That might be convenient for the purpose of timekeeping, but then you would also have to redefine all sorts of physical constants, which could be problematic. Oops, our lander crashed because we were doing calculations using Moon seconds, b

It's hard to say. Historically federal convictions were very strict, requiring you to serve at least 85% of your sentence. The First Step Act passed in 2018 significantly relaxed that down to 50% for non-violent crimes[1]. I don't

For context, Visa and MasterCard combined average 10k's tps, and are capable of processing 100k's tps at peak. So if it works out, that would put Ethereum in the same ballpark.

The way I read the json standard, the only way to include control characters is to encode them as hex. For example BEL can be encoded as "\u0007", but escaping it by using a backslash followed by a literal BEL character is not all
