What I see that proves an (unfortunate) point.

I did this podcast. Hope you find it interesting!

Another podcast I did... PrincetonConsultants INFORMS

I say: “Why stochastic optimization doesn’t work in practice” Dilbert Tells The Odds by Scott Adams dilbert.com/strip/2020-08-… via Dilbert

The OR Team in the Lustig household enjoyed Tuesday’s cocktail of the day from @INFORMS2020 . Helps to have all of the ingredients!

⁦Anne G. Robinson⁩ and I virtually enjoying our traditional White Russian ⁦@INFORMS2020⁩

In Florida we drink the Cuba Libre by the pool after INFORMS2020 . Kudos to the @INFORMS staff for a great conference.

Some fun work I did. Optimization meets Rugby!

I was on the INFORMS task force that produced this report available info.informs.org/analytics-care…

We're proud to share that Irv Lustig has been named an INFORMS 2021 Fellow for his achievement and dedication to the profession. Congrats, Irv, a well deserved honor! informs.org/About-INFORMS/…

If babies can learn it, should I???

Excited to report that I’m on an Edelman finalist team.

It was an honor to interview this great OR leader.

Off to #2022analytics on an extremely early flight because my flight was cancelled yesterday. I effectively woke up at 2:30am central time. Expected to be a zombie this evening at the welcome reception.

Interesting plenary by Maxine Bédat at @INFORMS2022 about the fashion industry and the supply chain of clothing from source to product to waste and it’s negative impact on the world. Makes me feel good that I rarely buy new clothes!

Glad I attended the OR in Practice session on opportunities, challenges and best practices. 4 good speakers including my friend Michael Watson #INFORMS2022

#INFORMS2022 Anne G. Robinson Warren Hearnes Elcin Cetinkaya Prabha Thanikasalem panel on supply chain risk and agility. New opportunities for machine learning and optimization

Segev Wasserkruv IBM Research talked @2023_analytics with a conclusion that solution verification should be part of any optimization solution. We’ve been doing that PrincetonConsultants as part of our standard best practices for a few years.

Remembering how I self taught myself to program on a TI SR-56 calculator in 1976 at the age of 15. I consider myself quite “crafty”. 😁
