Illegal Migrants Less Likely to Commit Crime? Guess Again.

In June, Victor Martinez-Hernandez was charged with the murder of Rachel Morin, a mother of five in Maryland. Police in Oklahoma tracked the accused repeat offender down with a sample of his DNA recovered from a Los Angeles home invasion in which a nine-year-old girl and her mother were assaulted. Police say he came to the U.S. illegally to escape prosecution for at least one other murder in his native El Salvador in December 2022. 

“That should never have been allowed to happen,” said Sheriff Jeffrey Gahler, referring to the numerous missed red flags the case presented. His office apprehended Hernandez in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

RNC & ”Migrant Crime”: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver (HBO)

*** begin quote ***

John Oliver discusses the wave of people claiming there’s a wave of “migrant crime,” where the term came from, and what we can do next. 

*** end quote ***

# – # – # – # – # 

When I listened to John Oliver’s show, I was admonished that there was no such thing as “migrant crime” and the term came from the evil Republicans.

Well here is one specific example that counters that argument.

Any even the liberal media has reported a lot of “migrant crime”!

Surly, this deserves an “update” when he comes back from his end-of-season break?

I hope that all the bad guys can be deported and we can get back to some peace in our country,

RECOMMENDED: Read “Starship Troopers” for yourself; I loved it

Saturday, November 30, 2024

‘Starship Troopers’ Star Casper Van Dien Says Franchise Should Be Revived As TV Series: “Why Wouldn’t You Make This?”
Jorge Arenas   |  Nov 21, 2024

*** begin quote ***

Amidst the ongoing trend of Hollywood remaking and rebooting fan-favorite franchises, the star of the first Starship Troopers film, Casper Van Dien, thinks now is as good a time as any to send the troops of the United Citizen Federation on a new TV-specific deployment.

*** and ***

Working against this idea is the fact that thanks to director Paul Verhoeven’s decision to turn Robert Heinlen’s military novel into a biting satire of such concepts as propaganda and societal control, the film has a divided reputation among audiences, with some believing it to be a straight-forward war tale, some unsure of what to make of the subversion, and fans of the source material dismayed by the sheer amount of liberties taken with the original story.

Adding to this lack of a consensus is the fact that Verhoeven was unfamiliar with the property he was attempting to subvert, with the actor telling Empire in 2012 that he never finished reading Heinlen’s book because he found it “boring and depressing”.

*** end quote ***

Argh!

This is the book that I read as a teenager that turned me into a little L libertarian.  The VietNam war was happening and, even then, I thought the politicians and bureaucrats were full of “Barbara Streisand”. 

There are so many of Heinlein’s moralisms in it that I don’t understand HOW anyone could consider it “boring”.  

In light of VietNam, the line “men aren’t potatoes” certainly drove home the POW / MIA issue for me.  When I learned that we left men behind in WW2 and Korea, I became incensed.

The topic cam up in USAF survival school and you could see it was a “sore spot” for all involved.

I have a literal slew of Heinlein quotes just from Starship Troopers alone,

  • “Because revolution—armed uprising—requires not only dissatisfaction but aggressiveness. A revolutionist has to be willing to fight and die—or he’s just a parlor pink. If you separate out the aggressive ones and make them the sheep dogs, the sheep will never give you trouble.” ― Robert A. Heinlein, Starship Troopers
  • “There are no dangerous weapons; there are only dangerous men.” ― Robert A. Heinlein, Starship Troopers
  • “When you come right to it, it’s a lot easier to die than it is to use your head.” ― Robert A. Heinlein, Starship Troopers
  • “I told you that ‘juvenile delinquent’ is a contradiction in terms. ‘Delinquent’ means ‘failing in duty.’ But duty is an adult virtue—indeed a juvenile becomes an adult when, and only when, he acquires a knowledge of duty and embraces it as dearer than the self-love he was born with. There never was, there cannot be a ‘juvenile delinquent.’ But for every juvenile criminal there are always one or more adult delinquents—people of mature years who either do not know their duty, or who, knowing it, fail.”  ― Robert A. Heinlein,  Starship Troopers  
      
  • Remember Heinlein’s Starship Troopers’ universe? One does not merely have the right to be a citizen and vote by virtue of what Heinlein called the mere accident of birth; rather, one has to earn this right through Federal Service that tested one’s ability and willingness to sacrifice for the greater good of the polity. Bet not a lot of vets would vote for all the undeclared wars the USA has been in since WW2?
  • “Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor, and the contrary opinion is wishful thinking at its worst. Breeds that forget this basic truth have always paid for it with their lives and their freedoms” ― Robert A. Heinlein, Starship Troopers
  • “A soldier accepts personal responsibility for the safety of the body politic of which he is a member, defending it, if need be, with his life. The civilian does not.” — Lt. Col. Jean V. Dubois (Ret.) and student, p. 26 Starship Troopers (1959) by Robert A. Heinlein 
  • “Cast me into a dungeon;, burn me at the state, crown me king of kings, I can ‘pursue happiness’ as long as my brain lives — but neither gods nor saints, wise men nor subtle drugs, can insure that I will catch it.” ― Robert A. Heinlein, Starship Troopers
  • “Peace” is a condition in which no civilian pays any attention to military casualties which do not achieve page-one, lead-story prominence—unless that civilian is a close relative of one of the casualties.” ― Robert A. Heinlein, Starship Troopers
  • “What we obtain too cheap, we esteem too lightly . . . it would be strange indeed if so celestial an article as FREEDOM should not be highly rated. —Thomas Paine” ― Robert A. Heinlein, Starship Troopers
  • “The best things in life are beyond money; their price is agony and sweat and devotion” ― Robert A. Heinlein, Starship Troopers

How could anyone of these be “boring”?

