I’ve been doing an unholy amount of weeding recently and keep seeing these little spiders fleeing my progress. Many are carrying a tiny white ball and so I looked them up out of curiosity.
Apparently they are “Rabid Wolf Spiders”, which sounds like they themselves got to pick it out and sought something impressively terrifying so that humans would leave them alone. It’s certainly a misnomer since spiders cannot be rabid.
The white ball is an egg sac.

Querying Large Automotive Software Models: Agentic vs. Direct LLM Approaches
Large language models (LLMs) offer new opportunities for interacting with complex software artifacts, such as software models, through natural language. They present especially promising benefits for large software models that are difficult to grasp in their entirety, making traditional interaction and analysis approaches challenging. This paper investigates two approaches for leveraging LLMs to answer questions over software models: direct prompting, where the whole software model is provided …

Decision Models for Selecting Architecture Patterns and Strategies in Quantum Software Systems
Quantum software represents disruptive technologies in terms of quantum-specific software systems, services, and applications - leverage the principles of quantum mechanics via programmable quantum bits (Qubits) that manipulate quantum gates (QuGates) - to achieve quantum supremacy in computing. Quantum software architecture enables quantum software developers to abstract away implementation-specific details (i.e., mapping of Qubits and QuGates to high-level architectural components and connect…
