That's kinda clever, and possibly something to consider for users who prefer an alternative to filing.

Are there limits on what kinds of websites can request for a visitor's global ID information?

Must a website direct the user to log into their MS account before it is able to get a hold of the user's global ID information?

I thought I had it lucky with my measly 25GB of lifetime storage. Have been using Dropbox for free for well over a decade – I would pay but their entry level plan far exceeds what I need.

Am eagerly anticipating the commercial availability of Mathpad.

At the moment I'm using Espanso, an open source software that lets users map typed character sequences to unicode. So it's possible to set things up in such a way that typing the character sequence ";" "a" ";" makes Espanso replace the entire ;a; string with the greek symbol alpha α.

Symbols like ⇒ that can kind of be "drawn" with common keyboard characters "=" ">" is possibly nice to be mapped to the character sequence ;=>; This is a personal preference inspired by Typst's math notation design choice.

As I understand it, for retail market participants, the concern of dark trading venues is at least twofold:

1. With some brokerages, retail orders are prioritized for dark venues over lit ones (i.e., first routed to see if they can be fulfilled on dark venues, otherwise, then route to lit ones) where they are essentially trading against more knowledgeable participants. A common argument in favor of this, oft cited by dark pool operators and affliated brokerages is that on average, historically, better prices for all participants have been attained with the assistance of dark pools.

Relatedly, on many trading venues, even lit ones, trade orders are demarcated to distinguish between retail and non-retail – a feature visible to larger participants like MMs and one would imagine high volume participants – which is essentially extra information to a subset of participants that indicate that an order is safer to trade against.

2. Dark venues operate outside the standard public exchange framework. Trade orders are not _as_ visible to the broader market. This lack of transparency can disadvantage retail, who don’t have equal insight into the supply or demand of shares. This opacity possibly hinders price discovery of the "real" price.

It's not loading on my end, but I checked out the web archive version of it and have to say that this feels possibly quite fun and, dare I say, potentially addictive. Not sure if there's an intention to extend this, but giving the ability to filter by topic, "trending-ness" (like the "hot" metric on Reddit), controversy, date of post/last engagement, etc. could be a potential next step.

I've never thought about this – but it's quite the brilliant idea provided the user isn't someone prone to getting a heart attack from a jumpscare.

This list is quite well-put.

Also, for a large number of roles, people are judged by the net value that they've contributed (net of mistakes). In a pretty large subset of such roles, it's usually the case that small-ish mistakes result in small-ish penalties, or sizeable penalties that aren't apparent immediately – so in the short-term, the here and now, folks in these roles are incentivized to focus on the big picture, and to ignore what they might feel could cause small-ish mistakes.

Consider a person involved with the modification of city street infrastructure to better cater for bikes. It's pretty good by most people's standards to have made progress by building reasonably use-able bike pathways, stands, etc. in say, a 4 km radius in a year. If it just so happens that like three out of, say, sixty of such constructs are problematic (mistakes) but they aren't big-ish problems, then on the whole, this person would be, quite justly, credited for having contributed to at least fifty seven functioning constructs; all in all, pretty good work despite three problematic constructs.

Of course, not all types of work is like that. That is, not all work are that forgiving in the sense that most earnest mistakes turn out to be small ones relative to the overall value produced. E.g., trading: algorithmic or otherwise.

Now, just a note in closing, the distribution of the price of mistakes in a given role is a different matter, can be an art in that it involves qualitative judgement, may be largely sensitive to context, and may be quite opinionated depending on who is reached for comment.

would be helpful if I could get assistance with the paywall – I could be wrong, but I'm assuming a sizeable handful of commenters in this section managed to read this paywalled article?

There's a related line of research that concerns computer vision models and optical illusions.

I just wanna say I like the idea and I think you're (OP) right on the mark on there being people who prefer communicating by voice in an informal setting instead of using text. Voice may be, in certain situations, a higher bandwidth medium since intonation may be incorporated. On the flipside, I personally feel like I could be exposing more of myself to the world than I'd wish to with voice.. like people with particularly unique voices may fear de-anonymization via voice.

Overall, I think it's a project worth playing around with, and who knows, traction could start building up.

1. jobs that are monetarily incentivized in this way are quite common though.

2. for certain kinds of jobs, if an employer desires employees to go the "long, hard, stupid way" while short-cuts lie in plain sight, the employer might wish to incorporate forms of incentives and disincentives into their payout system rather than rely on their employee to "just do it".

Enjoyed playing around the visualization to get a better mental picture of Earth's neighborhood. it's mind-blowing to know that there are 200 to 400 billion stars just in our galaxy alone. And it's even more breath-taking to comprehend that our galaxy is but one of a ≥100 billion galaxies in the _observable_ universe.

Very nice. I wish I could do this sort of scroll story in my digital notes. Is this done with a javascript library?

Similar to how people are intelligent in different ways, we too may be less-smart-than-the-average in different ways.
