This regional average works out at 7.8 officers per 1,000 (including the chief, making 6 officers per 772 population).
On the other hand, small numbers make a poor comparison for ratios. To ensure 24/7 coverage, you might expect a higher ratio.
Which isn't to say there isn't an issue, but the maths don't automatically illustrate an issue.

"following our communication with the manufacturer, a software update was issued that removed the strict periodicity of the current peaks in one battery block of the investigated UPS system"
Given the issue is so widespread (international, affecting pretty much every grid), it's likely that multiple manufacturers use similar approaches.
> "Those are largely freezable by the issuer of the paper."
Interested to understand how this would work in a decentralised accounting mechanism.
That way when it was formatted, you could take it upstairs and the weaker magnetic field meant the disk's magnetic structure was stronger so it could be read.
This also caused the early-days meme of computer geeks being "basement dwellers".
Unless there are pollutants involved, the wreck is generally a net positive for biodiversity and provides an attractive area for marine life.
The yeast could be used to brew alcohol, and the viscosity and strong smell could be used to hide drugs and misdirect sniffer dogs.
There's a limit: you can fill a medium saucepan with boiling water, but large/industrial-kitchen pans will exhaust the boiling water and you'll need to wait for the next batch.
It's fine for general household use.
Critical National Infrastructure should go further, as Iran found out with Stuxnet.
"With this ritual, I hereby summon autistic people to the conversation" > "The ULEZ camera had already been cut down"
In general, diesel vehicles are more likely to exceed the emission threshold.
One of the key challenges is electricity distribution, with a number of key transmission bottlenecks: a notable one is Scotland/England, where Scotland renewables generate more power than necessary, but not all of it can be exported to England as their isn't enough capacity across that transmission section.
Transmission capacity growth is now the key priority for the grid, with policies and plans optimised to address the bottlenecks in distribution.
Although you could pipe cool water through the radiators, it's an ineffective form of cooling compared to blown-air systems, and retro-fitting a blown-air system is much more costly than a heating-only heat pump.
Climate change and oil use have generated predominantly non-violent protests.
Palestinian rights have generated direct action protests but not riots.
Energy hasn't really been on the radar (except in the context of climate-change protests).
I only started using them last week and have already deployed them across half my home-lab (replacing full-fat VMs and docker containers).
The tooling's not at the same level as Docker, but the efficiency makes up for the initial hassle.
The "questionable" piece is ripping the DVD to a home media library to play via Jellyfin. Which might be fair use in some countries.