I find them thought provoking and of incalculable worth as a guiding principles.

I especially thing that vet only voting is an absolute must.  Right along with the Taxpayers should have their own “house” in Congress.

Argh!

Scottish Government Tells High Court Men Can Too Get Pregnant
By Josh Slocum / November 27, 2024 

*** begin quote ***

Oh, Scotland. You were once a kingdom celebrated in legend and song for your marauding men and bonnie lasses scrapping it out on the border with England as you fought to maintain your culture. Your border reivers were the forerunners of the outlaws and cowboys in the American West. You gave the world James I (of England), who gave the world the most revered translation of the Bible. 

Now, you’re in court making asses out of yourselves. And for what? “Pregnant men” and “male lesbians.”

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Big trash investment but no savings for the taxpayer

NYCHA shows off new state-of-the-art vacuum-powered trash system in Harlem
newyork
By Jessi Mitchell
November 19, 2024 / 10:35 PM EST / CBS New York 

*** begin quote ***

NEW YORK — A new state-of-the-art trash system in NYCHA’s Polo Grounds Towers in Harlem promises to tackle energy, rodent and recycling issues.

It is the first public housing building in the country to use the pneumatic technology.

*** and ***

Currently, staff spend eight hours a day moving garbage between buildings by foot. Now those crews will be better used, contributing to NYCHA’s partnership with Compost Power on the property, raking and repurposing fallen leaves, grinding them up into ground cover, as residents drop off food scraps for the community garden.

*** end quote ***

Sad that there is nothing in this for the Taxpayer.  

And why is it a Federal issue?  

(Remember:  The Taxpayer funds extracted by the Federal Gooferment are decreased by handling costs for each level those fund pass thru.  Into “Federal”, there goes 50%. Into NYC, there goes 50%. Into NYCHA, there goes another 50%.  So, ½ times ½ time ½ equals a “friction effect” of losing 87.5%.  Quibble about the exact percentage but you get the point.  Pay for it as close to the service as possible!)

Also, why don’t private owners of rental properties do something similar?  Maybe it’s not cost-effective?  Or, maybe, the owners and / or renters would prefer a different amenity in stead?

Bottom line: The Taxpayers get to pay for something that most people could care less about.  Except for the Socialists with their “religion” of Leftist issues.  Argh!

HEALTH: About Vaccines That You Should Know

Thursday, November 28, 2024

 

 

Nine Things About Vaccines That You Should Know But That No One Else Will Tell You

https://www.2ndsmartestguyintheworld.com/p/nine-things-about-vaccines-that-you

*** begin quote ***

The American Government was warned of this danger back in 1956 but the doctor who made the discovery was ignored and her laboratory was closed down. Surprise, surprise. It was five years after this discovery before drug companies started screening out the virus.

And even then Britain had millions of doses of the infected polio vaccine in stock. There is no evidence that the Government withdrew the vaccine and so it was almost certainly just used until it had all gone. No one can be sure about this because in Britain the official records which would have identified those who had received the contaminated vaccine were all destroyed by the Department of Health in 1987.

Oddly enough the destruction of those documents means that no one who develops cancer as a result of a vaccine they were given (and which was recommended to their parents by the Government) can take legal action against the Government.

Gosh.

The world is so full of surprises. My only remaining question is a simple one: How do these bastards sleep at night?

*** end quote ***

“Well, I’m not a <insert profession that requires a lot of study>, I have never played one on TV, and I didn’t stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night, but here are some simple thoughts.”

Seems there is a lot of calling RFKjr an anti-vaxer.  I’ve heard him say that “no one should be force to vax” and that “there needs to be safety studies since there are none now”.  That doesn’t seem to be an “anti-vaxer” to me.  It sounds perfectly reasonable.  

And, given the track record of Big Pharma and Big Medicine, it seems this is prudent policy advice.  Like that comic (Dave Smith recently) said “doing your own research” is not as crazy as it sounds.  

Maybe I’ve listened to too much George Carlin, Ron Paul, Malcolm X, Tom Woods, Michael Malice, and other podcasters “critical of the regime”, but it seems that “all is not well”.  

I may be a tin foil hat Conspiracy Theorist that jumps to disbelief too quickly, but a lot of those Conspiracy Theories seem to be true or at least very “plausible”. 

Do “do your own research” and make your own decisions.  Just don’t take the “default” without making a conscious decision. 

Remember we have to live with the consequences of our own decisions.

FWIW

New scam says your Apple ID is suspended — watch out for this attack
News
By Amber Bouman
last updated 16 hours ago

  • Don’t let hackers get their hands on your Apple ID with these tips

*** begin quote ***

Another day, another attempt to steal your log in credentials – this time courtesy of a phishing email that claims to be from Apple Support. Don’t be fooled however, this isn’t from Cupertino. It’s actually an attempt to get you to click on a link so hackers can steal your login credentials and other sensitive information.

