I have a good Software Engineering student who was going to do an internship at a startup, but the startup just canceled all internships. Does anyone know of any last minute opportunities this summer? RT's for reach appreciated!

#Dagstuhl Theories of Programming Seminar

In this week's People of ACM, we profile Thomas Zimmermann, a Senior Principal Researcher at Microsoft Research and Chair of ACM SIGSOFT. In the interview, he explains how artificial intelligence will change software development. Read the full interview here: bit.ly/3xwYiwV

What’s so hard about doing a #PhD anyway? 🤷‍♀️ NOT a moany, sarky post but an overview of 5 unique challenges of #phdlife + some ways to face them w/ more grace, clarity, ease, joy A 🧵 #phdchat #AcademicTwitter OpenAcademics PhD Voice - Independently Run #AcademicChatter The PhD Place

Something people don't appreciate about qualitative research is the amount of time it requires. Between scheduling, conducting, transcribing, & analyzing (& re-analyzing!) interviews; member checking; and being reflexive, it can take years to finish a study of 30 participants.

Happy to share that our paper "Software Security during Modern Code Review: The Developer's Perspective" has been accepted at FSE 2025! Congrats to the coauthor Alberto Bacchelli!! 🎉

I am excited to announce that in August I will join @isrcmu in CMU School of Computer Science at Carnegie Mellon University as an Associate Professor of Computer Science! I will continue my work in SE and accessibility to create a truly inclusive technology workplace that accommodates everyone’s needs. (1/3)

I’m happy to announce that after working at 2 very interesting startups in the past four years, I am now continuing my research on developer #productivity, #flow and #wellbeing as a full-time senior researcher in the HASEL group UZH IfI & have several exciting projects planned

Amazing talk by Alberto Bacchelli on evidence-based software engineering. We need so much more of that, but with people like Alberto working on it, I’m sure we’ll get there! vimeo.com/749070018

Heartfelt congratulations to now Dr. Larissa Braz for very successfully (summa cum laude!) defending her PhD thesis today. Topic: "Secure Code Review." Thank you, Larissa, it was a great honor to have you as a Ph.D. student ZEST!

Watching Alexander Lill's phd proposal defense from a lovely spot at the lake (before joining a future of work event OST – Ostschweizer Fachhochschule)

Today at 11:30 in room 102, Roy will present our paper on Semi-Automatic, Inline and Collaborative Web Page Code Curations. This was an awesome tool and study to learn how we can support developers when connecting relevant webpages with their code. conf.researchr.org/details/icse-2…

Yesterday Alexander Lill and I had the chance to welcome the first participants at #ICSE24. Today, we had the pleasure to welcome the MSR community for #MSR24. If you are curious about the recent research in the MSR community, join us at *Grande Auditorium*

Fantastic experience with amazing people at MSR 2025 (Doriane Olewicki, Alexander Lill, Nanin, Eduardo Madeira) 🤗. Volunteering in the Grande Auditorium was incredible! Big congrats to *all* volunteers and organizers! Let's keep it going for #ICSE24! 😎

Today, Alexander Lill presented our work on the helpfulness of suggesting previously asked questions&answers to developers on Discord. Learn more about the questions developers ask and why Discord is often a last resort for answering a question: hasel.dev/publication/di…

I'm thrilled to invite you to participate in my latest online study. We're testing an IDE extension designed to help developers seamlessly pick up where they left off after interruptions. You can shape tools that make development more productive! 👉 hasel.dev/tacos-study/
