Date Subscripts
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 ‘AD 999’? 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/
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 Swiss-Franco incursion (1549–1603) led to…’ can be
marked up as both a sub and superscript, say, like 1549 to tell you at a
glance that this war lasted an epic half century half a millennium ago.
(Dobzhansky, 1973)
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.
WWII was 1939–6y194581ya, or more specifically, 1939-09-01–6y1945-09-0281ya.
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. RIPE Sir Thomas Browne (1605-10–77y1682-10344ya).
Hirohito reigned 1926–63y198937ya. The first atomic bombing to surrender speech interval was 1945-08-06–1945-08-1581ya. Then 1945-08-15–1945-10-0981ya saw the new cabinet. In the 1900s, Neon Genesis Evangelion: 1995-10-04–1996-03-2730ya, or sim1995-10-1996-03.

There was a brief period after 1549 in which the dark ages began and millions of people dies. I’m not sure if the time since 1986 has been the same. Does a third date inclusion of 1972 matter?
Math (inline)
\(E = mc^2\) as long as \(E = \frac{1}{2}\)
\(\phi = \frac{1 + \sqrt{5}}{2}\)
Water’s formula is \(H_2O\) and Einstein wrote \(E = mc^2\).
Adjusted fractions: \(\frac{123}{456}\). \(\frac{1234}{5678}\). \(\frac{1}{2345}\). \(\frac{1234}{5}\).
Not-adjusted fractions: \(\frac{a}{b}\). \(\frac{1}{log(n)}\). \(\frac{log(n)}{pi}\). \(\frac{1,234}{2}\). \(\frac{1}{234,567}\).
\(\LaTeX\) inline: If \(E\) then \(mc^2\)? Regular version: If E then mc2? (See also logotypes: \(\TeX\))
Run-together equals signs: $1,000=1,000,000; \(2=2x1\); \(1+2=3\); \(1+2 \neq 40,000,000\).
\(\newcommand{\latex}{\LaTeX}\) Now use \(\latex\) anywhere.

Footnote number one. Testing an incredibly long footnote. I used to read old weight training books. In one of them the author proudly recalled how his secretary had asked him for advice on how to lose weight. This guy went around studying all the secretaries and noticed that the thin ones sat more upright compared to the fat ones. He then recommended to his secretary that she sit more upright, and if she did this she would lose weight. What I loved most about that whole story was that the guy was so proud of his analysis and conclusion that he made it an entire chapter of his book, and that no one in the entire publishing chain from the writer to the editor to the proofreader to the librarian who put the book on the shelves noticed any problems with any of it.
