Debugging Hiring: What Went Right and What Went Wrong in the Technical Interview Process
2020 IEEE/ACM 42ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING: SOFTWARE ENGINEERING IN SOCIETY (ICSE-SEIS 2021), pp. 71–80.
author keywords: career; hiring practices; interview feedback; opinion mining; reviews; software engineering; technical interviews; whiteboard
TL;DR:
The findings provide a set of guidelines to help companies improve their hiring pipeline practices, such as being deliberate about phrasing and language during initial contact with the candidate, providing candidates with constructive feedback after their interviews, and bringing salary transparency and long-term career discussions into offers and negotiations.

Here We Go Again: Why Is It Difficult for Developers to Learn Another Programming Language?
2020 ACM/IEEE 42ND INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING (ICSE 2020), pp. 691–701.
author keywords: interference theory; learning; program comprehension; programming environments; programming languages
TL;DR:
An empirical study of Stack Overflow questions across 18 different programming languages hypothesized that previous knowledge could potentially interfere with learning a new programming language, and revealed that programmers make failed attempts to relate a new programming language with what they already know.

How Should Compilers Explain Problems to Developers?
ESEC/FSE'18: PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2018 26TH ACM JOINT MEETING ON EUROPEAN SOFTWARE ENGINEERING CONFERENCE AND SYMPOSIUM ON THE FOUNDATIONS OF SOFTWARE ENGINEERING, pp. 633–643.
author keywords: communication theory; compilers; debugging; error messages; explanations; Stack Overflow
TL;DR:
Because error messages present poor explanations, theories of explanation---such as Toulmin's model of argument---can be applied to improve their quality, and three practical design principles are contributed to inform the design and evaluation of compiler error messages.

author keywords: career; interpersonal skills; technical interview; software engineer
TL;DR:
To determine what criteria interviewers value, mock technical interviews with software engineer candidates at a university and evaluations from interviewers are conducted, using a grounded theory approach.

Designing for Dystopia Software Engineering Research for the Post-apocalypse
FSE'16: PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2016 24TH ACM SIGSOFT INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON FOUNDATIONS OF SOFTWARE ENGINEERING, pp. 924–927.
author keywords: culture; design fiction; dystopia; ideation; post-apocalypse; software engineering
TL;DR:
This paper demonstrates through three pop culture dystopias, Battlestar Galactica, Fallout 3, and Children of Men, how reflecting on dystopian scenarios provides research opportunities as well as implications, such as making research accessible to non-experts, that are relevant to the authors' present.

From Quick Fixes to Slow Fixes: Reimagining Static Analysis Resolutions to Enable Design Space Exploration
32ND IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE MAINTENANCE AND EVOLUTION (ICSME 2016), pp. 212–222.
TL;DR:
An extension to the FindBugs defect finding tool is implemented, called FixBugs, an interactive resolution approach within the Eclipse development environment that prioritizes other design criteria to the successful application of suggested fixes.

Commit Bubbles
2015 IEEE/ACM 37TH IEEE INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING, VOL 2, pp. 631–634.
TL;DR:
This contribution is a fragment-oriented concept called Commit Bubbles that will allow developers to construct systematic commit histories that adhere to version control best practices with less cognitive effort, and in a way that integrates with their as-needed coding workflows.

FUSE: A Reproducible, Extendable, Internet-scale Corpus of Spreadsheets
12TH WORKING CONFERENCE ON MINING SOFTWARE REPOSITORIES (MSR 2015), pp. 486–489.
TL;DR:
A corpus, called Fuse, containing 2,127,284 URLs that return spreadsheets (and their HTTP server responses), and 249,376 unique spreadsheets, contained within a public web archive of over 26.83 billion pages is described.

How Developers Visualize Compiler Messages: A Foundational Approach to Notification Construction
2014 SECOND IEEE WORKING CONFERENCE ON SOFTWARE VISUALIZATION (VISSOFT), pp. 87–96.
TL;DR:
It is shown that a foundational set of visual annotations that aid developers in better comprehending error messages when compilers expose their internal reasoning allow developers to give significantly better self-explanations when compared against today's dominant visualization paradigm.