This email, like many other phishing attempts, uses look-a-like formatting and other details to make you think it’s coming from a legitimate source. This latest threat says that your Apple ID has been suspended due to unusual activity or missing or invalid information. The email looks remarkably similar to actual emails from Apple Support and contains a blue button that says “Go to Apple ID.”

*** end quote ***

It is really amazing that this <synonym for excrement> still works.

Browsers should not automatically make emails clickable.

Argh!

ECONOMICS: I don’t see the downside of swapping tariffs for the IRS

The Recession into 2028 Trump Does Not Understand
Posted Nov 17, 2024 by Martin Armstrong

*** begin quote ***

As I said, Trump’s plan to eliminate and replace the income tax with tariffs will fail. I understand those who proposed the idea, citing that the nation was funded by tariffs before the income tax, and a return to that funding system may look good in bullet points, but the economy is far more complex, and the socialistic goals will not be able to simply be cut without resistance. 

*** end quote ***

I think the biggest risk is, like with the proposal for a national sales tax, is that we wind up with both tariffs and the income tax.

I am struck by the realization that some people have had that only “We, The Sheeple” pay taxes.  Corporate taxes are passed through to the consumer  —  “We, The Sheeple”.  ALL taxes eventually are our burden.

So why not swap the IRS for tariffs?

Yeah, it may cause some disruption but it has to be a net positive to eliminate all the bureaucrats and administrivia surrounding the income tax.  Everyone will be better off when the annual ritual is terminated.  Yeah, I am sure that H&R Block will scream bloody murder.  But imagine getting your paycheck without deductions?

I like it.

And I still haven’t heard a good argument why not.

VETERANS: 11 souls finally found — the terrible price of war

Tuesday, November 26, 2024

FROM 1440

*** begin quote ***

World War II Veteran Recovered

The remains of a missing World War II veteran have been recovered and identified at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. The expedition—213 feet below the surface—is the US government’s deepest underwater recovery operation to date.

On March 11, 1944, a B-24 bomber known as “Heaven Can Wait” was shot down over Papua New Guinea. The aircraft—carrying 11 US service members—was en route to bomb Japanese anti-aircraft weapons on the island’s northeast coast. Early last year, Navy divers recovered the dog tags and remains of 2nd Lt. Thomas V. Kelly Jr.—a 21-year-old aviator from California. The remains of two other veterans—radio operator Eugene J. Darrigan, 26, and navigator 2nd Lt. Donald W. Sheppick, 26—were identified earlier this year.

The mission came about after Kelly’s family members conducted an extensive research project from 2013 to 2017, gathering historical documents and eyewitness accounts to narrow the wreckage search. 

*** end quote ***

# – # – # – # – # 

It’s important that every effort be made to find and bring out vets home.

One thing that is drilled into our military is “Never leave a comrade behind”.  I learned it when I was in training and I hope it’s still taught.

I watch for these stories as a fulfillment of that ethic.  Unfortunately, the politicians and bureaucrats, some who are “perfumed princes” in the Pentagon, fail in this duty.

In the movies, it was best expressed by “We Were Soldiers” Hero, Hal Moore.

“I can’t promise you that I will bring you all home alive. But this I swear, before you and before Almighty God, that when we go into battle, I will be the first to set foot on the field, and I will be the last to step off, and I will leave no one behind. Dead or alive, we will all come home together. So help me, God.”  — Mel Gibson playing Lt. Col. Hal Moore in “We Were Soldiers”.

I know the Conspiracy Theories that we left living POWs in WWII, Korea, and Viet Nam.  I hope that they are not true.  And, I hope we are busting heads to confirm or deny.

The way we, the USA, treat our veterans is a national disgrace.

Shame on us.

 “Some had families waiting. For others, their only family would be the men they bled beside. There were no bands, no flags, no Honor Guards to welcome them home. They went to war because their country ordered them to. But in the end, they fought not for their country or their flag, they fought for each other.”  — Barry Pepper as Joe Galloway in “We Were Soldiers”

POLITICAL: Eliminate DOEd, FEMA, and the FBI

Monday, November 25, 2024

https://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2024/11/d_o_g_e_is_a_wonderful_concept_and_here_are_some_ideas_to_get_it_started.html

D.O.G.E. Is A Wonderful Concept, And Here Are Some Ideas To Get It Started
By Gregory McCants

*** begin quote ***

With Donald Trump’s election win now a few days behind us and the GOP all but confirmed to have swept both houses of congress as well it would appear that at least for two years we should have a truly unique and remarkable opportunity to make meaningful change in a variety of areas. Of highest priorities would be the economy and border security, both of which were clearly the major issues the American people looked to when deciding their next government.

Within that discussion of economic improvements, Trump has now tapped Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy to head an informal operation to be known as the Department Of Governmental Efficiency (with the excellent acronym of D.O.G.E.)

*** and ***

FEMA probably just wrote its own obituary with the revelation that a FEMA official in Florida told workers to “avoid houses with Trump signs” in the wake of Hurricane Milton, leading to loud calls for defunding the agency. The truth is that emergency disaster relief should not be handled by yet another agency with large layers of bureaucracy.

Instead, states should be able to request emergency disaster relief funds directly from Congress, with the appropriations then used to purchase necessary resources and materials, ideally from private vendors who can compete for the contracts. This would lead to increased efficiency and better prices for the taxpayer. This would also allow the government to engage in strict accounting to ensure federal funds go where they are supposed to go.

