We shared this request example with FAB participants: url_qparams = { "limit": count, "offset": offset, "has_group": "false", "order_by": "-activity", "forecast_type": "binary", "project": tournament_id, "status": "open", "type": "forecast", "include_description": "true", } url = f"{api_info.base_url}/questions/" response = requests.get( url, headers={"Authorization": f"Token {api_info.token}"}, params=url_qparams )
But we don't want to support all these parameters, and the ones relevant are: - order_by - status - project - forecast_type - we ignore this, but assume it's binary - FAB only supports binary for now.

initial coin offerings (ICOs) have become increasingly popular in 2016 and 2017, [growing by a factor of 100 during 2017](https://news.crunchbase.com/news/2017s-ico-market-grew-nearly-100x-q1-q4/) with about $3B raised in total in 2017's 4th quarter. This is still relatively small compared to [~$20B in 3rd quarter venture capital raises in 2017](https://pitchbook.com/media/press-releases/total-venture-capital-dollars-invested-in-2017-on-track-to-reach-decade-high), but the proportion is rapidly rising.\n\nHowever, cryptocurrencies hit a bit of a wall in mid-December 2017 and have been declining or stable between then and late February. Along with participation, utility, and investment, it's clear that a significant component of coin purchasing is speculation that the coins will increase in value because...there is speculation that the coins will increase in value because...\n\nSo one might imagine that in a flat or declining coin market ICOs are going to have a tough time. The question one would like to answer if one were contemplating an ICO would be something like:\n\n*** On May 1 will the ICO space still be growing in overall size, and stable in success likelihood? ***\n\n(Here, \"success likelihood\" is something like expectation value of capital raised for a fixed quality of project.)\n\nThe attentive Metaculus user will note that this question is far less specific and well-posed than usual. This is by intent. The question will be resolved in the following manner. The question will remain open until its resolution time. Then:\n\n* If at the resolution time the community prediction probability is < 10% or > 90%, the question will resolve negatively or positively, respectively.\n\n* Otherwise, it will be resolved by the personal, unquestioned discretion of the question's author. \n\nThe intent (along with crypto-insight) is to experiment with a new idea about consensus question resolution, in which a question might close (differently from this one), but remain open for predictions *about the resolution.* This might either be neat, or perhaps create in infinite unstable meta-regress; we'll see and

predicting on Metaculus is that any arbitrary event a priori is less likely to happen than not and less likely to happen than most people think (this is why the Metaculus prediction tends to calibrate down). An event is defined here as something you would ask to <strong>happen</strong>, rather than <strong>not happen</strong>, for a positive resolution to a question.\n\nIt would be interesting to determine a general value for the a priori probability of an event happening as defined above. This value could allow us to estimate the probability of events for which there is little evidence for or against. For example, <a href=' https://www.theguardian.com/education/2004/mar/08/highereducation.uk1'>the probability that God exists</a> has been estimated to be 67%, yet the problem is that the a priori was taken to be 50%. There is no reason to assume this.\n\nThe only way to determine an a priori probability for a question resolving positive would be to remove anything question specific from the question: to not tell people what the question is. This is what we are going to do. A question has been set for the resolution of this question, but it is known only to me and the Metaculus admin. Obviously, those who know the question should not predict on this question.\n\nIt is asked:\n\n*** Will this question, with its secret resolution criteria, resolve positive? ***\n\nTo wet your appetite I'm going to outline a few possible considerations one might take when answering this question. Of course, there are many others.\n\nOne could sample from the Metaculus track record. 55/208=26.4% of questions resolved positive (at least according to my counting). \n\nYet, Metaculus also has a technology heavy question stack and there is a separate effect to the general overestimation of probabilities, which is the general overestimation of technological progress in our time, that might be influencing this figure. Note that no category has been selected for this question, as it is not given in which category it is. It may, or may not, have anything to do with technology. It might even be in a completely new category.\n\nAlso, only short-term questions have resolved. What would be the a priori for more long-term questions? I could have picked a question we already know the answer to, which would have been a very long-term question long ago, for resolution. Or I could not have. You just don't know.\n\nAlso, this question will resolve in 2018 and in 2018 (up to now) we have had even more negative resolutions than usual.", "fine_print": "", "post_id": 666, "aggregations": {

