    The best piece of advice I heard for reading financial reports: start at the bottom, read your way up. All the juicy stuff is hidden in the bottom (like losses), while the pretty, …

    A different way of thinking about it would be considering each Olympic trial as a voter and use gold/silver/bronze as 1st/2nd/3rd in a ranked-choice vote. Each "contest" effectivel…
