Lauer didn't do this because he is biased, or because he is inattentive — he did it because he is used to reporting on elections from a place of rough equivalence, and he is flummoxed by this election, which offers no such safe harbor for journalists uncomfortable with the very real differences between the two parties' nominees.
Though the defeat could quickly be forgotten with a bounce-back performance against Guatemala on Tuesday in Columbus, Ohio, there were a number of disturbing signs, mainly that the United States looked just as it did last fall — unable to string passes together, lacking in ideas about how to break down the Guatemala defense and caught being inattentive on Guatemala's two goals.
There are still many questions in introducing autonomous vehicles into our current transportation systems– what level of autonomony will be required for inattentive driving under various conditions, will most people continue to own cars, how will street parking change — but dealing with these issues is clearly less expensive than the massive investment of building new highways, bridges, or rail lines.
The atomic massacre in the novel is triggered by four intersecting errors: North Korean troops mistakenly shoot down a South Korean airliner; Seoul retaliates by striking one of Kim's palaces; Kim, convinced he's being targeted for assassination, then steels himself for a desperate war of survival; at which moment, an inattentive, irritable Trump, distracted by a delayed golf game, tweets a personal insult directed at Kim's sister.
Since he wrote "Syntactic Structures" in 1957, Mr Chomsky has argued that human language is fundamentally different from any other kind of communication, that a "linguist from Mars" would agree that all human languages are variations on a single language, and that children's incredibly quick and successful learning (despite often messy and inattentive parental input) points to an innate language faculty in the brain.
One study published in the Journal of Travel Research found that the early days of a digital detox can produce feelings of anxiety, frustration and withdrawal, with symptoms like insomnia, depression and something called "inattentive blindness" caused when users who've become so accustomed to digital assistance in keeping track of appointments, navigating from place to place and retrieving phone numbers put their prefrontal cortex into overdrive to compensate.
And the claim that critics bring unique attention to their work seems inattentive to the tenor of an age that brings us Genius (an open online tool for annotating pop lyrics and other vital cultural texts in the manner of "The Norton Shakespeare") and what's been called "recap culture" (a redoubt of erstwhile English majors poring over last night's TV in a flutter of summary, analysis, cross-analysis, and intertextual concordance).
The lower speed and reverse settings will send it forward at 2 miles per hour, but at top speed, it'll run at 5 miles per hour (there is a physical governor that you can screw into place to limit the speed to the lower setting), fast enough to prompt an inattentive bystander to jump out of the way, or to run to catch up before their diminutive driver vanishes out of sight.
If an inattentive crew allows a runaway trim to drop the nose too far below the horizon and the crew reacts with full up elevator, the nose will rise as certification standards require, but it may remain below the horizon for a period sufficient to allow the airspeed to continue to increase and bust right through the maximum speed, at which point recovery becomes impossible if you don't lay into the electric trim.
The old assumptions — that truth matters, that lies shame the liar, that in a democracy the press and the public must have a right to interrogate those who seek the top jobs — have all been swept aside by the Tories' conviction that in an inattentive, dissatisfied, cacophonous world, victory will go to the most compelling entertainer, the most plausible and shameless deceiver, the leader who can drill home a repetitive and seductive incantation.
The evidence, however, suggests something rather different and darker — that as the balance of power shifts away from party establishments and toward the mass public, we will get government driven by the whims of the inattentive and uninformed, and there won't be much beyond dumb luck standing between the republic and a telegenic demagogue who happens to secure the backing of the minority of people who bother to vote in primary elections.
Her prose can be inattentive ("take the bull by the horns"; "putting on a brave face"); her account of the period's social and political unrest is laboured and lacking in fresh insights; and her consideration of the writing of Evelyn and Pepys suffers from a lack of comparison with that of the century's other great life-writers—one thinks of George Fox, a Quaker, or John Rogers, a member of the Fifth Monarchy, an extreme Puritan sect.
As soon as she was off the lift she girded up her skirts, and took off her sandals and set them on the crate along with the small bag that held everything else she owned now—her identity tabula and a few small toiletries—and then set out on the long stop-and-start trek through the docks, swerving around inattentive travelers when she could, the time display in her vision reassuring her, at least, that she still had plenty of time to reach her ship, which was, predictably, in the section of the docks farthest from where she'd entered.
