One of the nice things about being old and having grand

students, and great grand students, and everything else

is, that you can not only take pride in your own

accomplishments, but you can take pride in the

accomplishments of those that you may have influenced.

And so I'm really proud of you guys.

Well, we feel like the grand students when we talk to our

professors like Jerry and Brad.

The thing that makes me feel old is that I've got grand

students of my own now.

Well, you can take pride in all of them.

So Jerry, you've retired.

You retired about two years ago, but I don't think there's

been a day when I haven't seen you in the office.

Well, I'm not here every day, but I'm here

a lot of the time.

Yeah.

I'm retired like Leo Breiman was retired, and for a long

time, Charles Stein was retired.

He came in every day for a long, long time.

And Leo, many of his best accomplishments were after he

retired, research accomplishments.

But it seems you still feel excited by the field.

Oh, yeah.

There's more to do, definitely more to do.

And of course, very gratified that something that I was

intellectually interested in for all this time has now

become very popular and very important.

I mean, data has risen to the top.

My only regret is two of my mentors who also pushed it

probably harder and more effectively than I did,

namely, John Tukey and Leo Breiman, are not around to

actually see how data has triumphed over,

say, theorem proving.

내 삶의 인생작을 떠올릴 때 캐릭터에 대한 감정이입이 주인공에서 주변인물로 옮겨갔다.

뭐 이를테면 누구나 알만한 예로 이를 설명해보자면 감정이입 대상이 이카리 신지에서 카지 료우지로 옮겨간 것이다.

물론 이는 예에 불과하므로 섣부른 오해는 삼가 바란다.
