We have a wall! The construction zone in the parking lot is starting to look like a house🏠. Today, students raised their first walls. Fun to have @NorthMetroTV there for this milestone moment 🎥 #SLPPantherProud

Progress rarely happens in a straight line. It typically unfolds in loops.

Day by day, it can feel like you’re spinning your wheels. If you look back on your trajectory over months or years, you can see forward movement.

Major growth is the result of many seemingly minor turns.

By failing 15% of the time, artificial intelligence systems learn best. Feels like there’s a lesson there. #PLconf22 @myrondueck
