Most countries do not require you to serve a month every year like the IOF does.
They’re still reservists in those others countries though, right? Fundamentally it seems like the same thing to me. And your quote says “at most”; I doubt every military aged person is serving a month every year
Reservist is the status you get when you go to your annual (or whatever) checkups and are listed as can be called for active duty. You’re basically active duty but you’re not needed at the moment.
Isn’t this what happens when you complete your compulsory military training? You can then be called for service at any time. I still don’t see the difference
It’s fair to consider reservists as civilians imo. There’s plenty of countries with mandatory conscription and it would be absurd to consider anyone that has completed it as military instead of civilian

Where there demonstrations every day for 455 days in HK? If not then the arrests/day statistic is disingenuous
Why? The “glow” meme by itself is not racist, and a lot of people aren’t even aware of it’s origin?Why shouldn’t we use the version of the meme that isn’t racist?
Oops, my bad
so you came up with your own term to cover your mistake?
That’s not how the square root is defined.
You’re confusing “square root of 100” with “the answer to x^2 = 100”. These are different things.
Americans seemingly can’t grasp war as something more than k/d stats. You see it a lot in discussions about Ukraine, too; lots of them devolve to “but 1 gajillion russian casualties/destroyed materiel”
The math involved in LLMs is not complex for anyone that has passed undergrad Calc and Linear Algebra classes. If you know derivatives, the chain rule and some matrix basics you can figure them out with enough studying.
The hard part about LLMs is not the math but the neural net architecture innovations they brought (eg self-attention)
Does it really matter if the delivery system is inferior? Google says they have five thousand warheads. Even if 4900 get intercepted (98% success rate), 100 nukes will connect.
Also, besides the launch silos, there’s the bombers and the nuclear subs, which are enough to end the world by themselves
So you’re a communist that denounces every communist project atop an ivory tower, instead of understanding the realities of actually building a socialist society (no magical button that will make us overcome hierarchies overnight, I’m afraid). Sounds like you’re just larping about being a communist
Are you implying that you don’t remember that experience, or that salvia caused you memory issues?
Going by the same logic Iran is also a winner because they got a live test for their drones and missiles
Honestly English is a solid language: no conjugations, no gendered nouns, minimal articles – the only problem I (and most other people) have with it is that words are not written phonetically.
