Today I turn 60 – and what a journey this has been! Grateful for family, friends, students, colleagues, and a scientific community that keeps me inspired. The big party? You’ll have to wait four years, when I hit my (binary) 1,000,000th birthday. 😉

Check out #SMeW — a great opportunity for students to learn, connect & grow!
I co-chaired its 2019 launch (with Lori Pollock & Christian Kästner, with tremendous support by #ICSE19 GC Jo Atlee) and coined the name (yes, the duck 🦆)! @icseconf.bsky.social

Fun fact: Of my nine papers that got a long-term impact award, none got a “best paper” award when they were published - and conversely, none of my “best paper”-awarded papers got an impact award later. Is this a common phenomenon?
