Soo, lets do some more estimates. Let's say they end up with around 60MLoC as well. Lets say AI adds one show-stopping bug every 1000 LoC.

I think that estimate is quite unrealistic. Remember that a line of code can be quite long and contain multiple expressions and whatnot, so I'd say AI could hit at least two showstopper bugs per line of code. Not even DOGE's child geniuses can match that.

Actually Nope...

Actually, yes. You misread (or didn't read at all) that case. When a person accepts a pardon, they are indeed confessing guilt. From Lorance:

"(The) general rule (is) that a pardon implies guilt and acceptance a confession thereof."

Lorance is really about whether you can maintain a habeas petition after pardon, not the meaning of a pardon itself.

Martian Dust May Pose Health Risk To Humans Exploring Red Planet, Study Finds 1

A new study warns that toxic Martian dust contains fine particles and harmful substances like silica and metals that pose serious health risks to astronauts, making missions to Mars more dangerous than previously thought. The Guardian reports: During Apollo missions to the moon, astronauts suffered from exposure to lunar dust. It clung to spacesuits and seeped into the lunar landers, causing coughing, runny eyes and irritated throats. Studies showed that chronic health effects would result from prolonged exposure. Martian dust isn't as sharp and abrasive as lunar dust, but it does have the same tendency to stick to everything, and the fine particles (about 4% the width of a human hair) can penetrate deep into lungs and enter the bloodstream. Toxic substances in the dust include silica, gypsum and various metals.

"A mission to Mars does not have the luxury of rapid return to Earth for treatment," the researchers write in the journal GeoHealth. And the 40-minute communication delay will limit the usefulness of remote medical support from Earth. Instead, the researchers stress that limiting exposure to dust is essential, requiring air filters, self-cleaning space suits and electrostatic repulsion devices, for example.
