He said they were going to break down the door. Police in the US will never do that without guns drawn. Maybe he was confused about the exact circumstances though.

> Do you think it a coïncidence that most spy satellites are launched from Vandenberg?

That's the only place you can launch a polar mission over ocean from the continental United States.

So? Why should "my son hasn't answered his phone" escalate to an armed response?

TFA. Although I think they’re wrong on this account. It doesn’t matter that the stock was worth more mere months later when the cashed their investment checks.

But what is an issue is the self-dealing of buying shares in a company he holds a major role in the management of.

Most of a wind turbine is concrete and fiberglass, which doesn’t recycle very well.

What I mean is that they were hired based on their acting CV and auditions. It turns out that a very small number of mostly minor actors had some run in with the law in their youth, and there is one actor who had been selling drugs decades before. This story got media play when The Wire was on TV and people thought that the producers had gone out and hired actual gang members for the cast. This isn’t true. They went through the usual screen actors guild and casting process. The iconic characters people remember are mostly stage actors, and not from Baltimore (two of the main characters are British).

> The actors -- many of whom are actual former gang members, police officers, judges, politicians, teachers, etc. from the city Baltimore

This is a persistent myth. They were all professional actors.

Our elementary school is 5 hours of Webex meetings daily. There are breaks scattered in between, but it is grueling. My 4th grader can barely manage it, but my 1st grader can’t sit still that long.

Edit: Why is something like this downvoted? I didn’t state anything other than my relevant direct experience.

Sorry, I read "order of magnitude more efficient" and was confused.

No. In this context it simply means "network-standard." And the standard has always been big endian for network applications. Not because of any advantage, but simply because that was the standard.

Well that, and the fact that it actually says “Advertisement.”

It’s called a “weak ordering memory model.” Synchronization requires explicit memory fence instructions.

RISC-V, btw, supports both weak and strong memory models as an implementation choice.

Many ARM chips have this.
