What if neither will let you read a book by close date? Do you resolve to N/A or PROB?

@howtodowtle My inclination is to just keep extending the close date in that case.

@dreev Cool, thanks for clarifying!

If anyone objects to that, do say so! Also is it annoying if I keep pushing the deadline out vs just setting it to the year 2099 right now in order to make it effectively open-ended?

@dreev I would understand your resolution plans without looking at the comments if you set to 2099, but I think I would be a little surprised by the "keep extending" thing. Is there a cost to a far resolution date?

@MrMagnolia I don't think so! When I made this market I think I was naively imagining that we'd know the answer within a year [and a half, I guess]. Setting an end date could be viewed as setting an alarm clock, reminding us to revisit the market and see if it's resolvable?

@dreev Hm good point. My guess is traders will ping you when resolution time comes around, but not sure

@MrMagnolia Manifold itself bugs me when we hit the close date. It just did so now and I pushed it out to the end of 2023. Again, people should let me know if this is annoying and I should just set it to 2099.

@dreev By "traders will ping you when resolution time comes around" I meant that they'd let you know if there was a long end date, but Comma.ai or Tesla lets you read a book while driving beforehand (perhaps that was clear, but for clarity)
