Date Subscripts

These should be disabled on mobile.

One reason I’m interested in the date subscript idea is that I already try to be consistent with commas to distinguish years from numbers which happen to fall in the range 1,000–2,100. (What about years whose number form wouldn’t have a comma, and they are ambiguous, like ‘999’ the number vs ‘999 AD’? There aren’t many of those on Gwern.net so they’ll just have to be marked up manually or possibly the regexp match made more complicated to match an AD/BC suffix).

So hypothetically I can mark up years differently from numbers, and ranges as well.

A date ‘1500’ (which is not the number ‘1,500’) can be subscripted 1500~524ya~ while a ‘1,500’ is ignored; and a date-range like ‘the third Swisso-Franco incursion (1549–541603421ya) led to…’ can be marked up as both a sub and superscript, say, like 1549--<sup>52</sup>1603<sub>421ya</sub>—to tell you at a glance that this war lasted an epic half century half a millenium ago.

So it’d go:

  • single non-date number: nothing

  • single date number: subscript years-ago

    Ranges and years-ago are rounded like inflation, to keep them workable for large ones, like in archaeology or anthropology or evolution where you might have a 10 million year range 100 million years ago.

  • double non-date number range: superscript range

  • double date number: superscript range, subscript years-ago.

Test-cases for using subscripts to annotate dates with auto-generated time spans to avoid the ‘context collapse’ or ‘eternal present’ problem as temporal intuitions seem to be breaking down.

WII was 1939–1945, or more specifically, 1939-09-01–1945-09-02. The end of WWII was 1945. It is now 2025. It used to be 2009. Whereas in the year 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue. RIP Sir Thomas Browne (1605-10–77y1682-10342ya).

Numbers

Old-style numbers (default for inline use):

Numbers in links (lining rather than old-style, to avoid skipping ink):

Dates (YYYY-MM-DD):

Inflation Adjusters

“When I was a kid, I could buy a Snickers bar for $1.36$0.11930! Then in 199034ya, it cost $1.27$0.51990 and today it costs $1.”

“But back then, that was a day’s wages, Grandpa. That’s what inflation is—it’s deeply misleading to talk about nominal costs back then without noting that nominal incomes went up far more. The good old days weren’t so good. Anyway, you should’ve invested in Bitcoin by buying $24.46₿12013 instead which would be worth a lot more today ($13,779.67₿12020).”

Math (Inline)

E = mc2 as long as E = 1⁄2.

LaTeX inline: If then ? (See also: BibTeX, TeX.)

Collapses (Inline)

Block-level collapses are used extensively on Gwern.net, but inline collapsing is also supported: eg. this is an inline collapsed region which you can click on to expand and see the entire sentence, and then click on again to re-collapse.

Inline formatting checks: Man’s first folly, | the fateful fruit’s taste, / From forbidden tree’s | tempting twig it came, / Death and doom dealt, | despair in our world, / Eden erased, | exalted man to mend, / Restoring realms | of radiant bliss, sing, / Sacred muse, | who soared on secret summits, / Oreb, Sinai, | sharing whispered wisdom, / With shepherds, | teaching truths to chosen kin, / Heavens and earth | hewn from harrowing haze (Milton 1667357ya), / Sion’s slopes, | Siloa’s silver stream, / Flowing fast | by God’s grand guiding hand, / Grant thy aid | to my aspiring anthem, / Aiming high | above Aonian heights, / Pursuing paths | untried in prose or rhyme.
