We encourage undergraduate, master’s, and early-stage PhD students interested in programming languages to apply for PLMW at PLDI 2026. It is a great opportunity to learn from researchers, build connections, and explore future directions in PL. Apply here: pldi26.sigplan.org/home/PLMW…
Looking forward to giving the #MIP talk with Song during the #ICSE2026 Awards Session on April 15 (tinyurl.com/icse16mip). @ICSEconf

I’m thankful these ideas continue to have lasting impact 10 years later. 🙏
These two papers almost bookend a story.
The 1st was among the earliest to show how #DeepLearning could be used for software defect prediction.
The 2nd focused on the deployment in practice: imbalanced data and future-data leakage.

We measured the effects of more AI coding agents, with the same conclusion: Development velocity (commits, lines added) increases, but it is short lived, and it comes at the cost of code quality and technical debt (static analysis warnings and code complexity go up substantially)
