Supporting the Grieving Student
The vast majority of children experience the death of a close family member or friend by the time they complete high school. Whether involving a personal loss or one that affects the entire school or community, bereavement can have a profound and long-term impact on children’s psychological adjustment, academic achievement, and personal development. School professionals can play a vital role in helping students learn coping strategies that accelerate their adjustment and minimize their distress, maladaptive coping mechanisms, and behavioral difficulties. Yet most educators and other school professionals have had limited to no professional training on how to support grieving students.
Presented by David J. Schonfeld, MD, a nationally renowned expert on childhood bereavement and school crisis, this edWebinar provides the essential information you need to provide sensitive, appropriate support to grieving students of all ages. Learn how to:
– Initiate conversations with children and their families related to deaths of family members and friends
– Support students when feelings of guilt affect adjustment to a loss
– Provide practical advice on issues such as funeral attendance of children
– Appreciate the importance of long-term follow-up after a significant loss
In addition to providing practical information on supporting grieving students, Dr. Schonfeld also highlights a free, practitioner-oriented website, www.grievingstudents.org. Dr. Schonfeld introduces the site’s comprehensive materials on bereavement, developed for educators and other school professionals by the Coalition to Support Grieving Students.
Pre-K through high school teachers, librarians, school and district leaders, and other school professionals interested in learning more about how to provide appropriate support to grieving students will benefit from watching this recorded edWebinar.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.
- These are slides of the talk given at IEEE International Conference on Software Testing Verification and Validation Workshop, ICSTW 2022.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
