@Mandy_Kerr @AmandaCamaratoo SAME!!


This is one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen. My favourite bit is the epic slow-mo of @AgileSquirrel screaming (happily) as we got pounded by waves on the front of the boat at the 0:49 mark! πŸ˜‚ BRAVO @WoodyZuill!! #yow17 https://t.co/KU8M2ldJEc


FML. Second time in a week there’s been a false fire alarm at hotel. This is what 3:45am looks like from the lobby. https://t.co/Q8DMmi9Scl https://t.co/vjBkkM6yt9

It’s important for developers to learn about visualisations, especially for big data and ML projects. It helps you sense-check the results and also share with non-devs on the team, says @lynnlangit. #yow17 https://t.co/T4g0oq9tuO


This is the bit that blows my mind – we can actually edit out diseases from the genome. @lynnlangit and @allPowerde are working on making this more reliable. #yow17 https://t.co/VNuS2C6kmR


The driving factor for @allPowerde’s CSIRO team using serverless was cost. That means every second their lambda function was running really mattered. Optimisation was key. #yow17 https://t.co/ACyqTdTs77

This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.
