I have goals this summer of doing my own research and writing up the results, as well as doing some general-purpose technical reading. I’m doing great on the technical reading. I read a journal article in the morning, and I’ve read half of a queuing theory book as well as half of “Thinking, Fast and Slow” by Kahneman. I’ve had some ideas for my own research, but have had trouble motivating myself to put them on paper/computer. Will keep trying.
