Someone more capable than I should make the final form of this: No green or yellow feedback is provided, but only the timing information used to calculate it. If cryptographers are serious about side-channel attacks, why not show off the

For those of you here that have hit your FIRE number: have you ever brought this up with your manager or potential new company? I'm in this position myself where I don't have to work any more, and mainly just want a fun job. I

A different way of thinking about it would be considering each Olympic trial as a voter and use gold/silver/bronze as 1st/2nd/3rd in a ranked-choice vote. Each "contest" effectively votes on a country.

Up until the beginning of 2020, NFLX was the highest growing stock of the decade. (Dethroned by TSLA) In terms of percentage growth I believe it still outperforms every other component of FAANG.

Probably a dumb question, but why don't the pilots cut the fuel to the right engine after they know it's on fire?

Unlikely, for the gamma squeeze to work on TSLA, the Market Makers need to hold the shares after the options expire. Otherwise when the options close, they wouldn't need to maintain their exposure. For reasons we don't know, the
