This was my 20th year of riding #RAGBRAI It was on paper one of the easiest, but due to the weather conditions (humidity, headwinds and high overnight temperatures) was one of the most difficult I’ve ever ridden. This story does a great job describing the weather conditions for this year’s ride. Photo courtesy of Dan Verrips

The moon is nearly full, but I found this Lost Moon so I must partake!

Four years on it’s as smooth as the day it rose, rich with malty notes and a cocoa finish. Brightens my day and night!

Time zones are so confusing.
In Paris it's 12:00 pm
In Toronto it's 6:00 am
In Washington it's 1930's Germany.

CEOs were paid 290x their typical worker in 2023.

This isn't because execs are more valuable — they've gamed the system.

Corporations spent $800B on stock buybacks last year, which artificially boost share prices.

Stock-based pay made up ~70% of CEO compensation.

Our stopped clock technology is still in its infancy, but it's already reached an accuracy rate of two or more times per day, and there's no reason for us to believe that won't improve dramatically in the future
