olimayA few weeks' belated Happy New Year, everyone!
2015 was a year of internal change for me. This year, 2016, I'm hoping will transform this into external change on several important fronts, which I'll come back to later.
As part of that, I'll be writing a lot more here--maybe even more than the past several years combined. Some of this will be thinking aloud about what I'm learning (which may be data science, programming, or Japanese). But I expect a lot of it to be experiments with writing I haven't really attempted in earnest before. I'm excited but also nervous about this. Do I even know how to do this? But I am trying to look at this less from the perspective of product and more from the perspective of practice, or process.
So, welcome friends--new and old--to a new year and a fresh, new undertaking. Who knows what triumphs, tragedies, disappointments, and victories are in store ahead--or what will last and what will now. Let's work to make the best of this new year, the best of this time given to us.
