There are thresholds at which it becomes a felony, so that might be an answer to your question. Otherwise we have to ask it the other way as well -- should the police send out a detective if your 99 cent fidget spinner goes missing?

> If the item has its own mobile network, i'm expecting an extra $20/mo for a phone plan (at which point, comparing to a fixed cost of an AirTag isn't valid.)

Some phone plans will give you additional data only sim card and only charge you the cost of the bandwidth (Google Fi does this). You can also get data only plans that are intended to used with Vending Machines and IoT devices (I guess a tracking device on the Internet is a IoT device).
The expected value of insurance is also negative (it has to be, or else insurance companies wouldn't be able to pay their expenses), but people buy it for the same reason: the rare payoff is life-altering, while the much more common cost doesn't make much difference in comparison.
It's not all that different in Europe. I think most drivers get home around once a month or so, so more frequently than in the US. But while on the road, they also sleep in their trucks.
The people who write these kinds of papers, believe it or not, prefer to spend most of their time playing with numbers compared to watching Netflix. (This is not to say that they don't enjoy spending any time on the latter.)
Thought this would be good for a solar IoT camera then realized it would be $400/per gig. Yikes, though it's good for extremely low bandwidth devices.

Um, the fact I've told any semi-non-competent person to buy iPhone because it very specifically won't screw up like the popup ridden land of Android.

That's definitely over the line. Theft of a laptop or bicycle is one thing, but home invasion is a violent crime, and should justify a far more significant amount of attention.

Question:

If device is jailbroken, and you apply root limit and other things to break standard features. Would it make it harder to exploit an ios?

I would imagine you can do default hardening like modifying the software version label so when the software queries it will be unable to automatically "arm" itself and apply persistence.

Are there any packages/places where this is already discussed?

If not, then I guess I will pick up some older iphone devices and play along - because it seems to be a great point - I highly doubt there is much sophistication in these malwares and there has to be some sanity checks that make it so that if you are targetted it will not "reveal" itself.

And of course the basic one of VPN, and forcing to change the DNS servers which the ios devices operates on.
I agree they're a little bit safer than unregulated or so called "algorithmic stablecoins". But they're still commercial-grade debt, not bank deposits or money market funds. You may as well invest into junk bonds.

Their ERC20 contracts are backdoor-ed, so the issuer may in some cases will be able to recover stolen funds, but I'm not sure it will help if the issues itself will go bankrupt, and pure-play Crypto companies like Gemini or Circle are high risk of going under, for example in case of crypto crash or regulatory change.
Eastbound on Interstate-40 on the eastern slope of the Appalachians the truck speed limit at the top of the pass is 35mph and there are very, very many warning signs including radar-activated lights. There are also three or four runaway-truck ramps (filled with loose gravel) that are somewhat frequently used, and often trucks pulled over to the side to let their brakes cool.

(The Rockies have even more of this sort of thing, but I haven't been out there in quite a while. :-( )
Many utilities will do this based not on the amperage to the house but the peak kw used in a billing cycle - a capacity charge. This helps incentivize reduced peak usage. In your scenario it's strange because you have zero incentive to keep your maximum usage below the breaker amount, other than the per-kwh cost.
so can you use this as a loophole to print inordinate amounts of solana? confused how they inflated the supply
It becomes everyones user experience when every big company only offers their software on their own app store so they don't have to pay anyone else a cut.

The GPS was also required for time sync for interconnectivity with the cellular network, to my understanding.
Macs offer the option to run apps without any sandboxing whatsoever – meaning an app can run totally unrestricted and read, modify, or delete any file of any other app, including most system files.

We’re not asking for that on iOS.

So there’s no reason to think you’ll ever need "6 apps pre-installed designed purely to prevent malware/viruses” on your phone.

