Well, I know personally the elder care is a factor. My wife and I, because of proximity even though there are siblings involved, became the default caretakers for my parent-in-laws. My mother-in-law's doctor is doing the same thing. While her parents lived in the Bay Area, CA, the cost is too much to sustain even with their retirement savings and her medical professional salary. So she's trying to move her parents closer as well for the same proximity reason.
For it to be the driving factor, I agree, but there’s a whole bundle that comes from staying close to home and it might be seeming increasingly attractive.
Having a built in social network and backup childcare, amongst so many other benefits, is a huge value that people generally overlook.
“white hat” hacker
I definitely agree that nobody used that correctly. a "whitehat" would be taking [only an agreed share] with permission after either disclosing the vulnerability privately, or even getting contracted for pentesting.
Is it starvation or greed?
my comment was general; starvation makes otherwise moral people disregard previously held morality...
They took 400 BTC. They could have kept 1 BTC
... and then greed comes into play.
That’s fair. I definitely lifted it from someone else, who used it about libertarianism instead of bitcoin.
New Browns Dome Rising in Brook Park With a 75% Local Workforce Goal
USD/BTC = $75,821
Block 975,092
Construction is underway on the new domed Cleveland Browns stadium in Brook Park, Ohio. The surrounding development includes a hotel and a music venue, and parking plans are being revised while the final development plan still waits on approval. A top construction manager on the project says the build is on schedule, with opening expected in 2029.
FOX8's I Team went looking for the jobs picture. Turner Construction VP Taurean Spratt said the project team is still finalizing the actual job count, with worker recruitment as the focus for next year and outreach events planned for people who want construction site work. The stated goal: a workforce that is 75% local.
The money is big even by stadium standards. Haslam Sports Group has now topped 52,756 BTC ($4B) in sports facility investment across Ohio, a figure that also counts the Browns training complex expansion in Berea, development around the Columbus Crew complex, and a new women's soccer facility in Columbus.
The State of Ohio awarded 7,913 BTC ($600M) from unclaimed funds to help build the stadium. That money is tied up in a court challenge expected to run into next year. Browns co owner Jimmy Haslam says it changes nothing about the plan and that he believes the funds will come through.
The jobs number is the one to watch. A 75% local goal sounds great, but it only means something once the final count lands and the hiring starts.

Have you ever read the Bitfinex Freedom Manifesto?
Words are wind, but these are nice words all the same.
We have always been redundant. Nowadays it just sped up a lot.
I am self employed and have never started a "traditional" pension (the netherlands), as it will be robbed anyway. But home is almost paid off, no debt other then the bit for my house. We will manage just fine.
Issue is, the rest will not be fine and will be coming to your (and my) door once shtf... they will be trying to take our shit
the new Ocarina of Time is insanely detailed, loving it so far
