I'm assuming you agree the FDA shouldn't allow somebody to sell deadly nightshade to somebody that doesn't know that nightshade is deadly, but then how do you tell the person that knows the nightshade is deadly apart from the person that doesn't know that the nightshade is deadly?

I majored in EE and only ever had math and engineering classes. I had one class in philosophy that I took for fun but dropped after a week after realizing it's not for me. It didn't hurt my option to graduate in three years. What's the requirement for general education?

I can see value in tracking offers to see how negotiations are going. so if there's standard fields for this, then that's a way he could track comp data without requiring, and even get offer increase info which is probably even more valuable.

Does that really buy you anything though? If they're willing to rescind offers, they'll be happy to lay you-off a few days into your employment too.

I'd be careful using ChatGPT for this. I tried the same recently to bootstrap spot yields from par, which is a fairly common code problem with hundreds of examples online. ChatGPT couldn't do it. It produced code that looked right, but would fail my tests abysmally. I ended up writing it by hand. I hope you are validating their code with known data.

My four year old that's just learning to read had a great time trying to figure each out. This could be great as an early reader game

The shares are borrowed, but not always with the knowledge of the original shareholder. So should one owner get excluded from the fine just because their broker happened to loan out their shares and not the shares of another equally eligible holder? Opposite thing happens with dividends and the original holder is still entitled to those.

is my latest project. Got into box spreads for earning greater than Treasury yields more or less risk free and wanted a way to see what the current trading rates are. Costs me about 20/mo for data and hosting.
