Orca is amazing. It inspired me to start writing my own version as final project for a final project for my Serious Games class in college. I'd highly recommend anyone checking it out

Rust has a similar bifurcation. Most "regular users" of rust will not write macros, for example. Although my impression is that the divide is not as big as C++'s

I listen to music for at least 3 hours per day. Assuming two minute songs, that’s 2700 songs per month. Since my spotify subscription is $10/month, that’s about 0.3 cents per song. I’m curious if I listen to much more music than averag

This is just my non-expert understanding: They give you the share immediately, but the actual trade takes two days to complete, and might not complete at the price you paid. They're in affect giving you a loan for that two-day period,