I've used passthru on the Quest 2 with a browser window hanging in my living room. There absolutely is an allure to having a tv as big as my wall playing a youtube video while I'm folding a mountain of laundry. Working, serious work it's a bit of a stretch at this moment yeah

These are usually pretty small spaces. So heating them isn't that much of an problem. And going from 22 to 80 for a few hours a week or day isn't too wasteful.

Believe it or not, these thresholds have effectively existed in the US forever. It's why we have small claims courts, misdemeanors vs felonies, traffic violations, etc.

> What's the threshold over which you believe crime is no longer okay?

You completely missed the parent's point. It's not that they don't think crime should be "no longer be okay", it was addressing the the grandparent's point of "we're living in a third world country because my $200 AirPods got stolen" is simply out of touch with reality.

> Does someone have to burn my house down for it to be worthwhile for the police?

In third world countries this is pretty much how it works. As an American, going to Brazil or South Africa (for example), you're basically told "don't wear/carry anything of value". It's not that there is a chance that you'll get mugged, it's that it's likely it'll happen. I live in Austin and carry my AirPods on me all of the time. The likelihood that I experience what the OP experienced is so unlikely that it rarely crosses my mind. The grandparent's comment is hyperbolic drivel.

When they say 'Developed' nations are the major CO2 emission contributors per capita due to their unsustainable lifestyle I think of this graph:

https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/co-emissions-per-capita?t...

The split is almost bi-modal, not pointing fingers but this bundling seems a little bit of an unfair generalization, not all nations pollute alike.
I worked in network engineering for geostationary two way satellite for years and have been a starlink beta customer for over a year now. I also have some inside info from network engineering folks in WA state that I can't disclose here.

If one fully understands the economics of geostationary it helps to better understand the tech behind starlink. I don't rule out the possibility that it goes bankrupt and ends up in a situation like the 2nd corporate incarnation of iridium, but the tech works great.
All true, but this was not what was sold to the general public. Had people been informed that the latest vaccines against COVID-19 behaved similarly to rhe seasonal shots people get for regular flue season, a vast majority of the public would have opted out, as they do with the seasonal versions. This was further compounded by the aggressive dismissal and censorship of natural immunity and preventive care (good diet, exercise, vitamins, etc). We are here today because the obvious was politicized.
also worth stating that Israel has compulsory military service, so a huge number of computer geeks, like you and me, will get into this service for the mandated time rather than the more physical and distasteful alternatives. It's (i imagine) like an enforced first year MIT cyber security course for the majority of people in that service.

In summary, the label of belonging to them means not that much in reality - rather one should look at length of service, age of entry and any subsequent / previous activities when they leave. (basically like any other cybersecurity job, really)
My question is less about security by obscurity, and more "how does solana/wormhole move forward"?

Would node administrators accept a non-OSS (or post-adoption open sourcing) patch, and run it on their nodes trusting the devs until adoption is wide enough to prevent exploitation?

It seems like blockchains could be in a pickle where bugfixes will inherently get exploited if they aren't released obscurely, but their users wont tolerate obscurity.
Pretty much all Apple has to do to keep apps in App Store in the face of competition is drop their fees to less than 10% for all apps and drop bullshit like "you can't even link to your website if it lets users pay from there", and almost everyone except the most brazen will stay on App Store.

We'll see what actually happens but I personally I doubt that Apple values user experience more than it values gouging developers for profit. The Apple that would, is long gone.
How is it interesting for them to fulfill their fiduciary responsibility to individual retail user? Banks do this all the time.

If I remember right the pollutants they're talking about are not CO2. The fuel oil that these big ships use is pretty sulfury and dirty and makes a lot of NOx, and that's the sort of stuff that the statistics refer to. They also don't use catalytic converters or some such similar tech.

Some environmental coverage likes to omit this level of detail and it makes them sound extra extra horrendous.