*** and ***

The DOE is on Donald Trump’s list of agencies that should be removed, and it’s been on Republican lists back to the Rick Perry days. The Department of Education (“DOE”) has long been a target of many who feel the government’s meddling in education, and its one-size-fits-all approach is ultimately detrimental. To quote Reason, “Take, for example, federal grants to state education departments. Federal aid incentivizes schools to shift their priorities to meet federal grant requirements rather than local educational needs.”

*** and ***

The FBI, originally created as an “emergency agency” in response to organized crime during the Prohibition era, has become a bloated, redundant, and ultimately useless organization that essentially serves as the outdated grandfather of other agencies conducting operations on the ground, such as the U.S. Marshalls or the Drug Enforcement Agency. One of my personal favorite YouTube commentators did an excellent video on the topic. 

*** end quote ***

As always, the Gooferment “Swamp” is a “target rich environment”.

But I hope that DOGE doesn’t get confused and jump from target to target.

Best focus on these three and drive to completion.

Don’t just trim around the edges; axe them.

If, for example, the FBI’s labs are “valuable”, then transfer them to some “technical organization” like NIST,

JOBSEARCH: Never share the hard-file, rather an access controlled version of the document

Sunday, November 24, 2024

Work & Money

Recruitment Scam Doesn’t Go As Planned After Guy Protects His Files
Jonas Grinevičius and Mindaugas Balčiauskas

*** begin quote ***

Job interviews are stressful enough as they are. Not only is your entire professional life being judged, but you also have to make sure to leave a positive impression, all the while you go through the many (many, many!) application stages. It’s exhausting.

And even though rejection is hardly ever a nice thing, there are better and worse ways to go about it. The least you can do is tell applicants that they didn’t pass, instead of ghosting them after multiple rounds of interviews. Redditor u/thegr8_alexander recently went viral on the Recruiter Hell subreddit after sharing how they pushed back at a company they were applying to after getting “radio silence.†All it took was disabling access to their take-home assignment.

*** and ***

The good thing that I did was not to share the hard-file, rather an access controlled version of the document that also disabled people from printing/downloading it.

And guess what? The recruiter called next day on the pretext of having another round of discussion because they want to go ahead with me. S/he let it slip in the conversation that evaluators are having difficulty in accessing my document and if I can share it as a file rather than sharing a link ;)

Well well, the moment I have been looking for. I told her about the malpractices that a lot of recruiters do and that’s why, in principle, I do not share any hard-files. I assured her that I’ll myself walk-through the panel on everything once again, when we connected. S/he wasn’t satisfied, but disconnected the call.

Got a ping that evening to talk something in person. We connected. S/he mentioned that I have landed him/her in a soup by disabling the access. S/he was expected to collate all the projects and share internally and there were only 3 presentations which they had shortlisted. Me not allowing access to my files will put the HR in trouble. S/he also mentioned that hiring is always professional but I’m taking it to a personal level by putting him.her in soup.

I gently replied, “Hiring is not personal. I would have accepted a rejection. But by giving me false hopes when you never intended to hire was personal. It wasn’t me who started it!”

There was a silence of a few seconds. I then proceeded to cut the call. 

*** end quote ***

I don’t think that ever happened to me.  Been a long time since I ever did any job search.  But I like this person’s approach.  Trust no one.  I’ve been “ghosted” more times than I could count.  Even went so far as to keep a “Dead To Me List” (DTML)  of recruiters and companies.  Had occasions to use it and folks were flabbergasted that (1) I would not submit “blind” (i.e., not able to id the company); (2) refused to even take calls from some recruiters or talk about certain companies; and (3) share my DTML with anyone who asked.  

I kept good records and even was able to “explain” why I didn’t want to talk to them or consider a company.  That was fun!  I didn’t care if Sam or Samantha was no longer there.  Like I’d believe anything a salesperson would say without proof. 

Argh!  Just tapping this out has raised my BP and my ire.

MONEY: What about “where’s george” and political messages in the margins or stamped

Friday, November 22, 2024

https://www.ecoticias.com/en/dollar-bill-wont-be-accepted/8835/

This dollar bill won’t be accepted as of November: This will happen if you try to pay with it
by Sarah I.
11/20/2024

*** begin quote ***

Dollar bills have consistently gone through updates to increase security. As of October this year, new parameters were introduced stipulating what cash will be accepted at major retailors, banks, and ATMS. As we head into the final month of November and families begin preparing for the upcoming festive season, you may need to ensure that your cash is up to scratch with new standards set by the U.S. government.

*** and ***

As we enter into the final few weeks of 2024, certain dollar bills will no longer be accepted. These new regulations are tightening stricter measures with regards to damaged bills. Walmart, Target, and Dollar Tree have already begun implementing these new measures. The following damage to cash will not be accepted or exchanged at major retailers, banks, and ATMS:

  •     Mutilated banks notes with tears or missing corners
  •     Bills which have become significantly distorted or damaged where it become difficult to determine their authenticity. This could be from through water damage or from being burnt as an example.

*** and ***

If you find yourself with a mutilated bill which will not be accepted or exchanged, you will need to contact the Bureau of Engraving and Printing directly. From there, you will need to file a mutilated currency claim. “The BEP will evaluate the note. They have special tools to examine the authenticity and assess the full value of the note. After they do that, they can issue a check back to the consumer,” a Fed currency representative explains.

