At SAPLING'23 #SAPLING #SAPLING23. Thanks to Julian for capturing this image.
SAPLING Francois Gauthier from Oracle Labs is talking about /Runtime and Software Supply Chain Security Research at Oracle Labs/ called RASPunzel. This is of a huge interest to me as my student worked on a related project called Macaron from Oracle Labs. #SAPLING #SAPLING23
SAPLING also has Software Testing! Yanqi Su (ANU) is now talking about /Constructing a System Knowledge Graph of User Tasks and Failures from Bug Reports to Support Soap Opera Testing/ #SAPLING23 #SAPLING
For those who are attending SAPLING I am giving a talk today called "Dancing to Unknown Music: Learning Black-Box Program Input Grammars with Prefix Queries". See you there.
Running LLMs from a single file! With LLamaFile from Mozilla. All you need is
curl -LO https://huggingface.co/jartine/llava-v1.5-7B-GGUF/resolve/main/llamafile-server-0.1-llava-v1.5-7b-q4
chmod 755 llamafile-server-0.1-llava-v1.5-7b-q4
./llamafile-server-0.1-llava-v1.5-7b-q4
Now, I am waiting for an easy way to finetune an LLM from a Mac (this is mostly doable now) or using a CPU, and we will soon be within reach of the world of custom agents promised by @cstross
Only 4 more days left to go for [SBFT'24 fuzzing competition](https://sbft24.github.io/tools/fuzzing). Please apply if you have a fuzzer that can beat the world competition!
Reminder: we're hiring (tenure-track equivalent) at the University of #Sydney in #ComputerScience, deadline Nov 30 (🇦🇺 time)!

A great survey about use of large language models in software engineering from Fan et al. here.
Part of our cybersecurity training we have to undergo at USyd. But is this quite right? surely if I am following all other recommendations, including my personal details in my /password/ makes it easier to remember, makes it longer, while harder for dictionary attacks to succeed?
