So now he is on an adventure to find the keys and open the box on his thirteenth birthday.



The Supreme Court agreed with a police department to decide whether a police department violated the constitutional privacy rights of an employee when it inspected personal text messages sent and recieved on a government pager.

__ HOW FLASH MEMORY WORKS __

Flash memory is a type of **EEPROM chip,** which stands for **Electronically Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory.** It has a grid of columns and rows with a cell that has two transistors at each intersection. The two transistors separate from each other by a thin layer of oxide. The two transistors are called **floating gate** and the other is **control gate.** The floating gate only links to the row, or **worldline,** which is through the control gate. As long as this link is in place, the cell has a value of 1. To change the value to a 0 requires a curious process called **Fowler-Nordheim Tunneling.**
