"Yup, that’s me. You’re probably wondering how I ended up in this situation…" 12 July 2013 @greg_menvielle tried to convince me to do a full distance Ironman, and here we are. 40 weeks left to get ready

@LerSfy @geraldlonlas Kitesurf, c'est plus doux!

@WaterMedics I can see myself in the photo! Thank you for the great work and contributing to make the event so great!

[Fabien Townsend @FabienTownsend]

Me: Cycling is such an expensive sport.
Also me: My son will love it if I buy these valve caps.

@jmckinven That's good to know. I wrongly assumed that if you were fast in hills you must be fast rider on the flat as well!

[Fabien Townsend @FabienTownsend]

@jmckinven That's the ride I did, https://t.co/njh8Ad03C4, which was 500m ascendent.

I found it harder mentally than physically to be fair, it was also my first group ride and they were quite fast for my level! I got dropped in every hills!

@Malcolm_Newsome Ahah, happy birthday Malcolm!

@GergelyOrosz You can go even further with TS AWS CDK, in the context of startup, getting the ability to reduce as much as possible context switch between language is a great plus.

The only limitation that I came across is AI/ML is most likely to require Python

@SergioRocks The same way some employees don't take their PTO or sick leave, I've noticed that employees feel guilty using these benefits, even though there is an agreement between the employee and employer.

A solution to this issue is to have company leaders to lead by example

[Fabien Townsend @FabienTownsend]

@LerSfy @soumow Ahah, I'm not surprise!

@LerSfy Te connaissant, tu vas créer to propre label 😂

One of the most difficult steps in triathlon for me was picking up my first bike, haha. There is so much about road bikes that it quickly becomes overwhelming

And of course my domain doesn’t redirect to my project, yet. #priority

[Fabien Townsend @FabienTownsend]

I’m a software engineer and that the order I did my last project:
1. Buy the domain https://t.co/p8zrE1O8NC
2. Build an app with features that I used the next day for my swimming session
3. Signed in for a Triathlon, as I never done any in my life

@Carnage4Life One reason could be that Peloton's hardware isn't required. There are activities such as meditation, yoga, running outdoors, etc which are available through their mobile application

@dabit3 Why thing don’t work when you do a demo

[Fabien Townsend @FabienTownsend]

I was told that’s Zelda for Xbox

@theburningmonk That's interesting, I have the case were a JS lambda invoke a Python (ML) Lambda with an async call. For the reasons you mention, I was thinking using SQS between them but API Gateway seems like a good option too
