Cause of Death of Lance Reddick, the 'Concierge' of the John Wick Series

<Note that there are some John Wick 4 story contents>.

Early on in John Wick 4, when the Marquis shoots Caron (Lance Reddick) because he's getting rid of the New York Continental Hotel and doesn't need a concierge anymore. I was surprised because he was so well cast as the loyal and charismatic sidekick in the movie, and I was like, "Why would they cut him out of the movie so abruptly?

After watching the movie, I did some research and realized that the actor had already died last month, at the ripe old age of 60. It reminded me of a common story about actors following their roles.

Lance Reddick's cause of death (according to his death certificate) was ischemic heart disease and atherosclerotic coronary artery disease*. Ischemic heart disease causes angina or myocardial infarction**, so it's a heart-related sudden death, and since the discovery was made by officials (law officials, presumably the police), it's assumed that no one was around when he was in danger.

However, there have since been comments from Lance Reddick's family lawyer*** that the reports of a heart-related cause of death are inaccurate, as Lance Reddick was an avid daily exerciser and dieter.

Rest in peace Lance Reddick, "Mr. Concierge" of the John Wick franchise.

gnueabi errors on 64-bit Ubuntu Linux

When you first started Android development, you installed 64-bit Ubuntu Linux, CodeSorcerer toolchain, you may have encountered the following error. --------------------------------------------------------- arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc: No such file or directory or arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc: command not found or arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc: cannot execute binary files --------------------------------------------------------- Looking at the properties of the arm-none-linux-gnueabi-gcc file with the file command, ELF 32-bit LSB executable, which means that the toolchain is built as a 32-bit binary. (This is also described in the Code Sorcery G++ documentation) Now, you might think that this would be a problem in a 64-bit environment. So what's the problem? The first answer is that there is no 32-bit version of the shared library that this file (32-bit) uses. 64-bit Ubuntu only installs 64-bit shared libraries by default. However, the error message is actually a bit misleading. It's...

How to Fix Mac Calculator '=' Button Not Showing Up

Image
In Mac calculators, sometimes you see a button that says "Enter" instead of the "=" button (see below). This can be frustrating, as pressing the Enter key will not result in a correct calculation. The solution is to go to the Calculator menu -> View -> Turn off 'RPN mode'*. * The Reverse Polish Notation (RPN) method was originally created to reduce computer memory access and evaluate expressions using a stack, and all Hewlett Packard desktop and portable calculators used RPN in the 1970s and 1980s, and continued to use it on some models into the 2020s. In computer science, RPN notation is used in stack-oriented programming languages such as Forth, STOIC, and PostScript. Forth, STOIC, PostScript, RPL, and Joy.
