So, so cool to spend time with one of my very first grad students, Jamin Halberstadt and his spouse. Remembering our 1000s of research meetings discussing really great ideas!

I’m curious what the media means by the Midwest and the Great Lakes states getting a ton of snow. We have none and there is none in the forecast. So I take the news as ill defined? I think just focusing on the states of PA, OH, and NY is more precise.

Nice that the Times covered the Farm/Art DTour in Southern Wisconsin

Watched the Donna Summer doc and am remembering how amazing it was to dance to Dim All the Lights .... So many memories. 😀 www.youtube.com/watch?v=If13...

Amazing December day for a long bike ride apparently wearing my bike helmet backwards…

Have a few places to visit

Wonderful concert last night by my childhood friend, singer-songwriter Lucy Kaplansky, at the ever-fun venue in Fort Atkinson, WI, Cafe Carpe.

Great talk by Ben Armstrong from MIT’s Industrial Performance Center for our NRT program INTEGRATE (Integrating Robots into the Future of Work - learn all about it here: shorturl.at/doTXZ) on the success (and failure) of automation.

Just cresting peak fall colors.

Good morning with no filters applied. No AI needed.

Watching Suits and teaching about attachment and emotion tomorrow... So here's a PSA: The Spinners really WERE one of the best bands of their era. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6Neg...
