[Ep499] Number Crunch
This week, we talk about 2024 stats, community engagement, and integration. Making things work together is never simple. Small changes can cause big ripples, and keeping the machine running means constant tweaks, steady fixes, and the occasional facepalm. In the end, it all comes down to communication because nothing integrates without people staying in sync.
