I’ve had the privilege of hearing @lindamciver speak a couple times, and I always come away feeling very inspired! So happy she’s part of #awscommunity Day this year. 🙂 https://t.co/0ZyDMijuuX

@SarahMoran Are you still here? Fairly certain I just spotted you as I was tending my toastie. 😂

When you see @SarahMoran in the airport lounge, you just have to take a selfie! https://t.co/8bNuapLVaV

@Jonwestenberg I could probably sing that album straight through. It was basically the soundtrack to my freshman year of uni. 🙂

PagerDuty reports 750,000 sleep-interrupting incident notifications, @mattstratton says. “Why should you care if you’re not the one carrying the pager?” Because a non-zero percentage of those were received by the person sharing my bedroom! #dotcnz #dotc19 https://t.co/Bh7zjDZt7u

---

Incident Commanders shouldn’t also be resolvers. If they are the best person to resolve, they should hand off Commander responsibility. As Ron Swanson says, “don’t half-ass two jobs. Whole ass one job.” 👏 @mattstratton #dotcnz #dotc19 https://t.co/TzwEigC3Vc

---

As Incident Commander, the phrase you want to avoid when assigning tasks is “Can someone…?” You need to make a clear assignment, time box it, and get acknowledgement. Avoid bystander effect. @mattstratton #dotcnz #dotc19 https://t.co/fg0CMMvcvV

@meacod @GlennSarti @auxesis He wasn’t talking about working environment – he was talking about culture from, like, a sociological perspective. There are experts on how artifacts, values, and behaviours interoperate… and we aren’t them. 😂

Sorry I had to run to the airport #dotcnz! Absolutely loved getting to meet you and be part of this amazing @DevOpsTalks NZ event. ❤️👋

@DefSol Thank you so much! You were an excellent substitute @nathenharvey (and you didn’t sneak any GCP stickers into my bag)… 😂

@software_opal That would be more understandable and less disgusting.

@annie_parker I honestly don’t understand it. I can take it (and maybe even appreciate it) as part of a stew, but raw? It’s actively offensive.

Occasionally in life, there are trying times that show you who you really are.

If you’re not releasing quickly, you can’t fail quickly. It takes too long to experiment, and you end up with a mediocre product. @amirmohtasebi sharing some hard-won lessons. #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/yUic2m5pK6

PCR runbooks can be really helpful for on-call engineers, but they can also introduce bias when folks rigidly follow steps rather than look at the problem in front of them. @amirmohtasebi #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/QNgBRvQ23n

DevOps is all about flow. A gate stops you in your tracks – it’s a handoff, it’s wasteful. A stile allows the flow to continue. #dotcnz #dotc19 https://t.co/YXor7zorde

Grrrrrrrrrrrr. 🤬 https://t.co/4rTE1EHyRV

@johnallsopp Next time a conference vendor gives me a straight cut shirt, I won’t be responsible for my actions. 🔥

---

Penultimate talk of the day is Mike Owen and Ankit Gupta sharing @SparkNZ DevOps journey. They started with a daunting set of issues: legacy apps, decades of technical debt, 12-18mo delivery cycles, and more. #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/HhdymZgvH2

---

Experiment with a centralised Ops Team failed to deliver on intended benefits, so they tried embedding Ops into Dev teams. That worked better, but still not ideal. #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/pLPFkwvwzj

---

Eventually @SparkNZ ended on a modified version of Spotify model, which has allowed them to move through a number of initiatives and deliver faster. #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/WCnaqvipWa

@mmastertheone I saw. 🤬

Loving the energy that @riferrei is bringing to the last talk of the day. Hey, he’s Deadpool! 😂 #dotc19 #dotcnz #devops https://t.co/XENMcml4h9

Engaged in a long side channel debate about whether assuming familiarity with Star Wars in a tech conference talk is “subtly discriminatory.” I’m arguing no, but is that me just not recognising the geek tribal water I’m swimming in?

---

I just don’t think Star Wars is seen as geeky anymore. Is it? I feel like when there’s a themed land at DisneyWorld, it’s crossed into ubiquity.

It appears @AnthonyRees has planted his flag on the “AMI is pronounced Amy” side of the debate. 🤔 #dotcnz #dotc19

---

@rikkiends @NatDudley @AstroHyde @mmastertheone Does it matter if SW knowledge wasn’t critical to understand the talk? Does that make it better or worse?

---

@sophiebits You think? I HAAAATE it. I hate that it breaks tap-to-scroll on iPhones, and that it enforces extra clicks for me to get to the real URL to share. I haven’t seen benefits to outweigh that.

---

RT @apaipi: As a conference organiser (for 20 years) yes, some people still feel it is unfair to think of diversity when inviting speakers.…

---

As a timer at a conference, there is no better feeling than seeing the speaker see your signal and acknowledge it without breaking a stride. #dotcnz #dotc19 https://t.co/Tqtl761SP5

@bazscott Huh. I thought SW was ubiquitous with kids these days – probably would’ve made that mistake myself. 🙁

@hannahcancode Exactly! And I LOVED that talk. 😂 @_sarahyo named her preso yesterday after “How to lose a guy in 10 days”, which I thought was awesome. (No knowledge of the movie was required.)
