Minus the baby not being strapped in for turbulence, it’s a unique way to travel with a child. It kind of reminds me of the mini cots on trains.

You spent your life savings on bitcoin mining equipment when it had already peaked and was no longer profitable to mine using GPUs.

Don't really have room to call out someone's education.

It should be legal to ship babies to the destination you are going. Just slap a fragile sticker on it.
A Brief History of Children Sent Through the Mail
quote:

One of the most overlooked, yet most significant innovations of the early 20th century might be the Post Office’s decision to start shipping large parcels and packages through the mail. While private delivery companies flourished during the 19th century, the Parcel Post dramatically expanded the reach of mail-order companies to America’s many rural communities, as well as the demand for their products. When the Post Office’s Parcel Post officially began on January 1, 1913, the new service suddenly allowed millions of Americans great access to all kinds of goods and services. But almost immediately, it had some unintended consequences as some parents tried to send their children through the mail.

“It got some headlines when it happened, probably because it was so cute,” United States Postal Service historian Jenny Lynch tells Smithsonian.com.

Just a few weeks after Parcel Post began, an Ohio couple named Jesse and Mathilda Beagle “mailed” their 8-month-old son James to his grandmother, who lived just a few miles away in Batavia. According to Lynch, Baby James was just shy of the 11-pound weight limit for packages sent via Parcel Post, and his “delivery” cost his parents only 15 cents in postage (although they did insure him for $50). The quirky story soon made newspapers, and for the next several years, similar stories would occasionally surface as other parents followed suit.

You could've just said you were poor and we'd never run into each other because I'm not trashy enough to fly Delta.
