I spent a lot of weekends this year finishing up busy work. While I’m not against working weekends, I am committed to changing what I work on during those hours. 2024 will be a year of systems building to ensure weekend hours are devoted to things that don’t feel like work.

Yesterday we got to celebrate the announcement of Weights & Biases being acquired -- and more to come on that. Reminded me to share this story, about Everlance, which announced its acquisition two weeks ago. I love going back to beginnings. ⬇️
