ARCHES NATIONAL PARK, Utah (KUTV) — A trailer carrying thousands of pounds of shredded cheese split open after the semi-truck hauling it tipped over near the entrance to Arches National Park in Grand County, spilling its contents across the roadway.

Utah Highway Patrol Sgt. Cameron Roden said the semi, traveling southbound on US-191, veered off the road for an unknown reason around 6 a.m., striking two light poles. The trailer tipped over upon impact and spilled shredded cheese across the highway.

All southbound lanes were closed while two tow trucks worked to remove the semi from the scene. Northbound traffic was reduced to one lane while southbound traffic was being detoured into the median.

Sgt. Roden noted that the driver’s injuries appeared to be minor, but both light poles were damaged and would require repairs.

Lane restrictions and possible height restrictions will remain in effect near milepost 130 until further notice. No other details were immediately available.

OOPS!

Wrong Thread!

assembly language
The Voyager spacecraft computers are interrupt driven computer, similar to processors used in general purpose computers with a few special instructions for increased efficiency. The programming is a form of assembly language.

Yep, it is!

I had the incredible fortune of taking a SYS/360 assembler class where the professor was a retired JPL engineer. He was the team lead for Voyager's software reliability oversight.
