GENTLE REMINDER: ONE WEEK LEFT. The current Three-Year Birthday Offer gets you a yearly subscription for 20% off forever, from May 30th to July 1st. Lock in your annual subscription now for $80/year. Starting July 1st, The Algorithmic Bridge will move to $120/year. Existing paid subs, including those of you who redeem this offer, will retain their rates indefinitely.