*** end quote ***

Well, what happens to those bills with political messages stamped on them or written along the edge?

Will those be declared “mutilated”?

That’ll be “yet another way” “they” take away or First Amendment rights.

What happened to only gold and silver would be money?

ECONOMICS: Lesson from Argentina — Cut Gooferment 60% and inflation goes from 70+% to 2.7%

Javier Milei, Staunch Economist, Brings Argentina’s Inflation To Less Than 3%
‘We are emerging from the desert, the country is starting to grow again’
By Hank Berrien
Nov 13, 2024 DailyWire.com

*** begin quote ***

Staunchly libertarian Argentinian President Javier Milei’s economic plans are proving enormously successful, as the country’s inflation plunged to 2.7% in October, the lowest level in three years.

*** and ***

n 2022, the Argentinian inflation rate was 72.43%. Barrons reported that when Milei took office last December, “monthly inflation leapt by 25.5 percent after he devalued the peso by more than 50 percent. It has since been on a downward trajectory, coming in at under five percent each month since May. … Milei, who wielded a chainsaw on the campaign trail last year as a symbol of his plan to slash public spending, has cut energy and transport subsidies and thousands of public sector jobs.”

*** end quote ***

Hopefully DJT4547 is watching this success.

We can only hope.

There are so many great ideas floating about.  Someone once said, Regan I think, that a President can only try to accomplish three things.  I hope world peace, immigration, the Federal deficit / debt / inflation, and making elections like Florida are DJT4547’s three.  Yeah I know that’s four, but what’s one more when you have a mandate.

ENCOURAGING: A problem and a prescription to solve it (mostly)

Question for Trump to solve: Just how many million migrants did Joe let in? 8 million? 12? 15?
By Andrew Arthur 
Published Nov. 13, 2024, 7:35 p.m. ET

*** begin quote ***

President-elect Donald Trump has promised to crack down on the southern border and deport those here illegally.

But the million-dollar question left by the Biden administration: Just how many people is that?

A recent House Judiciary report says that “For almost four years, Americans have watched as President Joe Biden and border czar Vice President Kamala Harris have abandoned the southwest border and welcomed nearly 8 million illegal aliens into the United States.”

But that 8 million is likely an undercount — and perhaps by a lot.

The House Committee on Homeland Security estimated in the spring that there would have been 10 million encounters during Biden’s four-year term. And that doesn’t include “got-aways” — people who crossed illegally without ever talking to a Border Patrol agent.

There are, meanwhile, all kind of “parole” and other programs the Biden administration used without Congressional approval to fly immigrants in directly from South America and other parts of the world.

*** end quote ***

OK, so the answer is “a lot”.  Some proportion are criminals or neer’do’wells,  While the rest are a mix of those seeking a better life or some who want to collect on the dole.

How do we differentiate who is a “Priority One Removal” and who don’t we really care about?

Fortunately some really smart people have some great ideas.

Expediting Deportation, Using Carrots and Sticks
By Ned Barnett

<< EDITOR ADDED DATE 2024-11-13>>

*** begin quote ***

How do you deport the roughly twenty million individuals living illegally in the United States? For a lot of reasons, this will be a huge challenge, and likely a costly one – when was the last time the government did anything even remotely correct without it busting the budget?

Well, for one thing, you could try offering incentives for people to make their deportation easier than it might otherwise have been.  

First, offer them an option. Go home on your own, and you will be eligible to apply for legal residency, along with anyone else who wants to come to America and who hadn’t broken our laws to get here.

*** and ***

What about the stick? Tell this same population that if the government has to take actions to deport them, they will have to wait for more than the current ten years before even getting to the end of the line for legal immigration, lengthening the time before they can return to America, but this time as legal immigrants. 

*** end quote ***

And, the details outlined seem very reasonable.

Then DJT4547 and his team can focus on the criminals, welfare cheats, and sanctuary cities and NGOs.

I like this approach.  We’ll see how they tackle it.

TECHNOLOGY: Free dikw (i.e., data, information, knowledge, wisdom) from the internet and public ibraries

# – # – # – # – # 

While I don’t miss the traffic on Route 287 when I was working, I do miss having two or three or more hours listening to my self-improvement cassettes.  (Imagine how less “wonderful” I’d be if I hadn’t “improved” with all those great suggestions.  Laugh!).

If podcasts were available then, I could have saved a lot of money on cassettes.

I remember often griping about having to buy the same content to “upgrade” from cassette to cd. Especially if the tape broke or tangled.  Why did I have to pay to replace it? Argh!

And, today, audio content is available free from the local library via Libby or other open sources.

Anyway, here’s an “interesting” list of things that might be worth listening to.  Now, if I just had a long commute, treks from Fairfax VA to the Pepuls Republik of Nu Jerzee, or drives to and from Keene NH and NJ, I could “improve” even more  — if such was possible.

(Not too much ego?  Right!)

As always YMMV and FWIW,

ECONOMICS: Both tariffs and income taxes get paid out of the same pocket — yours

‘Everyone is calling’: Trump’s tariff threats send U.S. companies scrambling for lobbyists and loopholes
Published Tue, Nov 12 20244:08 PM EST
Updated Tue, Nov 12 20244:46 PM EST

Lora Kolodny

*** begin quote ***

Trump made universal tariffs a core tenet of his economic campaign pitch, floating a 20% tax on all imports from all countries with a specifically harsh 60% rate for Chinese goods.

