Hey look I'm giving a talk!
A stark reminder that COVID isn't over... a vaccinated friend tested positive a day after I hung out with her indoors unmasked. Her vaccinated neighbor also tested positive. I am currently self-isolating and keeping my fingers crossed.
My PhD will be my shortest degree... 🤔 Which is to say I had a weirdly long masters program because I kept taking time off to work 😂
@michellearning Congratulations Michelle! So proud of you! You did a fantastic job! 🎉🎊👍
I passed my dissertation defense! Some other exciting news to be announced soon 🤩
I had amazing coding teachers during my PhD: the undergrads and masters students I mentored who actually studied computer science 🥰
I held onto my conference badges because I thought it’d be fun to look back at all the fun conferences I attended during my PhD... but pretty sure I’ve attended more virtual conferences than irl ones at this point 😅
To improve dissertation-writing accountability, I've been sharing the daily hours I work on my dissertation and silently Zoom co-working with academics friends... all of whom I've met online. A part of me finds this totally weird... but hey, it works.
Mentors, our job is to help each individual identify and pursue their goals, not replicate ours.
I couldn't resist. With contributions from @maxhkw
When I lived in Seattle, I planned my week around when I was gonna ski. When I first returned to the Bay, I thought a little about Tahoe, and proceeded to book all my days with meetings and work. The life of skiing every week now feels so distant 🤔⛷ paulgraham.com/cities.html
When you try to open a new door, do you try to yank it up? Likely, no. Why should your robot continue to do so! Check out our #ICRA2021 paper on learning action spaces for efficient contact-rich manipulation. paper: arxiv.org/abs/2103.15793 youtu.be/7iFRdvV_pTU
