    My first experience of continuous delivery: hitting literal big red button on first day at @9NowAU to deploy Jumpin. That was fun.


    @aussielunix Yep, they missed that golden opportunity. 😂 @DTO @auxesis


    @aussielunix Incidentally HI! I just joined @syddevops the other day. 🙂


    @aussielunix Sadly, I already committed to Dev Drinkups that night. Definitely in Nov though!


    Enjoying #CloudFoundry Days? @pivotal’s own @starbuxman will be speaking on Cloud Native Java at #yow16 https://t.co/WQX4ez3z4J @yow_oz


    @BenToAHack LOL. I don’t work there any more, so I couldn’t possibly say. 😬

    @LukeSleeman @drnic I’m tempted to get a sheet of clear shelf liner and put that on first so I can save my stickers afterwards!


    Highlight of this morning’s tech event was delivery guy arriving and immediately assuming I was the receptionist.


    @SwiftOnSecurity I wasn’t even standing anywhere near it. He walked past like 6 guys to get to me.


    A ska cover version of a Postal Service song? YOU ARE CRUSHING IT, @Spotify DISCOVER WEEKLY PLAYLIST.

    @DamonOehlman Wait, you wrote a book?! How did I not know that!! https://t.co/lnOPDHo3hL


    @auxesis And just to hammer home one more time – you should definitely submit today’s talk for CTO Summit. 🙂 https://t.co/cLJVgnfcBV


    Listening to @MarisaWarren16 kicking off the next @elevacao_org Pitch event to a full crowd! https://t.co/VsBTQQRAkI


    Wow. @rebekahposse telling how one of her earliest VC pitches was held at a men’s only club. #elevacao #pitchready https://t.co/0ybIIbgpXK


    Silvia from @CoviuApp pitching! Coviu provided videoconferencing for last week’s #HealthHackAu. #elevacao #pitchready https://t.co/T4pclpTizG


    I really, really want this woman to say “It’s like Uber, for babysitting.”


    The cynical part of me thinks that if Drumpf brings about some sort of Handmaiden’s Tale dystopia, we won’t need apps to organise childcare.


    @madradish There was a version of that in the last season of Bojack Horseman… but it didn’t go well. 🙂


    Excellent to see panel calling out that a babysitting app needs to be inclusive of DADS too!


    @evanderkoogh She didn’t. I am disappoint.


    Only 3% of tech startups are founded by women, but they deliver 35% more ROI when funded. @MarisaWarren16 @elevacao_org


    #frocktober day 18: cocktails with the Snook. https://t.co/IEjhORaYQt https://t.co/iZKBmdEeSD


    @ButenkoMe Hey, are you in Syd or Melb? I saw you’re launching NodeGirls there and wondered if you were moving!


    RT @lucykbain: Video of SheHacks is up and looks great! Thanks @GGDSydney for hosting us! https://t.co/B5ssLuqa7u


    @ButenkoMe Ahh, boo. I’ll be there the week after. But glad to know you haven’t left us permanently!


    @ButenkoMe @sydjs Yes indeed! I’ll see you there. 😀


    Dang, YOW Melbs is sold out! Get yourself on the waiting list, or better yet – use it as an excuse for a few days in Syd or Brissie. 😄 https://t.co/DKC8UTyOfP


    @trycatchally @developerjack I think I just sputtered, “I DON’T EVEN WORK HERE!” Was too flabbergasted for anything more cutting.


    I really, really wish @Internode would allow me to change my mobile plan NOW rather than wait another 2+ weeks. 🙁


    @Internode It’s not so much the inconvenience as the expense I’m going to incur going over my included data. 🙁


    @simonraikallen @trycatchally @developerjack “Why did you assume me? You walked past six guys. I’m not even standing near the desk!”


    @simonraikallen @trycatchally @developerjack But he’d have just gotten huffy and I’d have looked overly sensitive.


    @simonraikallen @trycatchally @developerjack This is the problem with microaggressions. There’s no good response, really.

    Very excited to get to meet @unclebobmartin himself! Check out his workshop “Clean Code Using TDD” https://t.co/O1PKNVmsnQ #yow16 @yow_oz


    @stuy1974 Hey Stu! I saw your tweet but the link seems broken. I actually work for YOW, so I’m keen to get it fixed. Where’d you find it?


    @sammy_lee12 Denied. 🙁 What’d I do wrong? https://t.co/BgfTaZoMDB


    RT @bigyahu: Sydney there is no #hackathon more worthwhile and heartwarming than #Techfugees 5-6 Nov. Register https://t.co/u8vo48ib4X


    RT @mobywhale: I’ll be speaking at @sydjs this Wed about getting over the fear of public speaking. Looking forward to giving my first talk…


    @glasnt @hawkieowl Beware. It’s a time suck, and it’s more like computers than you think. 🙂


    @hawkieowl @glasnt Boo. Well, next time I’m in Melbs, I can teach you to knit so you’re prepared for such future situations.


    RT @yow_oz: We have a couple of familiar faces joining us at #yow16. See who is coming in our speaker lineup https://t.co/KBTGMY4TJn


    I believe I’m now signed up to every tech meetup group in Sydney. Sorry for the https://t.co/Zte0vNL8Bk spam – I didn’t know it did that. 🙁


    @cathjones0 Ugh. Did you get spammed? Sorry. Yeah, pretty much. That’s my job now. 😂


    @hawkieowl @glasnt @freakboy3742 YES. This is all very relevant to my interests. 😀

    @lucykbain @developerjack @Meetup AHHHH, phew! Thanks for that. I guess then I’m doing them a favour by highlighting the issue. 😂


    @stuy1974 Thanks for that. Looks like the link is correct now. I’ll see if I can figure out why it changed!


    I may not be enough of a morning person for breakfast networking events.

    @DevinDavis @DTO @cloudfoundry We should’ve had a hashtag! Hard to find others tweeting.


    Clever. @DTO has Prod Eng team dedicated to platform and dev tools. @canva has something similar. Emerging best practice! #cloudfoundry

    @CathyEdwards86 @auxesis 😳I find myself reevaluating all life choices that led to me NOT working at DTO. #puns4life


    You know that thing where you hear a word a lot and it starts to lose all meaning? Cloud. Cloud. Clouuuudddd.


    OH last night: “I remember when Operations just meant the guy who changed the tape drive backup every week.” #oldtimer


    New metric: Using number of stickers on a dev’s laptop as measure of their level of passion and innovativeness. Heh. @drnic #CloudFoundry

    @msharp @virtualwolf @yayKM We did ours 4 yrs ago with Harvey Norman. Really happy! We went induction too. https://t.co/phCG3UIOj6


    The crowd is gathering for #HealthHackAu Sydney! Pitches and judging are kicking off. https://t.co/uYlvpfxV7F


    The view from the judging table is pretty fun. #HealthHackAu @paulinesu https://t.co/kPksINfp7b


    @drwitty_knitter Thanks!!


    I pinched my hand and now it’s bleeding, and then the taxi driver asked if I was pregnant. So now I have to burn the world down. 🔥😡


    Well done to everyone at #HealthHackAu SYD. Judging was so difficult because the caliber of hacks and pitches was really high!


    Moët + the Snook’s Licorice Stout = a Black Licorice Velvet. Tasty! https://t.co/kJuO3wDimn https://t.co/Mn5fQ17LZ2


    #frocktober day 16: I cut my hand, and then a taxi driver asked if I was preggers. Annoyed. https://t.co/tGOrIrKhIF https://t.co/cFFimCVeBa


    @mark_sabbatical I felt like trying something new.


    @mark_sabbatical Mostly like champagne. The stout was rather lost.
