This is already a thing?

Facebook has Portal, Apple has iPad, Amazon has Echo, all of whom support Zoom and other video conferencing apps. The portal even has a moving camera to keep you centered if you're moving in frame, and the iPad does the same thing with an ultra-wide lens and some post-processing.

As far as dedicated videoconferencing hardware is concerned, Starline seems pretty late to the game. Although, I'll admit the fancy 3D imaging features is pretty insane.

I'm not quite sure about the timeline of which was first, but didn't ebay have heavy emphasis on seller/buyer reviews early on?

> I don't know whether he orchestrated this or it grew out organically, but he's essentially the Jesus of WSB now.

None of his DD was actually related to GME being shorted. In fact he mentioned a few months ago that he wasn't betting on the squeeze would happen.

Citadel Securities (the market maker that buys and executes Robinhood's order flow) and Citadel (the investment group) are very different companies, and they have a ton of red tape in place to prevent risk of collusion between the two.

Considering Citadel Securities makes _significantly_ more money than Citadel would stand to lose with its short positions, the thought of the two colluding to pressure Robinhood seems a bit far fetched to me.

Having tried a good number of these various type checkers, it seems like Pyright is the only one that properly supports all of the accepted PEP changes to typing.
