Sure but there's like 5000 total tanks, and 80,000,000 houses (not including multi unit buildings). It doesn't scale. The military as a whole doesn't work well as a police trying to enforce laws, but even if it did, it wouldn

Right, but there's too many doors Tanks can go through some of the doors, especially as long as you know there isn't a basement. So if you have a small segment of a population you need to go through doors on, sure. But if it&#x27

Tanks can't go door to door on enough of the populace. If it's a law that's unpopular enough, it's not enforceable pretty much anywhere. Even less so in the US, because of the staggering number of civilian owned guns.

We had a 100-200 car ferry here in Seattle lose power and run into an island last year. I think it was something like bad fuel killing the generator.

That could well be (especially if you look at banks who don't offer competitive interest rates on cash). That said, Goldman Sachs is sort of infamously bad at consumer banking, so I'd take their words there with a grain of salt.

Idk maybe it's just me, but what I was taught in comp architecture was that cisc vs risc has more to do with the complexity of the instructions, not the raw count. So TPU having a smaller number of instructions can still be a cisc if

There's some overlap, but yea it's really not how things work. If you're in the US, UK, Aus, Canada, etc, the common law system in use is fundamentally quite different.

By law here, you mean EU style civil law?

So if he's sentenced to 40 years in federal court ... (this is federal court, right? I forgot) Fed doesn't do parole. Best you can get typically is time for good behavior for like 15% reduction in length. But there's a good

Oh interesting, are French judges appointed based on their prior law practice expertise? In the US there is that problem somewhat, with the cafc. But probably <50%, it also has a lot of academics and government lawyers too.

Seems cool I'm just psyched to learn it has multiple separate subject-matter segregated appeals courts. Always looked like a saner approach than geographically separating circuit courts. Get judges with more specialized expertise in

They probably meant succession, which in the context of a forest means like the regrowth/repopulation, which can take hundreds of years.
