Time dilation at altitude
So apparently time moves at different speeds depending on where you are, like when an epic turn seems to make a moment stretch forever.

Research has shown that during flow, your body essentially gives itself a simul-dose of MDMA, heroin, coke and weed

Fascinating read. And for once, most of the comments are well thought out and coherent.

A quick glance in the mirror tells me all I need to know about time, although it is comforting to know that in Truckee I am aging slower than you flatlanders.

If I understand it correctly, mass bends space/time so the farther away from the center of the earth you are the less curved space is and the less distorted time is. Consequently, the higher you are the truer space and time are.

But that space is expanding, and expanding proportional to its distance from you [aka Hubble's Law]. Thus your "True distance" to any other thing [aka space] is a derivative function of time.
