Wow, one of their examples/citations of a trial taking a long time was a Judge Chutkan case, and she just reminded them that it was because of the pandemic!

R. Lee Ermey / Full Metal Jacket?

First time visiting our city's new sports stadium was ending the pandemic with a long queue of people getting vaccinated.

JWZ blog is great - definitely read some of the posts he links in this one!

It was a staple of Asimov's books that while trying to predict decisions of the robot brain, nobody in that world ever understood how they fundamentally worked.

He said that while the first few generations were programmed by humans, everything since that was programmed by the previous generation of programs.

This leads us to Asimov's world in which nobody is even remotely capable of creating programs that violate the assumptions built into the first iteration of these systems - are we at that point now?

agreed - I think it needs a conviction to occur before anyone can argue this.

7 people were convicted already of seditious conspiracy, so either of the conspiracy charges connecting the former president with directing their actions would be pretty strong evidence.
