Nope. This came up a few weeks ago and I checked it very carefully before posting because I thought it was true and was trying to post a map of the border including the airports.

Border patrol can only work near airports.

The 100 mile range near any airport is a myth.

The article isn’t about ice. It specifically says airports

“Border Agents”

You pulling a gun out at an airport is suicide.

The best part was their final was a power point presentation.

Yeah I got to this in the blog and stopped:

" I don’t think that we’re any safer than before. That’s because finding vulnerabilities has never been the bottleneck in information security. The bottleneck isn’t even verifying a vulnerability report and validating its severity, as time consuming as that is. The bottleneck isn’t determining the fix, creating the patch, or publishing a new release. The bottleneck is still, as ever before, getting the goddamn packages updated. "

Dude thinks security through obscurity is valid and thinks running

sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y

Is the really hard part.

“Unresizeable block device at end of disk”

Classically the swap partition was located at the physical middle of the drive so that on average, no matter where the heads where, the swap partition wasn’t far away

Historically swap needed to be a minimum of installed ram.

I don’t understand the purpose of the exposed daisy chained cables. If it is not meant to be frequently unplugged, then why not wire an internal bus of 14 awg with Wago?

I wouldn’t say “need”. European honey bees are a foreign invasive species. They displace the native pollinators. IMO hobbyists are worse because they are damaging the native bees without reason unlike industrial farmers that need the bees to produce the food we all eat.

And the reality is the vast majority of hobbiest bee keepers do it as a tax dodge. In most states, if you put a hive on your yard, you get to classify your house as a farm and pay virtually no property taxes.

I used low numbers of ranges and rounded down.

The problem you describe as “temporary” implies that once your children are grown, they don’t have further children that will use more resources.

A worker in a growing population can somehow support 4 children and 2 parents (6 dependents) yet supporting only 2 parents and no children (2 dependents) is a problem?

So no, it’s not “temporary”. It’s a pyramid that eventually grows such that the foundation must crumble from the weight of everyone above.

An infant requires more constant care than a dying elderly. Parents are on rotation 24/7 for the first year. That’s more than elderly get in hospice.

Moneywise it’s $600k for a child. $400k from parents. $200k from the state for the free k-12 education.

Elderly on average have $200k in savings age 65-74 and spend $155k in medical costs their last 3 years.

Children are more expensive in money and direct labor.

Average 64-75 have $200k savings and spend $155k for last 3 years.

A child takes $600k. ($300k from parents. $100k college. $200k paid by state to cover the free k-12.)

Cost per child is $300k, $400k including college. The state (which means workers’ taxes) chip in an average of $17k / year for k-12 which is another $200k. That’s $600k per child, not including the free labor from the parents.

The average savings for someone 65-74 is $200k. End of life costs are $155k for the last 3 years.

Land isn’t unlimited. Physical resources aren’t unlimited. For example while a person can manufacture more batteries, with more people on the planet each battery will be more expensive for everyone because each is vying for the same limited resources that are used to make a battery.

I also wouldn’t say that low birthrate is caused by capitalism but by over population. No economic system can sustain unlimited growth. When too many are competing for too few resources, there is no time for families.

Senior citizens become people to take care of,

Children need more resources to raise than seniors take.

Except for population to grow it requires children which also don’t work, require more resources than elderly, and at the end of 20 years instead of freeing up resources (by dying like the elderly), continue to consume resources.
