They built up the herd size by growing alfalfa in the desert by pumping water from ancient aquifers. They have used up a significant portion and now import over 80% of their feed. They need to import 100% of the feed to meet their needs as their water dries up.
They bought ground in Arizona because it is grown in conditions like what they have experience with. They have been using the same alfalfa varieties.
During the Dotcom and subprime crashes, the federal government had some semi-compentant beaurocrats to mitigate the effects and speed recovery. There was also multiple countries that worked together to mitigate the issues.
Today the AI bubble is much more massive than either of the previous. All of the fundamentals of the economy are weakened due to trade wars and international cooperation is unlikely. The effective beaurocrats have been laid off due to doge and other shenanigans.
Back a long time ago I ended up in meetings with Mount Olive. There I met one of the plant managers in North Carolina. He gave me a tour of the pickle plant. Of course between the sound of the equipment, his gnarly thick southern accent, and the giant wad of chew in his mouth, I have no fucking clue what he said.
Oh and don't eat the relish. Seriously just don't. The things I saw that went into the relish...
It was designed so that wealthy landowners could attend sessions more easily. Just like the u.s. senate does not represent the population, but the land area. The writers of the national and state constitutions were almost all wealthy landowners.
In my opinion, given the size of the population and the complexity of the economy, full time politicians who are paid very well combined with draconian anti-graft laws are needed.
Most elected positions don't pay enough in the U.S. today. This is expecially true in state legislature where most politicians start before attempting a national run. The only people who can afford to run for underpaid positions are either independently wealthy or corrupt. For example let's look at some of the most corrupt states in the U.S.
Texas - state senators & representatives $7,200 salary and $221/per diem when in session.
Louisiana- senator and representatives $16,800 + $178/per diem and $6000 slush fund.
Utah - state senators and representatives $0 salary and $301/per diem.
Nevada - State senators and representatives $0 salary and $130/per diem.
This lack of pay for positions is deliberate to keep "working class" out of government. It lead to open corruption and conflict of interest being normalized.
Your coworkers called it out but you did not. So the aggressors thought "you are fine with it."
Social nuances are difficult to manage. When social ribbing goes to far you have to learn to set limits.
The key is to show that you are displeased with their behavior and address it immediately.
"What the hell, not cool."
"That's an asshole thing to say."
"That's not necessary."
"That's inappropriate"
Non-verbally you can just give them a stare, then frown, and slowly shake your head. Treat them like a naughty child getting in trouble with the teacher.
Once you communicate your limits, it sets boundaries for them to be comfortable with.
If they don't stop. You can get much more aggressive.
"Just a moment, my lawyer wants me to write down what you say as soon as I can for the harassment lawsuit." Said with a big innocent smile, this scares the shit out of most people.
I am totally okay with doing this but he needs a catchy nickname to replace it in history. So that his actions can be taught about but not have the fame that Hitler enjoys.
I took a brief look at the comment section. Now that is the definition of internet toxicity.
I did get a good laugh at the idiots saying "cut off their inheritance!" The millions that my parents have now in no way, change my mind about contacting them. You couldn't pay me enough to put up with their bullshit.
N. Korea has a military of around 1.3 million active plus another 6 million in different reserves. They need tens of thousands of experienced trainers to modernize their military.
If you don't give a fuck about the losses, this is a brutally efficient manner in going about it.
Government bonds rates are usually linked to inflation. Over the past 5 years, inflation on the ruble has averaged 17% per year. That's the problem. The buyers want the 10 year bonds to be at 17-18%. There's all sorts of issues with this for the government.
I would suspect that a few oligarchs are going to mysteriously run afoul with Putin in the next few months. Confiscating their assets will fill the hole in the budget for a little while.
My apologies, I missed a warning on your other post:
The entire seed industry is notoriously and historically full of fraudsters. Most countries have enacted laws to protect the farmers/gardeners from this fraud. There is also a bunch of international treaties on the subject.
The most egregious larger fraudsters are usually caught. However small packet mail fraud with online retailers is rampant.
600,000 dairy cows...

So it's going to be bad, like really, really bad.
Let's see what requirement in parenting skills/knowledge are in order to have kids.
Requirements to have children:
Functional gonads.
P in V sex.
Not quite 10 months incubation time. (Yeah the 9 months is a lie got repeated several times the last few weeks before delivery by my wife).
Welp that sums it up: No parenting skills or knowledge required.

Dude, everyone I show this too loves this feature. It's such a simple solution to an ongoing issue.

I think that security robots are a bad choice as a deterent.
Say someone takes an axe to a security robot and chops it up. That's just property damage and vandalism. Not that too severe of a crime.
Do the same with a security guard and it's murder and an extreme amount of prison time.
So the AI firms are getting a much better deterent for having a bored (possibly inebriated) breathing human walking around.

The lobbiest are going to be awfully pissed that someone else is writing laws.

You guys have never been on a dairy.
That's 2563 obviously. They cropped out the ear tag.

First time I was flying into Santiago, I was amazed when we hit 3,000m and looked way up at the mountains out the window.
I just died.
It goes back much further into ancient Egypt.

I am no-communication with my parents for 10 years now.
Next time I see them, I plan to do a little jig on their graves.
The sent 10,000 originally. 6,000 of them were casualties.
3,000 of the survivors were sent back as trainers.
The remaining 1,000 survivors and a fresh wave of 10,000 were sent to the front to bring the total to around 11,000 this spring.
