Network and Security Admin, petrol head. Ranty and opinionated, best not to take it personally.

Listen up. Kevin just dropped one of the best speeches I've every listened to FOR FREE on youtube. Do yourself a favor & spend 45 minutes listening to this RIGHT NOW. I guarantee you won't regret it.

Kevin - I felt like a college student taking notes to cram for an exam - seriously, I'll email you a copy.

Parts of it were so powerful, it made me tear up at 3 different moments...

1) The part where you talk about your daughters favorite memory from your 7-day trip being a cup of coffee and a sunset.

2) When you discuss your friend Scott who went from rock-bottom to thriving because he reignited a childhood passion for BMX racing at 43.

3) When you tell the story of your Uncle saving up to take the family to Hawaii one day.

This speech is better an 99% of Ted Talks I've ever listened to. I'm about to go share it with everyone in my life who might benefit...

@SunderlandUK "We" don't. Whole city is blighted by it. City centre is dead as during the day it's riddled with methheads, and on a night you stand a good chance of being stabbed. Too many people with no pride or respect for themselves/others being intimidating, no police.

I don’t hate Facebook or Instagram but if you’re wondering if the idea of them being erased forever because of a hacker is hilarious to me it most certainly is.

It’s always fucking DNS…

[Motherboard @motherboard]

Experts believe the outage is related to issues with internet infrastructure, specifically DNS
(a service that translates domains into IP addresses) and BGP (the system that figures out the best route for a packet to travel across the internet). https://t.co/ylIJ5xhoEq