Show HN: I developed a website to find books similar to my kid's favorite
I built this ReactJS/Ruby on Rails single page web app out of personal need. My son wanted a book like “Curious George” but I didn’t have a good way to find one. The tool allows you to flip through pages of books for online previews.
I would take that stat with a huge grain of salt. According to the original source[1], of the 40% of people who couldn't easily pay the expense, 43% say they would put the expense on a credit card and pay the credit card over time. So the reality is that most people already have a balance on their card, and would put any surprise expenses on their card and continue to make the payments which they can afford. Less than %2 of all credit cards are delinquent, so it seems most people are affording their monthly payments just fine.

Also, in the article you linked, they mention that the same stat for households making $100k+ a year is 17%. 17% of people making 6 figures don't have $400 saved??? If people are unable to save 0.4% of their income, no amount of economic growth will help them.

This is a combination of the uselessness of self reported statistics, poor budgeting skills, and ambiguous questions.

"Omicron doesn’t confer great immunity against delta"

It is my impression that it actually does, and that is why Delta was outcompeted so fast. If it didn't, both strains would likely co-circulate together.
I agree, "defunding" (at least when it actually means more than reform) is more of an emotional outburst than a solution to anything. People have a right to be emotional over what policing has become, but kicking and screaming alone is counterproductive. If we really want to reform the police we're going to have to be prepared to invest more money into it than ever since we'll need massive amounts of training, data collection, firings following by new hires, and oversight. None of that is going to be cheap.
Wow, I am so sorry. Thank you for sharing part of Melanie's story.

Your thought about the drugs maybe limiting the effect of the CAR-T is an interesting one and the subject of ongoing investigation. One common drug used for CAR-T related cytokine release syndrome, tocilizumab, does not appear to have negative effects on CAR-T proliferation or efficacy. However, it doesn't seem to do as much for neurotoxicity (which seems to be a separate mechanism from the cytokine system), and they often have to resort to steroids for that. Steroids do dampen T-cell activity, but to what degree that impacts CAR-T effectiveness is not clear. However, as you mention, sometimes you are left without much choice.
Well, the game has certainly changed a lot since then, as it's under very active development: see the latest dev log from Jan 18, 2022: [1] More here: [2]

Now the game has not just life support, but four different life support systems. You will need one or the other of them when you're doing different things.

I just get all four of them upgraded as much as possible whenever I can, and don't really worry about which one is for which as I pretty much always have enough no matter what I am doing.

Though, whether you actually have to worry about a particular life support system will depend on how you play. For example, if you wanted to go mining for fuel from a star early on, or you happened to go in to particularly hazardous star systems early on, then you'd definitely feel your lack of a particular type (or multiple types) of life support.

The way I played last time (where I got far enough that the game basically stopped being a challenge to me) was that I'd stayed within safe star systems and just upgraded my ship as much as possible, focusing on mining at first, then combat and that let me upgrade pretty much everything to max and buy the most expensive star ships.

I didn't get in to having multiple ships and mercs, nor in building structures or manufacturing or refining, so there was still a lot more to do when I got bored, but that was after dozens of hours and lots of fun up to that point... and by the time I got done I could go in to the most hazardous star systems (or even up to stars to mine their fuel) without worry about my life support.

If anything, survival is a little too easy and mechanical in this game.

Expectations of professionalism, software quality, process, and so on are all a matter of context. I'm not sure a FOSS web framework gets DQed for a quickly-rectified mistake. The expectations aren't that high and can't be that high.
Yeah, they should have done it this way. Even today a combined BASIC / OS shell would be useful. BASIC would be the shell language.

But how do pass arguments to commands that are in BASIC variables? Like:

DEL A$

Needs quoting work..
sounds suspicious how the hack occurred an hour after update, and all the funds restored as if nothing happened. Inside job or someone was tipped off? Tell your friend that there will be an update, the time, and have him exploit it on your behalf. I wonder how many of these hacks, exploits are inside jobs. Probably a lot.
>Children’s usage of video games and tablets is their parents job, not the national government’s.

Confucianism would disagree and most East-Asian countries have been running on some version of it for a few thousand years, so you might want to reevaluate why that idea is so bewildering to you.

