The most fulfilling part of receiving the Harlan D Mills award at #icse2025 yesterday was the opportunity to acknowledge my collaborators over many years. And the most enjoyable part was celebrating with lovely colleagues.

Very grateful to IEEE Computer Society for the honour

The only way for errors to occur in a program is by being put there by the author. No other mechanisms are known. - Harlan Mills

A wise man… 😜

No regrets…

I regret to inform you that software engineering will transition to requirements engineering.

Excellent.

Relieved by my career choice 😜

An aphorism… (?)

Your system can generate potential new failure modes much more quickly than you can patch the old ones.

Or even a summer break!

Lovely piece, thank for writing it, Arosha. I now regularly recommend to others the book by Sarah Jaffe that you cite, ever since you recommended it to me 6 months ago. I really like your Buddhist perspective, using the lenses of loving kindness, sympathetic joy, compassion, and equanimity. HNY! 🙏🏽

Bashar Nuseibeh @basharnuseibeh.bsky.social · Jan 1

Thank you, Shane! I’ve never had anything I’ve written being called an “exhilarating blast“, but I’ll take it (and maybe frame it!) 🙏🏾🙏🏾

Glad you liked the piece. In this age of AI mania, it seems to be aging well. 🤞🏽

Bashar Nuseibeh @basharnuseibeh.bsky.social · Jan 1

isn't that what mansplaining is supposed to be? 😜

I hope my splaining was manly enough 😜

Yes, a remarkable man. I am frustrated when he is frequently headline labelled as a “one term president“ as if it some kind of major blemish on his legacy, when in fact it left him with energy and unfinished business of doing the more important humanitarian work of actually improving people’s lives
