    How a football team, data scientists, and solution architects utilised cloud computing at AWS… by @woraperth https://t.co/VCnb1gZUa4 – Nice writeup of recent AWS Community Day and my serverless talk! ❤️ https://t.co/N63So3sg6L


    @lemon_lime WAIT, you made that in three days?????

    @randommandelbot Very random.


    @lemon_lime How did you quilt it? Looks like the middle has straight lines… (I usually just tie them when they’re for kids)


    RT @philnash: It’s a lovely morning in the open plan workspace, and you are a horrible developer.

    Thanks for the reminder, @themaninblue. Just signed as #165404. Other Aussies should too. https://t.co/sw33RHbZom


    Hey knitters – I’m trying to teach a computer to recognise different knitting stitches, so I need training data. You can help by emailing me some photos of your knitting. More details here and email address here: https://t.co/f7hWHINBf2 https://t.co/UBlpPYACBI


    @FourRedShoes Maybe… but only if I get enough data. (Other people are trying to crack this too, and this always seems to be the sticking point.)

    @evanderkoogh @darthted Next week as in Oct 3 or Oct 10? If it’s the latter and you need a cheering section, happy to represent!


    @evanderkoogh @darthted I’m already booked that night. 🙁 I’ll be cheering you on in spirit though!


    Hey knitting friends! Got a few minutes to help me out with a project? I need photos of swatches – preferably stockinette, garter, seed, and moss stitch, like these. You can email them straight to me. DM and I’ll hook you up with the address! 🙏 https://t.co/kAtAlQvylr


    I’ve posted more details on Ravelry in the Australian Knitters group: https://t.co/hOUsv8qM78

    @FCTweedie @developerjack @MichelePlayfair OH, YES! Finally. Then you must come along to @SydTechLeaders on the 17th. That and @GGDSydney are my faves.

    First session is a panel featuring leaders from @Cohesity, @findercomau, @Channel9, and @BPAY_AU. Different companies are at different places on maturity curve and have challenges like software licensing, regulatory concerns, skills shortage. #cloudstrategy19 https://t.co/65XoyQssDq


    It’s important to give your teams time and freedom to innovate, and to build a blame-free culture where failure is accepted and learned from. #cloudstrategy19 https://t.co/A6qKHChVM3


    By 2025, 75% of workforce will be millennials and they’ll have 50% of buying power. They’re tech natives and demand and personalisation, so companies need to embrace digital NOW., says @dhruvdhumatkar from @NetAppANZ. #cloudstrategy19 https://t.co/rLHPp2eZHH

    Next speaker is Joe Waller from @findercomau taking us through their cloud-first transformation. Their legacy physical stack would take a big hit whenever they ran TV campaigns. Moving to @awscloud offered instant elasticity benefit. #cloudstrategy19 https://t.co/4xU1zgBY2e


    Some eye-opening stats from Sean Maritz @nginx while talking about API deployment patterns. 83% of web server its are API traffic, and 40% of NGINX deployments are for API gateways. 😳 #cloudstrategy19 https://t.co/MeXDzXq8pT


    It’s always a pleasure to hear from @allPowerde and the amazing things @CSIRO is doing. Genomics is going to have massive impact on the healthcare industry (and our lives) in the coming years. #cloudstrategy19 https://t.co/CX5oBE8gY5


    Ooh, “ride share” as analogy for serverless. I like that! Might have to retire my usual “takeaway food = kitchenless” example. @allPowerde #cloudstrategy19 https://t.co/PiyW0r9pe2


    Advice from @allPowerde – invest in hypothesis-driven development! Testing is more conclusive than theorising. #cloudstrategy19 https://t.co/BTePqzvHX0

    @serdar @diversionary @the_snook Hilariously, I did meet @snookca once when he was in Sydney for a tech event. He also looks sort of like the other two. Maybe we’re dealing with some sort of Orphan Black scenario… 🤔