*** end quote ***

It seems really simple  — tariffs or the IRS!

Both get the money from the same pocket  — we, the Taxpayers.

Without the income tax and the IRS, there’s no need for lobbyists and loopholes.  Pay when “stuff” comes in, no exceptions, and there is no need for an IRS,

We’ll still be paying.  Of course, there will be a period of adjustment.  Some prices will go up and some won’t.  We’d be changing the entire “incentive” structure back to one the Dead Old White Guys intended.

Of course, we should be very afraid on winding up with both!  That’s one of the arguments for any tax reform (i.e., flat tax; fair tax; national sales tax; etc. etc. Etc.).  

I’m not sure that One Fell Swoop (i.e., shut down the IRS and impose tariffs on the same day like February First) is the “best” implementation strategy but we drive on roads with potholes all the time.  So what.

I’d say: “Just Do It”.

VOCABULARY: Here’s dunkelflaute or why we can’t depend on wind or solar power

If you think Bitcoin is on fire, just wait for the natural gas boom
by James Hickman
on November 12, 2024

 *** begin quote ***

So, wind and solar are somewhat price competitive. But they carry a security risk: do you really want China manufacturing your entire power grid? Is it possible they built a kill switch in their software?

More importantly, they’re not terribly reliable. There are times (like night!) when the sun doesn’t shine. Germany (which generates nearly 60% of its power from renewable energy) recently experienced yet another dunkelflaute, i.e. a foggy, doldrum period in which there is neither sunshine nor wind.

*** end quote ***

Thanks Schiff Gold we know have another “loaned-word” from German.  Akin to a portmanteau, English is not afraid to borrow good words for a unique description.

In this case, what is wrong with wind and solar power  —  dunkelflaute!

TECHNOLOGY: An idea for a competive App store?

Monday, November 18, 2024

FROM: TLDR Information Security 2024-11-18

North Korean-Linked Hackers Were Caught Experimenting With New macOS Malware (2 minute read)

Three variants of a new macOS malware have been detected. One variant was written in Python, one in Golang, and one using Flutter, which heavily obfuscates code by default. The malware was embedded in a clone of Minesweeper. No evidence of exploitation has been found – the callback domain returns a 404. The malware appeared to target cryptocurrency developers. It had several of the hallmarks of a Lazarus group attack. 

# – # – # – # – # 

If someone would make an App Store that certified apps as “malware free”, then I bet they could make a lot of money.  I’d just surcharge the app’s price by a dollar or two.  Maybe even just charge a fraction of a bitcoin.

If I was younger and richer, then I’d try to exploit that niche.  Alternative App Stores to Google Play and Apple Apps Stores.  The EU and the US Gooferment are going to force Google and Apple to support alternatives.  So you have to make that alternative App Store have a significant value proposition.

NOTRECOMMENDED: Putting a child on an andriod phone

Monday, November 18, 2024

Tried to put him on two different android phones.

Apparently, “FAMILY LINK” doesn’t work.

I wind up with a device that constantly reboots.

I now have two devices that just reboot over and over again.

Maybe I’ll just buy him an obsolete iPhone.

SURVIVAL: How to NOT survive, don’t be ‘exhausted and ill-prepared’

Monday, November 18, 2024

https://www.sfgate.com/bayarea/article/california-search-team-rescues-hikers-19894482.php

Bay Area & State
Calif. search team rescues ‘exhausted and ill-prepared’ Mount Whitney hikers
By Sam Mauhay-Moore, Trending News Reporter Nov 7, 2024

*** begin quote ***

Inyo County’s Search and Rescue team has once again taken to social media to scold a set of hikers who needed assistance after being unable to summit Mount Whitney on Saturday. 

The two hikers began their trek on Friday evening with the intent to summit the mountain on Saturday, Inyo SAR posted on Facebook. Equipped with “150lbs of newly-purchased gear plus 5 gallons of water,” the pair made it 2.7 miles before stopping to camp on the trail at about 3 a.m. “They were exhausted, and one subject had two blisters and a bad headache,” Inyo SAR wrote. They later woke up to snowfall, with their shoes full of snow. 

The “exhausted and ill-prepared” hikers then called the search and rescue team for assistance, Inyo SAR wrote. 

*** and ***

Inyo SAR listed several things that went amiss before and during the incident, the first being the hikers “attempting Mt. Whitney without prior experience, proper preparation, or essential items such as a map, weather forecast, and bear canister.” Weather forecasts for that weekend predicted up to two feet of snow in the Sierra Nevada, and the U.S. Forest Service warns that fall conditions on the Mount Whitney trail often include hazardous pockets of snow and ice that require hiking with gear like crampons and ice picks. The Forest Service also recommends hikers train extensively before attempting to summit Whitney, as the 22-mile round trip hike is notoriously gnarly and includes over 6,000 feet of elevation gain. 

*** end quote ***

Did they say 150# of newly-purchased gear plus 5 gallons of water?

For the uninitiated in “survival”, 5 gallons of water is about 40#.   Go to your local supermarket and carry FOUR 10 pound sacks of spuds just to the checkout and you’ll get a sense of what that really means.

