>But to put it in context, the rail company is reporting $5M in losses from theft last year, on $5.56B in revenue, or 0.1% of revenue. Not ideal but not massive either.

No, that's what they said. The exact quote was "the increase in crime cost the company at least $5 million last year" (emphasis mine)

>> Cybercrime damage cost is said to reach $6 trillion annually in 2021.

But US GDP is only 20.94 trillion. You're saying that the US is losing more than a quarter of its GDP to "Cybercrime damage"? I feel like the numbers you presented might be a bit inflated.
Changing a single pixel at a time wasn't a common operation in the 80s when the Amiga was popular.

The main class of application that would have used single-pixel modifications would be paint-style programs, and the cpu was generally fast enough to keep up with user input.

There are advantages to planar graphics that can help applications too. Being able to dynamically change the number of bitplanes based on an application's color requirements both saves ram and increases cpu performance.

It wasn't really until about 1992 that the lack of chunky graphics really became a liability, with the rise of 3D games like Doom and various multimedia applications, like streaming video off CD-ROM and more advanced productivity apps. If Amiga had actually delivered the AAA chipset in 1993 with it's various chunky graphics modes, maybe the platform would have survived.

Ah, on further reading it looks like there are a couple parts to it.

I have only used the "Sign in with Apple" feature directly in apps, which only ever lets you create one for that app.

However, apparently with an iCloud+ subscription, you can generate arbitrary email addresses from within iCloud itself, and then use those wherever you like.

I believe that you know people who are being let go. I don't believe that those people can't find any new jobs that pay more than minimum wage.
Any dog of substantial size can be “a dangerous dog”. I have owned two American Bulldogs and 1 “pit bull” and they were all well-trained and probably overly friendly. My cat has done more damage to me and to the dogs. The only dog that isn't potentially "potentially dangerous" are probably ones like the small breeds like chihuahuas and Pekingese. It really is 90% training/how-they're-raised and 10% genetics. Don't get a dog unless you can make him/her a part of your pack/family. Cats are much better if you just want a pet to chill with.
Windows is signed with different keys to all other third party UEFI code, so in theory you could ship a system that trusted Windows but not anything else. "Anything else" would include the option ROMs on GPUs, so you'd never be able to plug in a new Nvidia, but if that's a price you're willing to pay you could definitely block Linux today.

Actually youre the one with the simplistic, black and white thinking so please lay off the lazy slurs.

Gender has an enormous impact on the human body so the idea that the brain (the most important organ of all) is 100% neutral and unaffected by gender is simply
ridiculous.

To try to argue this is pure ideology. Anyone with a bit of commonsense and life experience would agree.

For anyone interested Harald Eia (Norwegian comedian) has done some interesting videos on the topic.

It might be a conversation for another time, but dog bite cases are a staple of basic tort claims. Plenty of recourse - an owner is responsible for any reasonably foreseeable harm caused by their animal.

Doesn't stop certain obnoxious owners from taking their animals where they really ought not, etc.
At least a Bayesian posterior tries to describe reality. In a way which is consistent with the prior and the data. But again, GIGO. Including prior information into the inferential process will be beneficial if it's correct but detrimental if it isn't. Hardly surprising.

On the other hand, Frequentist methods do not claim anything concrete about reality. Only about long-run frequencies in hypothetical replications.

You may think that makes them better, it's your choice.

Indeed if there were a standard format, there would be competitive advantages to using other channels to showcase your experience
This trend will benefit big companies and harm small local companies.

Hiring abroad is not as easy as you might think, usually you need to establish legal presence in the other country and other requirements. And who has resources to do that? Bingo, big companies. Small local companies will be left unable to compete, as they will be forced to hire locally, at higher expense.
Nothing, but if you try to create 1000 of such emails you’ll get banned by Google.
The degree of under reporting can and does change through time. If you have a pro crime pro criminal DA like Chesa Boudin people respond to that. People report less crimes if they know nothing will be done. If they know stopping crime isn't a priority police are less likley to do anything to stop it.

