Andrew

Jenn

Dan

Amanda

1. Submitted final draft of my CUNY abstract.
2. Emailed a lot with Wes about running regression analyses on his data for his CUNY abstract.
3. Finished making 2 posters for the CSLI workshop (hahahaha).
4. Ran a study on uncertainty, looking at how 1) the amount of time an item is visible on people's certainty of their labels, 2) the relationship between people's certainty judgements and the kinds of phrases they'd use to communicate a label to another person. It's a work in progress... but I'm allegedly submitting an abstract on it on Wednesday to XPrag (hahahaha moment numero dos of the week).
5. Met with Stephanie Tellex (robotics speaker), and she was SUPER excited about basically everything I had to say... She offered me a post-doc position in her lab... and asked if I would give a talk at Brown... so... that was a thing that happened.
6. Flew to SF. Enjoyed not being in Rochester (this is a prediction, but my prior on this is pretty strong).
