    EEEEK, it’s happening! My #AWSSummit debut. šŸ˜ https://t.co/U1k0ujtkCA


    @NZMtnGoat Hi Ben! Apparently they’re working on it right now. šŸ™ All of the sessions are going to be available on demand afterwards, so you’ll definitely be able to watch it once this is resolved.


    @NZMtnGoat The On Demand version now seems to be working!


    If you weren’t able to watch my session “A newbie’s guide to getting started with AWS” live, it’s available On Demand! Just scroll to the bottom of the list in the Transform track. #AWSSummit https://t.co/tOThptBgyX


    RT @AlexaCodes: Just watched ‘A newbies guide to getting started with AWS (Level 100)’ on demand. Great intro to AWS, Kris! https://t.co/ehā€¦


    @techies It’s watchable On Demand now – just go to the Transform track and scroll to the bottom. “A Newbie’s guide…”


    My @DevAroundTheSun talk will be kicking off in just over 20 minutes! Tune in on Twitch to hear about my current project to knit the SAR-CoV-2 virus, as well as an epic attempt to teach a computer to reverse engineer sweaters. https://t.co/9uFYqLRZ2t https://t.co/Rgm1tF5xio


    @Scott_Addie @knitcodemonkey @jeffreystrauss @DevAroundTheSun Jen is actually credited on the thank you slide at the end, I believe! šŸ˜‰

    @nelli2k LOL, I’m definitely sharing that one at work. šŸ˜‚


    @cczona @chixors @HeartOfPluto_ Nah, nah. Machine knit… on a custom hacked knitting machine!


    @CallbackWomen Let’s be honest – I take very little convincing. If you invite me, I’ll be there. šŸ˜Š


    @cczona @chixors @HeartOfPluto_ IIRC it was pieced. More details here: https://t.co/F15XrkNeKF


    RT @CallbackWomen: Y’all need to convince @web_goddess to give this talk to more conferences https://t.co/7tgkVitQbk https://t.co/MLjHv5cuoQ

    @starbuxman I still remember that you’re the one who introduced “soup to nuts” to me.


    Yay, @DevAroundTheSun is live and there’s my buddy @SaraJChipps! I’ve got just shy of 15 hours until my slot. Slides are done; timing is good… but I think I’m coming down with strep throat. FUN! I may have to do my talk via interpretive dance. šŸ’ƒ https://t.co/9uFYqLRZ2t https://t.co/BTqR2u8fJj


    @DevAroundTheSun @SaraJChipps I figure adrenaline and Tylenol will get me through! But first, for the Aussies, it is time to sleep… šŸ˜“

    I’m feeling better. It’s still weird to go into the kitchen and for the first time in 16 years not have a cat at my feet making sure I’m not secretly cutting up chicken.


    @CatSwetel @verica_io Ooh, congrats!! Best of luck with it


    @robcruickshank Well, we’ve still got the other cat but he’s a lovable scatterbrain for whom “food” just magically appears like a sunbeam every now and then. šŸ˜‚

    Itā€™s strange how you can know, with certainty, that something sad is coming, and think you are prepared for it, but the grief is still really overwhelming in the moment. šŸ’”šŸ˜æ

    Today we held our dear old sweet grumpy Puss as she went to sleep with the Mama Cat. We knew it was coming but it was still so sad and we cried and told her we loved her. I miss her already. ā¤ļøšŸ˜æ

    Second iteration of the @the_snookā€™s sourdough crumpets. Getting there!! https://t.co/rCzKyvCLy3


    @cczona @the_snook Mostly based on this: https://t.co/5fDzrghEg4


    One of the questions in today’s Good Weekends Quiz was about the video game franchise that “New Horizons” is part of. So thank you, all of you who’ve been spamming my feed with turnips for months now. Because of you, we got a point!


    @SophieJKunze Hehe, I didn’t actually give the answer away, so hopefully you’ll get it right!


    RT @atrupar: Pence press secretary Katie Miller is the only person in this photo without a mask. Today news broke that she has coronavirus.ā€¦


    RT @Cam_Rogers: Bit of a mic drop, this. https://t.co/ohdJHY6Oae


    @jesslynnrose Does it need to be Covid-specific? I created https://t.co/wPCtzMM3Ls and I’ve been running it for 24 years now, with visits from thousands of kids, parents, and teachers.


    Final push through ā€œI, Claudiusā€. Messalina is still a hoochie-mama, and now his buddy Herod Agrippa is dead. Bummer. https://t.co/j3wWkkk9dU


    ā€œHussy!ā€ mutters the Snook, as she brazenly manipulates poor Clau-Clau https://t.co/i0RUZ5oWWN


    ā€œIs the marriage bigamous or not?ā€ Thatā€™s what Iā€™m asking, my dude. Iā€™m shocked you can get a divorce by claiming he wasnā€™t home when you delivered the papers. šŸ˜³ https://t.co/jPQpMUqP3O


    Oh, sure. Donā€™t trust your only remaining oldest friend until poor manā€™s Geoffrey Rush mansplains it to you. POOR FORM, CLAU-CLAU. https://t.co/ZM6nutnmHL


    POLICE RAAAAAAAID! https://t.co/DDa8yksrxZ


    Okay, the head chopping was pretty intense. https://t.co/5qAJrqZntw


    Claudius is very not enthusiastic about his bros setting him up. https://t.co/HK0FjLGKHL


    LET ALLLLL THE POISONS THAT LURK IN THE MUD HATCH OUT. Ancient Rome equivalent of ā€œzero fucks given,ā€ I guess. https://t.co/dDNZX88f35


    WHAT THE HELL does that conquered British king have in his moustache?! https://t.co/SQ9W334wo5


    Whaaaaat. So Livia had a secret prophecy with the whole miniseries plot spelled out in it? She was so cool. https://t.co/gsgKzJVJaG


    Nero is a messy drama queen, and I kind of love it. https://t.co/z7WkPCQlQH


    Okay, for the record I didnā€™t know he was going to be shagging his Mom two minutes later.


    ā€œTurns out I wasnā€™t the Messiah after all!ā€ šŸ˜‚ HA! https://t.co/J3ZrjiXG4u


    TFW you discover you might actually be Caligulaā€™s son. šŸ˜³ https://t.co/CqMitdai7C


    Wait. Mushrooms?? And he secretly wanted it? So Phantom Thread lifted that from I, Claudius!! https://t.co/gWxxTj02Nf


    AND THATā€™S THE END! If youā€™re in need of isolation content, I highly recommend you check out I, Claudius. Truly amazing. https://t.co/9yPXlcE9Iy


    It’s been a real shitty couple of weeks… and now it’s 12:30am and I’m drinking Scotch and soda after an emergency trip to the vet, where we left Amy Cat in an oxygen cage having a barrage of very expensive tests, and can 2020 just… stop? šŸ˜¢


    @lynnlangit Ugh. Reject and report with extreme prejudice!

    Oh god. Another entry for my and @rosepowell’s collection of horrifying -preneur portmanteaus: “Petrepreneur”. Yep. Not even kidding. šŸ¤®


    @charis @rosepowell See, I’d invest in that.


    @andykelk @rosepowell I believe it is referring to animals.


    @frankarr @sezshares @pyko Awwww, #shehacks! What fun times. ā¤ļø @WWCSyd


    @rosepowell @annie_parker Something about pet care I believeā€¦


    @gilmae @rosepowell Exactly. And people are just puttin’ these in their LinkedIn headers, and every time I’m like, šŸ˜³.


    @DamonOehlman @rosepowell Well, in this case the person wasn’t thinking quite as deeply as you are. I believe they have some animal related startup. šŸ˜¹
