@sazzad_14 @uarizona @uazresearch Congratulations!

This work is part of our broader effort to enhance the resilience of software supply chain ecosystems. Although protestware is mostly symbolic in nature, it offers a nice lens to study trust misuses in software built around reusable third-party, packages. @uarizona @uazresearch

Libraries turned into Protestware is an emerging software supply chain concern. This week, Tanner Finken will present our paper on Protestware Libraries at FSE'25 (@FSEconf). I won't be there, but please feel free to join the talk. I am available by email for follow-ups too!

@DrSanchariDas @DePaulU @tiktok_us This looks interesting

Amazing experience working with the incredible team @DePaulU 🙏 My 1st paper submitted NSPW 2024 nspw.org/2024 Will share final version soon incorporating feedback from the NSPW team (thanks reviewers+attendees; I couldn’t attend this time😔) #Misinformation @tiktok_us

No One Needs Good Journalism In 2018, I left the comfort of Delhi to start @MainMediaHun in one of India’s most backward regions, Seemanchal-Kosi in Bihar. Our mission has been simple yet powerful:

No wonder that genuine EB1 applications are backlogged because a bunch of people figured out how to game the criteria @USCIS needs to refer to publication metrics from Google scholar metrics

If you have been a victim of pig-butchering scams or know someone who has been a victim of such scams, your participation or sharing of our study information is appreciated. Feel free to reach out for additional information.

@AmericanAir Update: the 10 minutes has become 70 minutes now. Boarded but no update on why the plane isn’t moving. Others have now given up. So much mismanagement for a short flight. F you @AmericanAir

I was threatened to be barred from boarding. Just now, they announced the pilots will be here in 10 mins. TBH, i don’t believe a word that I hear from @AmericanAir

The flight from Philadelphia to Albuquerque has been a nightmare. I am at DFW for more than 7 hours now (12hrs+ in total) but the connecting flight’s status is still unknown. @AmericanAir #usesec24

@AmericanAir Not flying American again!

@afsahanwar We sincerely regret the keep back. Operations will be doing all necessary to get the flights upward and onward. If you need connecting flight rebooking, please DM your confirmation code.

@AmericanAir This is utter mismanagement! No excuses please.
