@JoeSmyth10 Makes one wonder what Sky News was doing in Mordor.

What an enjoyable conversation with @moderncto_io about a twisty path through tech, fostering empathy for brands with their customers, and how giving autonomy to engineers is rewarding! https://t.co/VxIs04Snk2

Professor @Schwarzenegger’s Facebook class is back in session in the comments on his vaccine video.

@patrickdebois @ranman Feel free to reach out, Patrick. I'm the chief architect for Genesys Cloud -- we've got loads of stories about how we manage hundreds of microservices, thousands of deploys per week, and billions of interactions every year.

@AlexBall12 Focus on that sweet sweet @SpaceX Dragon return. I know I needed that today. 🚀

No privacy policy? Say what now @awscloud CodeGuru?

Lambda EFS support released at last! This will be a big win for those with large runtimes (looking at you, @TensorFlow) or for non-packaged content like ML models. #awswishlist https://t.co/z9JK8Xnhqm

@samriegel For those having trouble here, when a kid asks if you’re gonna shoot them, the correct answer is not “maybe”.

GREAT WOMAN OF MATHEMATICS: DR. NANCY GRACE ROMAN, 1925-2018. The "Mother of Hubble," Dr. Roman was the first woman to hold an executive position @NASA, the agency's first Chief of Astronomy. Her interest in science was lifelong, supported by her parents but discouraged by 1/7

Extremely cogent and relevant. 👀 We're watching you, beef lords.

friendly reminder in times of uncertainty and misinformation: anecdotes are not data. (good) data is carefully measured and collected information based on a range of subject-dependent factors, including, but not limited to, controlled variables, meta-analysis, and randomization

[Glenn Nethercutt @GNethercutt]

@rbranson 2/ Also, I don't tend to see load continuously diminshing from peak, it often seems more stepwise than that. Not true in your (typical) experiences?

[Glenn Nethercutt @GNethercutt]

@rbranson 1/ Interesting! In my experience, assuming triple AZ redundancy, you want to run with 40-50% headroom on critical event processing systems to handle data center failure. Expensive, but worth it for some loads and solves the scaling problem somewhat.

@rstephensme Who else has their high school locker combination, the Konami code, and the Saturday cartoon theme song for the Adventures of the Gummi Bears still on tap in active working memory? I feel ya.

[Glenn Nethercutt @GNethercutt]

@timbray Were they bound by processing time and max in-flight limit? Impressive "simple" queue service highlight, regardless!

So thrilled that @rstephensme from @redmonk took me up on the offer to talk career pathing and life choices with the students at @PearlHacks! "There is no single path into technology."
