There’s a few things wrong with this: 1. For anything remotely liquid, the order book won’t look like this for various reasons. 2. Except at very high frequency time scales there are more robust measures of price that are typically used: e.

No, people who don’t stream aren’t counted in the above statistic (which is trivial to spot check)

I don’t think e-bikes have qualitatively changed this — I’ve witnessed these snatchings for over 10 years in London and they’re just as effective on a normal bike

> London in general has way-way-way-more-than-median-income-can-afford residential real estate. If your metric for affordability is whether a single (local) median salary can afford a residential property, then almost nowhere in England

Comments like "London real estate is notoriously expensive" don't really refer to greater London. Central London sure, but 1/6th of the population doesn't live there.

There's no way those values are medians. And if they aren't medians it doesn't really prove anything.

Sure, just do _anything_ that's a directional improvement. I think a lot of bad faith prevarication prevents any improvement (such as the question I was replying to).

40hours a week is 8 hours a day. Let's say you sleep 8 hours. Let's also be conservative and say you have a 1 hour commute each way. That's still 6 hours left. It's pretty easy to find some socialization time in there un

> he’s talking about the low stakes idle hedonistic “happiness” from commonly thought of as pleasurable things (brunch, camping, food/drinks with friends, etc.) But it doesn't sound like they were happy even by this definition

I don't disagree with the premise of this article, but it's an incredible act of erasure to declare the meaningful start of podcasts to be 2014. There's a rich history in the preceding decade that's completely ignored (a