People respond to incentives. Incentives vary over time.
What policies are you talking about? The urban decay is happening in cities like LA, SF, NY and not places like Texas or Florida.
Yes, my argument is a little muddled by grouping retail and supply chain theft together. I definitely think supply chain theft is somehow more serious.

But grouping the two together is a result of the recent San Francisco story being mentioned in this thread. People here on HN are usually so critical of the media, but this LA train story and the San Fran shoplifting story were both treated as a symptom of some larger societal problem. And maybe they are! But that is not at all evident from the stories.

In my opinion, both symptoms are the result of a decades long brutal drive for absolute efficiency in both supply chains and retail stores. And of course organized criminals are going to take advantage of the fact that perhaps that "efficiency" went too far in cutting security.
Heh, I've grown up with exactly these racks... Countless of hours hanging clothes on these. ;)
Given that Omicron is assumed to have replicated in an animal population (mice) for a year, we should expect there to be other variants in animals. Even if we managed to vaccinate all humans at the same time, we'd likely see a new breakout a year or so down the line when immunity wanes in the human population.

Covd19 has been endemic for two years now. And it will be endemic until we find better vaccines. At that point, we'll probably be ready to wipe out the flu as well.
Downside is when you have to make slight changes each time to better emphasize some aspect of your experience, depending on the job applied for. Recruiting agencies often do this to sex up their candidates chance of winning the job lottery.
Only if this trade off is important enough to dedicate time to it. Good engineering is the balancing of trade offs, including the available amount of time.

A term lie craftsman engineering might be appropriate - someone who goes over and above the requirements because they can afford the time necessary to fulfill their personal aesthetic.
Do you somehow think that creating a containment system works in solving crime? It alienates and breeds recidivism. We can’t lock everyone up for life.
That sounds like an incredibly unsettling experience.
PSB is there to protect you from a compromised motherboard it protects you from malware in your UEFI firmware. It's not even a vendor lock in it's signing key lock in that is used in that manner by AWS, Gcloud and Azure.

Largest type of theft in the US is wage theft[1]. Workers lose billions every year to wage theft[2].

Not much point in working if the salary is consumed by childcare and commuting costs, assuming that childcare is available. This is why many countries have or are trying to set up inexpensive daycare to allow both partners to participate in the workforce. Currently, there is a double whammy with older workers deciding to exit the workforce and women (the traditional carer) being unable to get back into it. Throw in young folks reconsidering their options and there’s whole sections of the job market (retail, service) sucking wind.
This seems to generalise just as much as you accuse ‘people who lash out at right wing thinking’ of doing. There are plenty of people who dislike right wing ideas and comprehend that other people make different value judgements. And it’s far from clear that precisely all of them ‘have no fucking clue’—or even what that means: is this some balance fallacy nonsense?
Because there's no demand for it. The vast majority of people who read and write resumes have no idea what an "open standard" is, and would be unable to create or read any resume that used such a format.

They need the software to be built first. But the software won't be built unless there is demand for it.
unless it's wage theft. That's pretty much a constant for a lot of self respecting capitalists.

It’s just bouncing between db fields on exchanges. Nobody seriously pays for anything in ETH or ERC20 tokens. The exchanges have all been insolvent for ages due to eth fees. Take a look, mostly it’s exchanges burning 3x gas of the value of the tokens. Lol.
I don’t think it is for this discussion. You could put any pattern around it that doesn’t soon destroy this pattern (I would pick one that eventually destroys it. That takes away any possible misunderstanding about this pattern being indestructible)

Also, I think there’s no animation that shows the special property of this pattern.

Yes, you could show a grid with all other possible 30 × 24 cell grids, iterate over one iteration, and then show none of them evolves to the given pattern, but that grid would be way, way, way, too large (and that’s an under-, under-, understatement) for that to pop out (that’s a scientific term. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_search#Feature_search) to our visual system.

Not my experience, I reported a typo in a minor Git sub-dialog in VS, and it was triaged, fixed and released in VS2022. Happy days!
It still seems we're talking about completely different things, or maybe you're trying to derail the conversation...

