No, it doesn't at all. The reproducibility issue in psychology has mostly to do with p-hacking, which is a very specific abuse of legitimate statistical analysis in which statistical significance is brute-forced and cherry-picked (rendering it no longer significant), and is often applied to otherwise sound experiments and hypotheses. The paper in question is literally gibberish.

You can now link your RH account (and many other brokers) directly to Yahoo Finance and trade and track your portfolio in real-time, so really it's even better than them becoming a broker.

I know you mentioned below that you don't like their current news feed, but for what it's worth, Yahoo Finance is going the opposite direction of Google, upgrading and adding features and integrations, not removing stuff. For example, apropos of the article, Y!Fi not only has the same watchlist functionality that everyone is angry Google removed, but you can now link your live brokerage account for real-time portfolio tracking across their apps/site. If you reach out to them with constructive feedback they are pretty receptive.

(Full disclosure: I work for https://trade.it which provides the aforementioned broker API functionality to Yahoo Finance)

Do you have any examples you recommend?

As of right now, Yahoo Finance has the same watchlist functionality, but with more data than Google Finance including options and crypto and much more powerful charting and native mobile apps. You can even link your real brokerage account for real-time portfolio tracking and trading directly from their apps and site.

(If I sound like a shill, I work for https://trade.it which provides broker API functionality to Yahoo Finance, but I have also been trading and using Yahoo Finance for over a decade, way before I ever became technologically involved with them)

Interesting writeup. This is also a major issue for us at TradeIt (we do something similar but for stock brokers and portfolio/trading) as the brokers we integrate are not always...ahem..."robust". We've found that our upstream users really appreciate that often we can tell them about brokers' service outages before the brokers even announce it (when the brokers even bother). Sometimes the brokers don't even realize their system is malfunctioning until we poke them to ask what's going on.

Our throughput numbers are much lower and and our integrations are much fewer than Plaid, so we have been able to get away with keeping a close eye on Graphite/Grafana for spikes in request failures/timeouts. Seems like eventually we will need to implement some kind of statistical monitoring and alerting.

We are a funded fintech startup that provides an API that allows our partners' applications to integrate with brokers for stock trading, portfolio management, account opening, automated trading, crypto (and more!). We are currently signing new partners and brokers on a weekly basis and are expanding internationally. Check out the broker linking and trading in the Yahoo Finance apps (iOS/Android/web) to see TradeIt in action.

The API team is looking for engineers with strong backend/API experience, preferably (but not necessarily) on a Java stack. Lots of interesting architecture, concurrency, and performance challenges await.