Each satellite would have a total throughput of about 20 Gbps, utilizing a 2 GHz frequency band in the 11-15 GHz range.\n\nBut the most ambitious aspect of SpaceX's plan is the number of satellites they plan to launch: 4,425 satellites, with a potential for 7,518 satellites in orbital planes even closer to the ground. Only 1,500 satellites currently orbit Earth. \n\nOn Feb. 22, 2018 SpaceX [launched two test satellites, Tintin-1 and Tintin 2](https://heavy.com/tech/2018/02/tintin-spacex-satellites-starlink-name/), which appear to share many of the characteristics of the satellites that the plan would eventually deploy.\n\nBut will Starlink actually happen? And when? A full system as described could cost tens of billions of dollars total, and it is unclear whether the financing is in place. And there are competitive efforts by the [OneWeb satellite constellation](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OneWeb_satellite_constellation), a major [Samsung effort](https://www.popsci.com/samsung-wants-launch-thousands-satellites-bring-everyone-earth-internet) and others.

capabilities”](https://www.forbes.com/sites/bernardmarr/2017/09/05/how-quantum-computers-will-revolutionize-artificial-intelligence-machine-learning-and-big-data/2/#714f59467bc9)\n\n- [(“hugely reduce the time and cost of… calculations [that predict the properties of pharmaceutical drugs]”](https://www.newstatesman.com/science-tech/technology/2017/12/how-quantum-computing-will-change-world)\n\nOne of the first steps to this bright future is the achievement of what’s known as [quantum supremacy](https://www.fastcompany.com/40514189/intel-new-chip-aims-for-quantum-supremacy)—the creation of a quantum computer capable of solving problems that a classic computer cannot.\n\nBut skeptics like [Phillip Ball](https://www.nature.com/news/race-for-quantum-supremacy-hits-theoretical-quagmire-1.22993) and mathematician Gil Kalai now [argue](https://arxiv.org/abs/1409.3093) that large scale quantum computing projects will always be hampered by irreducible noise in the system.\n\nKalai recently explained his argument in an [interview with Quanta Magazine:](https://www.quantamagazine.org/gil-kalais-argument-against-quantum-computers-20180207/) “[the results of an experiment performed by Kalai and colleagues] shows that the noise level [in a quantum computer] cannot be reduced, because doing so will contradict an insight from the theory of computing about the power of primitive computational devices. Noisy quantum computers in the small and intermediate scale deliver primitive computational power. They are too primitive to reach “quantum supremacy” — and if quantum supremacy is not possible, then creating quantum error-correcting codes, which is harder, is also impossible.”\n\n*** Will quantum supremacy be achieved by 2025, rather than proving elusive for years to come if not indefinitely? ***\n\nThe question resolves positively if quantum supremacy has been demonstrated by 2025. [Precisely defining quantum supremacy is itself somewhat tricky](https://www.nature.com/news/race-for-quantum-supremacy-hits-theoretical-quagmire-1.22993).

Teicholz,](www.latimes.com/opinion/op-ed/la-oe-taubes-teicholz-us-news-best-diet-problems-20180128-story.html) have argued that the widespread adoption of a low fat, high carb diet fueled this

carbohydrate.](https://www.nutritioncoalition.us/still-on-a-onesizefitsall-diet/)\n\nThere has been a small, but growing insurgency among a minority of doctors and nutritionists, who counsel

