I get very excited whenever I manage to have a conversation auf Deutsch with a random person. This nice lady walking past our garden asked me if rents in the area were expensive. 👍 für mein Deutsch; 👎 für die teure Miete.


@Geek_Manager Hmmm, @jennapederson is in MN… Maybe someone in her network can help?


@Geek_Manager @jennapederson Not to mention the amazing @lynnlangit…

@rdrktr Not quite. 😂 (Rodd’s response when I showed him the Google Lens results: “Organize the world’s butts and make them universally accessible and useful.”)


@jennapederson Nice! We should keep an internal Thought Leaderboard for the AWS folks who’ve played. (There’s me, @cobusbernard… who else?)



Important Note

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.
