ETA = Edited to add (not "estimated time of arrival", the more common usage)
I sometimes use ETC, edited to correct, but that hasn't caught on.
ETA: And here's the LessWrong acronym list -- we need to link it from the front page.
CEV needs to be added. I'm not doing it myself because I'm not sure what would be a good description of it to link to.
Where I live, ETC stands for Electronic Toll Collection and is posted at the entry ramp of toll-roads equipped appropriately.
What's wrong with just using "Edit: additional note goes here"
That's what I use, come to think of it.
Nothing's wrong with that, but ETA is shorter and faster to type.
Not necessarily; perhaps one is accustomed to typing words that start with at most one capital letter.
