I wanted to share with you that I've been working with some of the central code in coreboot, where AP has a different meaning than "assassination politics". Instead it means " application processor", and it's used this way throughout the code.

The AP code is held in contrast to the BSP code. BSP means "bootstrap processor". This represents the initial processor run after boot, that runs the special BSP code to initialise important stuff.

Once the system is ready for concurrency, the AP code can then run on all the other processors.

coreboot has a "boot_cpu()" function that returns true when run on the BSP, and false otherwise.

This isn't meant as an analogy to anything about assassination politics, although I know it can seem that way with my non-sequitor and the general global gaslighting.

It just seems nice to think about systems engineering things. CPU bootstrap code. Less charged topics.

Hope you are well.
