He certainly was an interesting person. It was always amazing the degree to which law enforcement prosecuted his hacking and cracking, when it seems like much more impactful crimes involving computers go uninvestigated. Plenty of people are hounded by threats of violence into leaving their jobs and homes, that seems far more impactful than Mitnick's crimes.

And FYI, while he died unexpectedly young, a 57-year-old man in the US has only a 50% chance of living to see their child reach 23 years of age. I, personally, wouldn't feel comfortable risking leaving a child with a likelihood of dealing with my death at that relatively young age.

> a 57-year-old man in the US has only a 50% chance of living to see their child reach 23 years of age

Perhaps a clearer way to put it: a 57-year-old man in the US has a 50% chance of living to 80, which doesn't seem quite as shocking of a statement.

How many men are having their first child at 57? I’ll be well under 57 when my oldest child is 23.

I'm not sure what that has to do with the parent comment.

I on the other hand, don't understand why that first comment brought up children at all. Did Kevin have his first kid at 57?

The third sentence of the linked article tells us that his wife is pregnant.
