Escape from the Activity Room

Escape from Microsoft

On the morning of September 17, 2014, in the conference room on the 12th floor of Microsoft Research Asia. The boss just returned to Beijing after a month-long international conference, and I nervously reported the unsatisfactory progress of the past month at the group meeting. In the previous few days, my heart was beating wildly, fearing that the boss would see through my nature of not working hard. Unexpectedly, the boss did not scold me after the report, but said that my model has made great progress compared to a month ago. However, we both clearly realized that our work could not catch up with the NSDI conference deadline on September 26.
