Donald Trump’s administration has reportedly instructed immigration enforcement officers to cut back on arrests inside courthouses and to no longer enter homes without a warrant, backing off two controversial policies that have sparked violent and chaotic scenes in the president’s mass deportation campaign.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement field offices across the country were verbally instructed by their superiors that they should no longer enter homes unless they have a judicial warrant, two Homeland Security officials told NBC News.

Last year, ICE’s then-acting director Todd Lyons told officers to rely on the agency’s own permissions to enter a person’s home — rather than seek a warrant from a judge. Homeland Security then issued a lengthy press release defending the policy.

        Ahhhh that makes sense, I started learning basic in middle school to program games on my calculator, but never got very far into it.

          TI-BASIC is one of the variants that uses its own tokens instead of character strings for keywords and inequivalence operators, so it actually uses a ≠ symbol.

          I programmed and distributed multitudinous games on my TI-8x through junior high and high school, to the point that graphing calculators were eventually banned in the majority of classrooms.
