Technical lead and -consultant @ThoughtWorks. Loving technology, travel, and good food. Curious about science and psychology. Me in my own distinct way.

@O2 tried to convert from post-paid to pre-paid, lost my original number along the way during the migration. DM'd you but it doesn't seem to be working. Can you give me an update?

If we're being honest, most teams use DDD - deadline-driven development.

[use case driven @tpierrain]

Rock star developers are trashing their hotel rooms after they finished and leave, ninja developers are using subterfuges to assassinate people. Don’t pick any one of them.

Instead, try to be surrounded by Code Poets. They care about words and meaning. @ThomasBetts #eddd

Getting ready to start a talk on Event Driven Architecture at the second best room (after the beach) of @AgileCrete #softwareDesign

[AgileCrete @AgileCrete]

🏝️ It might not seem so but these guys talk about time management and agile on multi-team multi-system organizations 🤓 Who says learning happens only in corporate environments?

@replugio where can I report abuse of your service for a phishing scam? Seems like someone is keen to get my bank details 😒

[Barry Postma @bapostma]

@oligibson Awesome Oli! I've been following a few of them and they were a pleasure to read :) keep it up 👍

[Barry Postma @bapostma]

@DVSAdigital Do you have a roadmap for when NI vehicles will be available in your MOT Tests api? Same as this comment: https://t.co/Kho3gm9peS

[Barry Postma @bapostma]

@oligibson @wizzair Had exactly the same experience with @wizzair a while back when there was a technical issue checking in online! Charged to print a boarding pass! Extortion!

@thameswater Looks like the new login page has some very old validation on it and doesn't allow new TLDs. Please send on to your software dev team, it's a bug.

@1Password Why is it that my primary vault can be renamed in all the apps, but in the web-app it's still showing as 'Private'?

Enemies of innovation:

1 culture of blame
2 no safe space to experiment
3 desire to please all
4 big egos
5 self-doubt
6 micro-management of talent
7 fear of failure
8 too much process rigor
9 impatience
10 abundance of resources
11 need immediate ROI
12 too much love for HIPPOs

@MikeChernev Go Mike!

Since when is a timer such a battery drain?

[Barry Postma @bapostma]

@wizzair An incredibly helpful answer. We've been waiting for almost two months.

[Barry Postma @bapostma]

@wizzair Can you expedite or verify the status of our claim please? I have a reference uid that I can provide in a private message.

[Barry Postma @bapostma]

@wizzair what is the reason for the delay to flight W6 4481 tomorrow?

[Barry Postma @bapostma]

@musicolet love the app. Small bug it seems to have inherited from Android:
the lack of Album Artist-tag support. Do you plan on fixing that perhaps? See here: https://t.co/jxhfLLVBf3

[Barry Postma @bapostma]

@AmericanAir It's asking for an AAdvantage number, which I don't have. Although I'm a FlyingBlue member with BA?
