Here's what I've been reading, watching, and listening to:
The Cubs now have 11 wins in games they trailed entering the sixth inning. Zooming out, the North Siders are now 11 games over .500 after sitting 10 games under (26-36) back on June 8.
This is my freshman son’s school. Excited for him.
Google introduces AI-enabled features to take real-time notes and make it easy for those joining late to catch up (plus a post-meeting recap). I love all the innovation in this space…and especially Google’s goal to make you feel in the room regardless of where you’re located.
I see Phyllis on Chicago’s lakefront trail a few times per year. She always yells out encouragement as I bike past her, and it feels amazing. We all need more of this.
Thank you, Phyllis!
Incredible breakdown of an incredible company.
Such a smart, effective leader.

Two studies show Chicago not meeting the need of residents re: cycling infrastructure. Though I’m extremely comfortable biking throughout Chicago, I agree that we’ve got a lot of work to do to make people not used to riding feel safer. I ask my children to ride on the sidewalks and have asked them to never ride on busy streets like Ashland, Western, and Irving Park.
With that said, I have been extremely frustrated with the People for Bike’s report that came out several weeks ago. It had Chicago near the bottom of the list of large cities – behind Milwaukee, Detroit, and even San Antonio. Sure, Jan. Grab a bike and ride in any of those cities compared to Chicago. Not even close.
