About the signal
A short wire for people who would rather read a clear note than a long thread. We do not rank or rate; we report the change and point to the primary source.
- Every signal leads with the date it was observed and what actually changed.
- We separate what changed from why it matters, and never invent numbers to fill the gap.
- When a claim needs a source, we link the primary page rather than restate it.