There’s a reason that USAF survival school, as well as private one, spend a lot of time talking about “weight”.  In a survival situation, you are urged to review everything you THINK you need and pare it down to what you must absolutely have.  Then take a short hike  —  in the military that’s FIVE miles  —  in the USMC that’s 20 or 30 miles  —  then reassess what you are carrying.  That’s why Amazon hawks “extra light weight” stuff of campling.

I’m glad the hikers survived and perhaps their story will educate everyone else.

Once again, I question “Who pays?”.   Certainly, it shouldn’t be the Taxpayer.  Perhaps, at these “attractive locations”, “rescue insurance” should be sold with big sign as to what an uninsured rescue will cost.  Maybe then we will have a lot less “rescues” needed!

CRYPTO: It may have been fraud, but savers did NOT diversify

Life Savings of an Entire Small Town Recovered from the Depths of Cryto-Scam, Thanks to FBI
By Andy Corbley – Nov 7, 2024

*** begin quote ***

A Wichita courtroom rang out with sobs and cheers when over two dozen people learned that their life savings had been recovered after being lost by a local bank.

Over $8 million in children’s university funds, retirement accounts, funds for eldercare, and bequeathments to children and grandchildren were returned after the FBI located and seized a cryptocurrency wallet linked to an account in the Cayman Islands.

The bank’s founder Shan Hanes, claims he had unintentionally lost it all by investing in a sophisticated cryptocurrency scam, though he ultimately lost his defense and received 24 years in prison for defrauding depositors and investors.

In August, Heartland Tri-State Bank was put into receivership by federal regulators after being drained of cash. The FDIC paid out $47 million to everyday depositors and other investors, but the rural, community-owned bank had 30 shareholders who had carefully planned long-term accounts that were not insured.

*** end quote ***

While I am happy that the insured depositors were made whole, they should have diversified their deposits.

One lady had 250k$ in one IRA account.  That far exceeds the risk she should be taking.  Four partial roll over accounts of 50k$ each would have mitigated her losses.  She was lucky to get it back.  Yeah, it makes for more paperwork, but look at the alternative,

There are accounts available with private insurance up to ¼ million last time I looked.

In short, having large sums of money requires you to take a modicum of care.

Don’t trust anyone.  (Even me!)  Verify!  Lawyers and accountants may seem expensive, but are cheap in the long run.

YMMV but I know what I do and preach.

POLITICAL: Bill Maher makes some good points but misses a couple I’d have liked to hear

Saturday, November 16, 2024

Bill Maher urges Democrats to ‘look in the mirror’ after Kamala Harris’ election loss
By Nicholas McEntyre 
Published Nov. 9, 2024, 5:08 a.m. ET

*** begin quote ***

Bill Maher slammed the Democratic party as “losers” and urged them to “look in the mirror” following Kamala Harris’ presidential election loss to President-elect Donald Trump.

Maher, who once predicted that Harris would win the election, revealed that he “did not vote for the winner,” but accepted the election results — unlike his late-night counterparts earlier in the week.

“We had an election,” Maher said during his “Real Time” monologue on HBO Friday night. “I did not vote for the winner, we’ll see what the winners do now. They won, now they have reality they have to deal with. We’ll see what they do.”

*** end quote ***

The lady Sarah Isgur made an excellent point about inflation. That everyone just breezed by and ignored. It is one thing to say “inflation is down”. But what is meant is that the rate is down. People are forced to look Iive with the inflated prices. Those prices n ever return to previous values. To real people see that is what they think of as inflation. As Bill Clinton famously told his team “it’s the economy, stupid”. And he was so right. People see the inflated prices as their economy. And the host and liberal guest just breezed by the crux of their “inflation problem”.  

Bil Maher made some other excellent points. 

  • The floating garbage in the ocean!
  • High stock market and low unemployment. 
  • The liberal condecension
  • The R’s became the party of the working man. 

But he did not:

  • The missing 15 million Biden voters proving the 2020 fraud
  • The perfidy of Harris and the D’s that Joe Biden was “sharp as a tack”
  • The media’s disinformation was against “We, The Sheeple”

Make no mistake Bill Maher is a liberal with whom I disagree a lot with.  But like Piers Morgan, I think he is an “honest” liberal who I can respect and listen too.  I don’t need an echo chamber.  Although where would a little L libertarian find one?  

There’s a meme going around Twitter and Facebook about political opinions.

Different opinions.Different opinions.

Now that I can get behind.  Different opinions but still can listen to what they say.

POLITICAL: Address “taxes” as the first priority

Friday, November 15, 2024

Trump’s Chance to Change Taxation
Cal Thomas | Nov 14, 2024

*** begin quote ***

If any constitutional amendment can be hated, it would be the 16th Amendment.

Passed by Congress in 1909 and ratified by the states in 1913, it allowed Congress to “levy income taxes without apportioning them among the states based on population.” At first the collection of revenue came from the very wealthy and in a small percentage, but World Wars I and II put the country in debt and Congress, using the power given to it by the 16th Amendment, began spreading the burden around until we arrived at our present moment when half the country and corporations are paying taxes (when state, local and other taxes are included, that amounts to more than half their income in states like California and New York). Half the people pay little or no federal income tax at all.

*** and ***

Younger workers would have freedom of choice (a phrase Democrats like when it comes to abortion, but oppose if it involves schools and the stock market). Workers could choose a new retirement system Forbes called Personal Retirement Accounts (PRAs).

