Heh. The obvious answer is "because Voronoi tesselations can convey a 2D ___location in addition to the data set size". But this doesn't use that. So... yeah, they're not.
Or better yet, only unlocks after you _haven't_ paid the bitcoin ransom in the allotted time period. If you just decrypt now it's Pascal's wager and the buy-in is $500, so most people buy and worst case scenario the guy who hit you was a dick trying to prove a larger point, but if the cultural narrative is "don't help the criminals / don't negotiate with terrorists!" then it would be rational and societally acceptable not to pay the ransom.
The solution isn't to have random security consultants come in and kludge up your process and generate useless reports of irrelevant statistics. The solution is to have a red team on staff permanently, to offer bug bounties based on actual access, to install on-server monitoring for outdated packages (like Appcanary, the authors of this piece), to monitor outbound packets for suspicious behaviour (this is currently the hardest part, imo, since, other than detecting major viruses, it's largely ___domain and network specific), and to have an automated "take the servers off the internet" button for serious 0-days and leaked credentials. Also, always use HTTPS / HSTS lists and two factor authentication.
You'll still get hacked, but you'll be far better off.
Eating healthy, cheap, easy is easy if you put even 4 hours of thought into it and are willing to learn. I'm in Toronto Canada, so these might not be tailored to you, but you can get the general idea.
1. Eat things in season. Squash, carrots, onions, sweet potatoes, corn are just unbelievably cheap in the autumn. Use garlic, onion, bay leaf, oil, a couple thai chili peppers fry them in the bottom of a pot with some coconut oil. Put the cubed squash (skins and all!) in the pot with a lid and some stock (veggie or chicken) until soft. Smush down add other veggies and add a half can of coconut milk and you have 8 or 10 meals at around a $1 CAD per meal. Easy to heat up, bring to work, lasts a while in the fridge.
2. Eat better, cheaper animal protein. Mussels are very cheap and very delicious. Canned clams are easy too. Sardines on toast are easy and delicious. Eggs. If you're adventurous get the butcher to grind beef heart with chuck and make much healthier beef heart burgers.
3. Figure out the cost of things per calorie, but be careful to restrict what you buy to just within the set of healthy foods. For example, whole milk is pretty cheap per calorie and still pretty healthy if you're of European ancestry. Nuts look completely overpriced until you realize that they are 1/5th the cost per calorie of carrots. I know it seems counter intuitive to try to find calorie rich foods, but if you're poor you do need to pay attention to this. Avocados, olive oil, granola, almond butter.
4. If it is dry, canned, or otherwise keeps, buy in bulk. Brown rice, steel cut oats, flour, cans of tomatoes, bags of onions, carrots, everything.
5. Slow cookers make things easy, pressure cookers make things fast. I own one that does both and if you want fast, healthy, cheap, delicious: one chicken leg, some stock, veggies, some dry spices + pressure cooker = perfect meal in 10 mins with very little cleanup.
