I could see this being a safety issue if there’s a problem with the wing or engine and the panels fail, so zero visibility. Its why they ask you to open the window blinds during take off and landing

> Reportedly Michael Burry has recently placed massive put option bets

Do you think this a meaningful signal?

Nobody knows.

Over the last ten years of following investment news and discussion regularly, I see this question comes up very regularly, or there’s news that some economic indicator changing in X way or such-and-such person predicts for Y reason, that means that we have a huge crash coming in the next few months. This is all just noise with very little or no meaningful signal.

You can even see it here in this thread. I will reiterate - nobody knows.

If your question is motivated by personal finance reasons I recommend not trying to time the market, and reading the Bogleheads wiki https://www.bogleheads.org/wiki/Main_Page

I don’t think you can get a more simple ML model than linear regression?

y=w0+x*w1

That’s lines of code, not weights

> I consider running from “amounts as integer” systems these days (but usually unfortunately can’t).

In the context of Fintech, how do you otherwise resolve floating point rounding issues if not representing amounts with integers?

I’m not taking sides on the wider argument here, but I think it’s you who should check your sources? Copy pasting direct from wikipedia:

> The city of Bradford is 45.8% White according to the latest 2021 census data, with the White British population being 40.5%. 45.3% of the city's population is Asian, primarily from the Pakistani community

> According to figures from the 2021 census, 48.7% of the population was White (42.9% White British

Are we talking about the same Outlook here? And I mean that sincerely. I just joined a new company and now have to use MS software for the first time since Windows 7. Outlook, Teams, OneDrive, you name it, are all a clunky mess (at least on MacOs).

There was some trial where they painted <100 yellow, as part of some rebranding and privatisation of British Telecom. There was a public outcry and they reverted

I thought you were going to link Brian Eno’s Music for Airports

> intent of defusing the anxious atmosphere of an airport terminal as an alternative to "canned" Muzak and easy listening styles.

> The next idea is music to drown out what's left but that just distracts me too.

You could try using white noise, either an app or if you have a Mac or iPhone they have native white noise generation (Accessibility -> Hearing -> Background Sounds iirc)

Please don’t actually do this. Forcing “correct” alignment would likely cause more issues.

As someone with perfectionist tendencies I'd say for some people it's perhaps best to enjoy walking aimlessly rather than seeking to optimise yet another part of life, at least at the start.

Personally I found this with running. It never became a consistent habit and something I looked forward to until I stopped thinking about where, when and how fast I was running and just did whatever I felt like. This realisation came after many years of trying and failing to stick to any kind of cardio exercise, and now a couple of years later I have a few half marathons under my belt and am training for my first marathon later this year. I attribute this entirely to the mindset change I described.
