The latest CPI data came out today with mixed movement. Eggs dropped while sugar, coffee, and bananas are up and have all hit record highs again. Yup, tariffs.

Globally, more than 700k people die from suicide every year with male deaths on top. There are no countries with reported data where female suicides are more common than male. And males are 4x more likely to die by suicide in the US. Source @ourworldindata.org

Starting a very intentional new chapter today. Joining Strava as an iOS Design Technologist (think prototyper) where I can merge my passion for movement with my passion for technology. And oh boy there will be data!

When you design an experience, to make it truly remarkable is tell people you give a shit about them. You don’t achieve this by chasing trends or money. You do this by learning compassion and empathy.

📊 #dataviz #history Who invented the bar chart? Everyone credits William Playfair in his 1785 Commercial and Political Atlas

I give that honor to the cartographer Phillipe Buache for lovely 1767 chart of the heights of water along the Seine.

Here’s a shot I took from the summit of Mt Conness about 4 years ago. I typically summit this mountain annually to document a dying glacier on its north face and because it’s a freakin sick Mt to climb.

While the wanna be dictator openly says egg prices are coming down, let’s look at reality (they are at record highs again) and remind ourselves how facts don’t matter to this administration.

While inflation numbers are slightly lower than expected for March, grocery prices have continued to climb. Eggs and Coffee are, again, at record highs. And this is all pre-tariff madness.

And yet Joe Rogan puts guests on who say "Vaccines aren't actually responsible for the reduction in infectious diseases.”

They say if you can climb After Seven (5.8, 6 pitches) in under 3 hours you’re ready for the Yosemite classic Royal Arches (5.7 A0, 13 pitches). We cruised it in 2hrs 25mins. Super stoked.