Both ML-based processing and tonemapping take place after demosaicing to produce the final JPEG. RAW capture is just your typical laplacian pyramid stacking/exposure fusion with motion compensation and sensor-specific calibration. That's the main contributing factor that somewhat compensates for the sensor size, not some kind of ML processing. If you think that ML is somehow involved here, I have zero idea where you are getting it from. The entire point of pre-demosaicing pipeline is to robustly converge the captured stack into a neutral scene-referred baseline with provably better SNR and precise photometric parameters. And that's what you get in a resulting DNG, not some neural tonemapped RGB image (which is not even created at this point).

Perhaps you should look at the pipeline yourself, here's the source code for a typical "computational imaging" camera app that produces stacked RAWs, for example. [1] And here's what Google Camera does [2] [3] (you can ignore everything that comes after demosaicing). Google's particular method is also partially implemented for arbitrary RAWs as third-party software, so you can stack any burst capture from your camera with the same method smartphones do. [4] (there's much less benefit for normal sized sensors, for obvious reasons)

flights.groupby("month").head(2)

Not only is does this have all the same keywords, but it is organized in a much clearer way to newcomers and labels things to look up in the API. Whereas your R code has a leading comma, .SD, and a mix of quotes and non-quotes for references to columns. You even admit the last was confusing to learn. This can all be crammed in your head, but not what I would call thoughtfully designed.

I have a VoIP number that I ported from an actual cellphone carrier, so that it isn't normally flagged as part of a VoIP phone number range.

At least I can turn it "off" when I don't expect a phone call or text message.
So does RFC 8032. So do PKCS #1 and #7. It is every bit as easy and well defined to say “put a PKCS #7 message in PEM form in a header” or “put a base64-encoded RFC 8032 message in a header” as it is to say “put a JOSE message in a header”.

There is no need for a special standard explaining with great verbosity how to glue existing standards that already fit together just fine. Especially when the standard tells you how to do it wrong as JOSE does.

Drying by using fusion power from the sun is convenient only if you live in a warm climate mostly in southern Europe.

And since humans, who are also the beneficiaries of this, are in the position to decide if the tradeoff is acceptable - the fact that they so often do is a morally problematic.

It doesn't mean we have to change everything and start dying to save pigs' lives. But we should debate it. And if it's morally wrong can we at least call it what it is.

Ask the beneficiaries of a process if they this it's good, and the usually say it is. Doesn't mean they are right.
Ah yes. Because with "programmable money" we now have untrusted intermediaries: programmers who code scammy contracts (at the very least you'll need those intermediaries).

And don't forget those who code the wallets, and the exchanges, and the people who will convert your tokens into actual money you can buy stuff with...

Ah, it's so good to finally get rid of these "trusted intermediaries like PayPal, Visa, a bank..."

Oh wait, my money is gone, how do I revert the transaction?...

This isn't too bad - usually these articles include a laundry list of features to make language X into Java: exceptions, Java-like standard library so you nominally only have to do "business logic", traits, Java-style generics. You know, like PHP is doing to itself. But this article advocates for a more moderate, Go-philosophy-consistent set of changes. Except for the "range should generate references" one - "range" pre-generates values so that there's some thread-safety when looping, other choices mean a C++ style abbatoir when it comes to iteration.
DOJ doesn't have jurisdiction outside of the US, but scammers are routinely extradited to the US to face criminal prosecution for their cybercrimes, and the US works in tandem with foreign governments to catch those criminals.
Famine was first eliminated in 1800 by the US with its free market agriculture. Collective farms have never succeeded in providing sufficient food.

And because my TCP/IP stack is 16-bit code, it probably won't work for your system. It's just a DOS program that has an interrupt service routine that the other programs can call.

> adding namespaces to your format

Granted, in the case of XMPP (but I'm no expert here) they might have overused namespaces with all those protocol extensions (XEPs) using their own NS. XML namespaces are one of the few additions on top of SGML and might've looked like a good idea at a time when many new vocabularies were expected, but they're controversial even among those who introduced them. Eg consider the following key quote from [1]:

> On the one hand, the pain that is caused by XML Namespaces seems massively out of proportion to the benefits that they provide. Yet, every step on the process that led to the current situation with XML Namespaces seems reasonable.

[1]: https://blog.jclark.com/2010/01/xml-namespaces.html
