I majored in EE and only ever had math and engineering classes. I had one class in philosophy that I took for fun but dropped after a week after realizing it's not for me. It didn't hurt my option to graduate in three years. What's the requirement for general education?

I'd be careful using ChatGPT for this. I tried the same recently to bootstrap spot yields from par, which is a fairly common code problem with hundreds of examples online. ChatGPT couldn't do it. It produced code that looked right, but would fail my tests abysmally. I ended up writing it by hand. I hope you are validating their code with known data.

The shares are borrowed, but not always with the knowledge of the original shareholder. So should one owner get excluded from the fine just because their broker happened to loan out their shares and not the shares of another equally eligible holder? Opposite thing happens with dividends and the original holder is still entitled to those.

I know you're right, but I never could figure out why they'd sell singles for less than wholesale. what's the point?

You've never done iPhone development it seems where there's neverending new or deprecated versions of iOS and "kits". I've had clients that try this without a dedicated team, and each time was a nightmare for them(and hence us) where nobody remembered how anything was done

I'm not in this space, but I'd expect that they wouldn't know the results beforehand and just publishing the results even when not a major improvement tells the community that they don't need to spend the extra 99x compute. That seems valuable to some degree. Or is the argument that there wasn't any improvement to be had so why even test the 100x extra?

Wouldn't this self select for the unemployed? Unless they took a week off and then gave notice after the "contract" period.

Market makers can't just conjure up a counterparty. The spread widens because lack a liquidity increases directional risk. If it were truly riskless, others would jump in to close the spread.
