Closing Remarks
summary
Closing remarks list concrete habits, outcomes and a looming deadline: advice to make progress every day, judge work as new interesting difficult, use focused two‑hour blocks (Starbucks) and keep five daily diaries tracking inbox zero, work hours and meals. Records include a teaching award, a PLDI paper on quantum computing and a distinguished service role helping hire a new conference manager. Notes ACM plans to flip the Digital Library to open access by January 1, 2026 and recounts small personal failures and recoveries.
