I stopped deciding what to work on and built a system that ranks my entire life by expected return per hour. A cool byproduct of having a brain with full context across my work + life: it can intelligently prioritize for me. All I do is throw any and every task in, and the output is a trusted ranking of priorities based off of value per hour. Every task gets enriched first. An agent creates a one-pager briefing pulling from the 3000+ entity notes (goals, deals, calendar, people, past decisions) and the web. Then the tournament runs: Swiss rounds, pairwise matchups. The tournament prompt: "Which task produces higher expected return per hour of execution time? Maximize total value over time. Value compounds: a system that saves 10 hours every week is worth more than a one-time task of equal difficulty. Work and personal tasks compete on the same axis." Over time each task gets its own ELO. If context changes, then ratings shift. A board meeting at eight weeks out loses more matchups than at two weeks out. Runs 3x/day. Been running the same tournament on my to-read list too. Same brain context, different axis to maximize value per period.

Nikesh Arora makes $288M/year in salary. More than Tim Cook, Sundar Pichai and Satya Nadella. He turned Palo Alto Networks from $19B to $120B in 5 years. Previously built Google’s Europe Business ($8B) and Softbank. The highest paid CEO you’ve never heard of: 🧵

A big thank you to @bashogry for joining Finch all hands today! It was amazing to hear your experiences growing Plaid from a dozen employees to a $13B valuation. We think there are a lot of parallels between how Plaid disrupted the digital finance space and what Finch is building in the employment space.

Congrats, @kushalbyatnal!