Honestly I find the idea bewildering that parents are supposed to be the sole authority on these matters, because 1. works out pretty badly for people who don't have stable parents, which is quite a lot of them nowadays, 2. neglects virtually all institutional knowledge collected over long periods of time
There's a certain amount of contradiction in that fact that

1. We have one group of people looking to how to protect the people of the far distant future from a localized, deadly problem

2. Society, as a whole, seems against even caring if people 50 years from now have a habitable plant.

> The future will bring technology to harvest more energy or otherwise neutralize the waste.

Optimistic. My turn: The future will bring technology to make spiders talk to cats. Prove me wrong!

> If there's some kind of apocalypse where science gets a hard reset, then sealed up nuclear waste is probably very low on the list of realistic and dangerous threats.

Nuclear waste might be relatively low in the immediate time frame after a science-resetting apocalypse, but the societies emerging afterwards will probably appreciate having a warning before they build their new settlements and water wells on a nuclear waste site. Especially if that nominally sealed site seeps out radioactive sludge due to critical containment failure only long after the settlement was established.
Yeah, so they accidentally expanded the supply of Solana tokens by $320M. Whether it's a good thing or bad thing, no one is sure.
the flu kills ~36K/year, so if you're ~22+ year old american, then the influenza virus has killed more people in your lifetime than covid.

we don't know yet what steady-state looks like, but note that medical/epidemiological organizations don't generally keep death statistics on colds (caused by rhinoviruses, coronaviruses, etc.) because they're not a significant number. colds can be a contributing factor in death for folks with deficient immune systems, just as it is with covid, but is generally not the sole cause.

again, >99% survive covid just fine. for people with multiple co-morbidities, it's much more serious (whole percentage death rates), but that's because they're teetering on the brink already, and covid (or any number of respiratory diseases, really) can push them over the edge. our mitigations should focus on the aged and unhealthy, not everyone (especially not children).

Why should I care what "anyone who knows anything about this virus" is expecting? The people writing the policies around vaccination are the ones who matter.

There have been mass firings on the basis that this vaccination will end the pandemic and people who don't get vaccinated are actively harming everyone else. The truth of that claim is far too murky to justify the agressive policies that are being used to force people to get vacinated. Policies which, I note, appear to be deploy what are effectively human rights violations. These are not policieis that should be used. The policy response is what is important here.
From the abstract:

"Drawing selectively on existing cost estimates and augmenting them with new calculations, I conclude that the total direct cost of crisis-related bailouts in the U.S. was on order of $500 billion, or 3.5 percent of GDP in 2009. [...] Those conclusions stand in sharp contrast to popular accounts that claim there was no cost because the money was repaid, and with claims of costs in the multiple trillions of dollars."

From 3.1.3. See Wall's analysis of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac for more detailed discussion of their bailout costs:

"Treasury collected $147 billion from Fannie and $98 billion from Freddie. As explained earlier, interpreting this tally as a cost measure is conceptually flawed for several reasons. Wall (2014) also discusses the shortcomings of this approach, which has been used to argue that the government has been more than fully repaid and that value should be returned to the shareholders."

From the conclusion:

"Nevertheless, the total is large enough to conclude that the bailouts were not a free lunch for policymakers as some have claimed."

What the paper is saying seems pretty clear to me: bailout costs have been inaccurately measured and reported popularly at both ends. It was neither unfathomably expensive, nor profitable to the tax payer.

If you lend me $100 and I pay you back $107 you can declare you profited from the loan if you literally only look at the principal and repayment amount, but finance is not so simple, especially at a national level. Opportunity cost, inflation, depreciation, and numerous other factors exist. The total cost of you lending me $100 could have been significantly more than $107.
I hope this is not an argument for more bailouts. A lot of people walked away with riches while ruining the US economy. "I lost $100 but lookit I just got back $15" is not a win, it's just... less of a loss.
