My former supervisor, Dr. @Ayushi_Rastogi, has won the MSR Ric Holt Early Career Achievement Award. This award recognizes researchers "who have provided outstanding contributions in the area of mining software repositories." #tier1 x.com/msrconf/status…
We are thrilled to announce that the #MSR2025 Ric Holt Early Career Achievement Award 🏆✨goes to @Ayushi_Rastogi For contributions to addressing prominent research challenges impacting software companies, OSS communities, and society, as well her dedication to community service.
The "The Linux Memory Manager" book by Lorenzo Stoakes is finally out: nostarch.com/linux-memory-m…. We can all learn now what happens when you call `malloc()` from 1,300 pages of content ;-)
My abstract, "Patch Me If You Can—Securing the Linux Kernel," was accepted at the MSR '25 Industry Track. Mixing my roots as an OS engineer with some research. Preprint: gunnarku.github.io/preprints/Patc…
The "Thoughts on applicability" by @tituswinters is probably the best SE-related paper I read in 2024 so far. Preprint: cs.ucr.edu/~titus/applica…, JSS link: doi.org/10.1016/j.jss.…. A very welcome voice of reason from real life ;-)
Life is cyclic. I first read and tried to internalize the "Professional Engineering principles" (perspectives.mvdirona.com/2007/11/profes…) by @JrhAtMvDirona about 20 years ago at Microsoft. Two decades later, the document is still as relevant as it was then.
🏆The winner of MSR 2024 Distinguished Doctoral Research is Gunnar Kudrjavets (@gunnarku ) for their contribution to improving code review velocity by empirically challenging prominent beliefs, presenting solutions, and identifying gaps in developers' and industry needs. #MSR

Our paper "Does code review speed matter for practitioners?" (link.springer.com/article/10.100…) is a gift that keeps giving ;-) It was accepted to the journal-first track of @ICSEconf and will be presented in April of 2024 in Lisbon, Portugal. Cc: @Ayushi_Rastogi #icse2024
Our paper "Does code review speed matter for practitioners?" (doi.org/10.1007/s10664…) is now an open access article at @emsejournal. #TheNeedForSpeed @Ayushi_Rastogi @searchRUG
As a literal result of research trips to Netherlands, I ended up being a coauthor on paper in a peer-reviewed medical journal on psychoactive drugs ;-) Feel free to make fun of me ;-) ""Mystical and Affective Aspects of Psychedelic Use ...": tandfonline.com/eprint/CEXEVMG…

When your luggage is missing and nobody can tell you where it is and you wonder if the thesis defense in softshell jacket and pants is appropriate. Amor fati.
You don't have to attend my thesis defense ;-), but you should come and listen to a mix of academics and practitioners talking about various topics in SE at NorthSE 2023: search-rug.github.io/events/northse… @searchRUG @Ayushi_Rastogi
My thesis's last chapter received a timely acceptance from the EMSE (Empirical Software Engineering) journal. Will publish the preprint of "Does Code Review Speed Matter for Practitioners?" once all the legal stuff is handled. @aserebrenik @avandeursen @tvdstorm @Ayushi_Rastogi
When the printing company ships the physical copies of your dissertation to the wrong address, all you can do is think about Nietzsche and amor fati and send random emails to the empty abyss of the customer service department.
The "It Takes 6 Days to Change 1 Line of Code" (edw519.posthaven.com/it-takes-6-day…) (satirical) story is an unfortunate reflection of the reality. This is how #CodeVelocity looks IRL. A cynic may even say that "Six days - that's fast!" ;-)
A 100K is the longest I've gone during one continuous push. I will focus on the quality (e.g., speed, vertical gain) for the rest of the year. Met the goals related to the quantity aspect ;-)
The annual exercise in facing adversity. Churned out 82.81 km over the weekend at a Sri Chimnoy ultra in Seattle. To quote Patton, "May God have mercy upon my enemies because I won't." #SriChimnoy
