RT @jennapederson: Was fun to see how @web_goddess taught a computer to reverse engineer knitting patterns at the @BerlinAWSUG meetup today…

@Claire_Science @BerlinAWSUG @dtraub The presentation I’ve done is just on stitch pattern identification. I’ve played around a little with counting rows but haven’t managed to get any good results yet, so I haven’t shown that off anywhere to date.

---

@Claire_Science I’ll be presenting this talk again at @Refactor_Conf in June: https://t.co/vblOGNadYc . But I’ll be sure to share if I end up presenting anywhere else in the meantime…

I can’t believe “fan fiction” didn’t make the list. 😂 https://t.co/rSiq4wbs6d

RT @sarahmei: To be clear I am not lamenting “cancel culture,” I am lamenting the fact that many women in tech feel like having any sort of…

RT @ChrisShort: 40: Wise enough to know I know nothing and ask for help. https://t.co/Bi9dmvJ1rz

@anatudor @codepo8 Yeah, we’re definitely paying for the big kitchen! But it’s worth it. We cook a lot, and fairly elaborate stuff too.

---

Last call for tonight’s @BerlinAWSUG! Join me, @dtraub, and Angus (who somehow doesn’t have a Twitter) talking about k8s, AWS Community Heroes, machine learning, and knitting. Gonna be a good one… 👩‍💻🧶 https://t.co/0BHTMxcz9f

@SteveALee @codepo8 So many preserved and smoked, sure. But at Aussie butcher shops you can get like a dozen different types of fresh ones – pork, lamb, chicken, different herbs and flavours. I guess it comes from English tradition, which is why they’re not as common here?

---

@codepo8 @SteveALee Yeah, I think I need to find a good butcher here. We found the Turkish one, which is great for lamb. (Aussies eat a lot of lamb, and we miss it.)

---

RT @dtraub: Great to see @web_goddess presenting an ML algorithm that can identify every knitting stitch. As long as it’s Stockinette.

Ha…

---

@dtraub Haha, MVP’s gotta start somewhere!

---

@chainedchaos31 Same in Munich. Bring on Spring, dammit!

---

@DgtlNmd Yes. And I know at least one woman who avoids using it because her profile publicly shows a creepy guy she tries to avoid “invited” her.

---

@DgtlNmd I can show you a screenshot of mine. (Thankfully I’m not embarrassed of my nominator @Osterjour! 😂) I can also see it for literally anyone else on the app. https://t.co/MCsDaGkUlH

---

@DgtlNmd @Osterjour Haha, no, a colleague. I also avoid using the app, but mainly because I’m annoyed that it bombards you with notifications without any controls to get just the ones that you actually care about. So I turned them all off, and now I forget it exists most of the time.

Rodd: “This is relevant to several of your interests. Warning: it’s in Bavarian.”
Me: “This is amaaaaazing! GAHH, now I want to go see them play live!” 😩

@developerjack I’ve got WordPress running in Lightsail myself, though not with any real automation. Trying to think of some local folks that can assist. @cam8001 – IIRC you were a PHP expert?

---

@pgarbe On the first watch, really very little. 😂 I need to watch it again a few times with captions on or something.

---

@marksbirch I gave up on GIMP on Mac a long time ago. I used to use https://t.co/63GJFPhwdI before I paid for Acorn…

@annie_parker My sympathies to your and your fam. ❤️ (And I love the “little but fierce” quote so much. I played Helena once in high school – tall girl here – and that line has stuck with me every since.)

---

@Anthropologal Haha, yeah, “Kummel” (caraway seed) vs “Kreuzkummel” (cumin) confused us too. We use Google Translate a lot at the supermarket!

---

I’m using Rekognition Custom Labels to build an image classifier, and I’m actually blown away by how fast and easy it is. My previous attempts with SageMaker gave good results but required a lot of tweaking, big data sets, and specialised ML knowledge. This is a game changer!! https://t.co/K9Iqu3rOZL

Picnic in Westpark on a cloudy day… ⛅️🧺 https://t.co/s0OOlHNpq7

GAHH, y’all, this is so cool! 🧶💻 If you want to see me talk about it, I’m speaking at the AWS Berlin meetup on Tuesday night! https://t.co/0BHTMxcz9f https://t.co/U1Ki2OWSiX

@jennapederson Some models work better than others. 😂 https://t.co/Im0xyS1MeZ

Some days, just teaching a computer that a cat is not, in fact, a piece of knitting is a moral victory. https://t.co/KrbPWMqLeJ

@BanItchy @realchrisebert @softwarejameson If you’re changing job families, you usually have to interview… but it’s not the full rigamarole that external hires go through. For my transfer last year to a new job (in a new country), I had a mini-loop with three stakeholders from the new team.

Blog post! A tour of my local Munich grocery store and some of the important food differences we’ve learned about in the past seven months.

@Anthropologal I think we must’ve just gotten unlucky with the cumin. Other people have said it’s available, so must just be our store!

---

@CamburgBahnhof Right? I joked to Rodd (who is an excellent baker) that perhaps we should open a cafe so he can be the Pieman of Germany.