We have yet to reach elements 120 and 126 and there might still be more stable isotopes of element 114 that have not yet been created." }, { "id": 657, "title": "Will India land on the Moon by August 1, 2018?", "short_title": "", "url_title": "", "slug": "will-india-land-on-the-moon-by-august-1-2018", "author_id": 8, "author_username": "Anthony", "coauthors": [], "created_at": "2018-02-21T16:43:12.628572Z", "published_at": "2018-02-24T08:00:00Z", "edited_at": "2025-09-05T17:29:04.352981Z", "curation_status": "approved", "curation_status_updated_at": "2018-02-24T08:00:00Z", "comment_count": 6, "status": "resolved", "resolved": true, "actual_close_time": "2018-03-30T07:00:00Z", "scheduled_close_time": "2018-03-30T07:00:00Z", "scheduled_resolve_time": "2018-08-03T16:31:00Z", "actual_resolve_time": "2018-08-03T16:31:00Z", "open_time": "2018-02-24T08:00:00Z", "nr_forecasters": 91, "html_metadata_json": null, "projects": { "leaderboard_tag": [ { "id": 32599, "name": "2018 Leaderboard", "slug": "2018_leaderboard", "type": "leaderboard_tag" } ], "site_main": [ { "id": 144, "type": "site_main", "name": "Metaculus Community", "slug": null, "header_image": null, "prize_pool": null, "start_date": null, "close_date": null, "forecasting_end_date": null, "html_metadata_json": null, "is_ongoing": null, "user_permission": "forecaster", "created_at": "2023-11-08T16:55:29.484707Z", "edited_at": "2025-07-18T17:28:18.838588Z", "score_type": null, "default_permission": "forecaster", "visibility": "normal", "is_current_content_translated": false, "bot_leaderboard_status": "exclude_and_show" } ], "default_project": { "id": 144, "type": "site_main", "name": "Metaculus Community", "slug": null, "header_image": null, "prize_pool": null, "start_date": null, "close_date": null, "forecasting_end_date": null, "html_metadata_json": null, "is_ongoing": null, "user_permission": "forecaster", "created_at": "2023-11-08T16:55:29.484707Z", "edited_at": "2025-07-18T17:28:18.838588Z", "score_type": null, "default_permission": "forecaster", "visibility": "normal", "is_current_content_translated": false, "bot_leaderboard_status": "exclude_and_show" }, "category": [ { "id": 3698, "name": "Economy & Business", "slug": "economy-business", "emoji": "💼", "description": "Economy & Business", "type": "category" }, { "id": 3701, "name": "Technology", "slug": "technology", "emoji": "⚙️", "description": "Technology", "type": "category" }, { "id": 3695, "name": "Space", "slug": "space", "emoji": "🚀", "description": "Space", "type": "category" } ] }, "question": { "id": 657, "title": "Will India land on the Moon by August 1, 2018?", "created_at": "2018-02-21T16:43:12.628572Z", "open_time": "2018-02-24T08:00:00Z", "cp_reveal_time": "2018-02-25T10:57:48.201029Z", "spot_scoring_time": "2018-02-25T10:57:48.201029Z", "scheduled_resolve_time": "2018-08-03T16:31:00Z", "actual_resolve_time": "2018-08-03T16:31:00Z", "resolution_set_time": "2018-08-03T16:31:00Z", "scheduled_close_time": "2018-03-30T07:00:00Z", "actual_close_time": "2018-03-30T07:00:00Z", "type": "binary", "options": null, "group_variable": "", "status": "resolved", "possibilities": { "type": "binary" }, "resolution": "no", "include_bots_in_aggregates": false, "question_weight": 1.0, "default_score_type": "peer", "default_aggregation_method": "recency_weighted", "label": "", "unit": "", "open_upper_bound": null, "open_lower_bound": null, "inbound_outcome_count": null, "scaling": { "range_min": null, "range_max": null, "nominal_min": null, "nominal_max": null, "zero_point": null, "open_upper_bound": null, "open_lower_bound": null, "inbound_outcome_count": null, "continuous_range": null }, "group_rank": null, "description": "", "resolution_criteria": "While most attention regard \"budget\" spaceflight has been focused on Elon Musk and other commercial spacecraft enterprises, with their re-use technologies, there is another player in the \"low\"-cost space race: India.\n\nBy keeping their engineering teams and supply chain local to India and taking advantage of inexpensive labor and supplies, India has [launched successful missions to the Moon and Mars](https://www.outlookindia.com/website/story/how-do-isro-keep-moon-mission-cost-cheaper-than-hollywood-hit-interstellar-scien/308595) at a small fraction of the cost of US launches by NASA, at least as computed in dollars (with no purchasing-price-parity adjustment applied.)\n\nTheir next mission, [Chandrayaan-2](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chandrayaan-2) is a landing on the Moon, slated for April.

If successful, Chandrayaan-2 will be the first-ever mission to land a rover near the lunar south pole.\n\nThe mission will be carried by the [GSLV2](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geosynchronous_Satellite_Launch_Vehicle) system; this rocket has made its last four launched successfully, though there is a mixed record before that (including a GSLV1).\n\nThis lunar mission is not just interesting as a (potential) triumph of Indian engineering, but also at some level on the world spacecraft stage, as the mission is coming in at a cost of apparently $165M total; this probably makes it competitive even with SpaceX's re-used rockets.\n\n*** Will it succeed? ***\n\nResolution is positive if a spacecraft launched by India lands on the Moon by August 1, 2018 (giving some room for delays).
