed until they're already printed and then it's, as they say in the legal profession, no takesie backsies.
Haribo suddenly have a lot more power banks than they have booth visitors, and employees combined.
Rather than store them indefinitely, they sell them off at cost and shift them quickly though Amazon. This drastically cuts down on warehousing space of small lithium (explosive) packs that the candy people have to store.
And kids and grown-ups love it so, with 20,000mAh wherever they go.
Indeed, but it is odd that it’s apparently only these Haribo batteries with this design. I’d expect them to be white-label products that many companies resell with their own branding.
I can't tell if you are deliberately being obtuse but they are talking about apps overall and not Meta's apps. Many apps use Facebooks SDK because of the Facebook Pixel for tracking and advertisement. Web apps don't prevent that and again, cannot be easily run offline so I'll stick with my native apps.
