@benhermann Thanks a lot for the visit, the interesting discussions and for helping finish all the sushi and tapas! 😉👌
My group and I had two great days in Paderborn meeting with
@guybrush and his group. Lots of new research ideas. It was great to be back at HNI. They still have my poster in the hallway!
Very much enjoying the talk here at HNI by @benhermann on challenges and solutions in program analysis in large-scale software repositories.
Excited to welcome Julia Rubin (UBC) this summer for a research visit, sponsored by a prestigious Humboldt scholarship! Looking forward to joint research combining analytic and constructive techniques to secure the software of tomorrow!

@xdevroey I agree that such papers are still largely lacking. I hope to be writing one of these eventually. Should be useful.
Currently working on a survey in the area of #AI4SE, I am seriously considering a "hall of shame" of the worst papers we found. It's truly unbelievable what kind of rubbish is published at some venues. The recipe seems: Take some random input representation, apply some random embedding, use some randomly chosen classifier, if you feel fancy use an attention mechanism (but don't say which one, let alone why), pick some subset of some badly biased data set, report success! Nothing can be learned from such work! Really, nothing. It's so disappointing.
@fm_volker Yes sounds like the same idea. I think the two things that might have changed now is (1) simple addition of biometry as a second factor and (2) a relatively clever infrastructure for exchanging keys securely across devices.
@fm_volker good question. Maybe. Honestly I don't know much about those.

In the past weeks, I have taken a first look at #Passkey, the new password-less authentication mechanism recently made available by Apple, Google and Microsoft. How does it work? What are its properties? Find some answers in my article here:

On my way to our #Dagstuhl seminar on the Empirical Evaluation of Secure Development Processes. Looking forward to an interesting and intense week of discussions! Co-organized with Laurie Williams, Sam Weber, Brendan Murphy and Steve Lipner. #SDLC