Under his calculation, in 1999, younger workers could deposit 4 percentage points of their Social Security taxes into their own PRAs and increased their contributions as follows:

  • In 2003 – 5 percentage points.
  • In 2004 – 6 percentage points.
  • In 2005 – 7 percentage points.
  • In 2006 – 8 percentage points.

Forbes wrote that if his idea had been adopted, a single working mother who was 25 in 2000 and retires in 2040 could have earned a nest egg of $1.2 million in her PRA. She could then purchase an annuity that pays her$100,000 annually, nearly twice as much as she would receive under Social Security. A high school graduate who was 18 in 2000, Forbes wrote, and retires in 2040, would have a nest egg of $2 million.

Among the reasons Democrats have refused to reform Social Security and Medicare, both of which are projected to become insolvent in the 2030s without reforms, is politics. If they solve the problem, they lose the issue.

*** end quote ***

Let’s do both:

(1) Repeal the 16th Amendment and substitute tariffs.  (The Taxpayer pays for either.  But it changes the incentives.)

(2) Let “We, The Sheeple” put a small portion of their Social Security taxes  into the proposed Personal Retirement Accounts (PRAs) and allow a tax free rollover to an annuity at any future date,

This way we’ll get the best of both suggestions.

And, let’s enact the Flat Tax while we are repealing the 16th.

Then, we can repeal the 17th too.

How It Went
By John Gruber
Friday, 8 November 2024

*** begin quote ***

My mom died at the end of June this year.

I know, and I’m sorry — that’s a hell of a way to open a piece ostensibly about a depressing, worrisome, frightening election result. But here’s the thing I want to emphasize right up front: my mom’s death was OK. It really was. She was 78, which isn’t that old, but her health had not been great. She was hospitalized for several days in May, just a month prior, after she had collapsed at home, too weak to stand, and for days it wasn’t clear what was wrong. Then some more test results came back and we had the answer. She had ovarian cancer, bad. It had already metastasized. The prognosis was grim: months to live, at best. And those months, toward the end, would inexorably grow ever more painful and profoundly sad.

*** and ***

So, when my dad called me Tuesday morning, I thought it would be the election on his mind. It was all that was on my mind, that’s for sure. He had, in fact, just come back from voting, but it was something else. His voice was chipper, upbeat, but I could tell it wasn’t a good story. I know him too well.

Turns out, he had gone out to eat, by himself, Monday evening. In fact, at the very same restaurant where he and my mom ate their last meal together. He ate, drove home, and once home went to wash his hands before going to bed. That’s when he noticed his wedding band was missing from his finger.

It was lost.

He looked around to no avail, and went to bed without it. In the morning light, he retraced his steps. He felt certain he had it on while at the restaurant — not because he took any note of it while dining, but because he knows he’d have noticed its absence. If you wear a ring every day on the same finger, you know how true that is. He almost never took that ring off.

At some point when I was a little kid, my dad told me he had never once removed his ring since my mom put it on his finger at their wedding, the year before I was born. 

*** and ***

I told my wife about my dad’s ring and she almost burst into tears. She loves him so much. “He just lost your mom”, she said.

*** end quote ***

Maybe I’ve just had too much emotion this week.  A lot of deaths since last Thanksgiving, a lot of deaths of people near me, a lot of deaths of celebrities I “knew” as a child, and even deaths of fellow alumni I never knew.  Sigh!

In recounting the death of the author’s Mom, I could feel again the pain that it brings. Sadness can be overwhelming.

Not sure what lesson to take away from this.  

But one can NOT wallow in self-pity.  It happens to everyone everywhere in every age.

“My love, were it in my power, I would sadly grant thee this boon. But, we have to continue to follow His Plan for us. Let’s go forth and speak no more of this. Who ever is last will be last. It will be His choice; not ours. We’re but humble custodians of His temple on earth. It’s not our place to trump His plan. Whatever that plan be, know that I will be with you to my last breath.” — character “John” in CHURCH 10●19●62 Volume 2 Page 399

That’s all I can say now. “Who ever is last will be last.”

INTERESTING: The Japanese don’t give children tests until Fourth Grade.  Maybe they are on to something?

Thursday, November 14, 2024

FROM 1440

A Timeline for Teeth

Humans’ tendency toward long childhoods may have evolved earlier than previously thought, a new study found, potentially even predating our large brain sizes. The study challenges the prevailing hypothesis the two evolved simultaneously.

The study, published yesterday in Nature, centers on the 1.8-million-year-old fossil of a roughly 11-year-old child discovered in Dmanisi, Georgia. Researchers studied X-rays of the child’s molar teeth to identify stress lines and nutritional patterns, which they used to create a visual timeline of the child’s dental development (see video).

The study suggests the child experienced slow early dental growth, relying on milk teeth for the first five years of life. Because the child belonged to a Homo species with only slightly larger brains than modern chimpanzees, the authors say long childhoods—in which humans rely on parents, grandparents, and other adults for support—may have predated humans’ ability to grow larger brains. 

Learn about long childhoods and the human brain here (w/video).

# – # – # – # – # 

I found this an “interesting” factoid.  Not sure what to make of it or how we use it in child rearing.  Maybe children have to be allowed to be children a little longer.  I’ve read that the Japanese don’t give children tests until Fourth Grade.  Maybe they are on to something?
