@mmeckes Cannot overstate how much I love this Matt. Purple is an INCREDIBLE achievement that’s not only the product of an enormous time investment but also your skill and brain power to turn what you’ve learned into action… wow! Oss! 🙇‍♂️

[Ben Moses @BenMosesUK]

@praneetaprakash @andmoredev @AllenHeltonDev @focusotter Yes you did! Was awesome seeing you there!!

[Ben Moses @BenMosesUK]

@LeoCDamascena @LeeJamesGilmore Buses and monorail are your friend!

[Ben Moses @BenMosesUK]

@LeeJamesGilmore @stevemorland And this is why we can’t have nice things children!

@LeoCDamascena @LeeJamesGilmore That’s nothing Leandro! I got new sneakers for re:Invent 4 years ago and have worn them every day since…. oh wait they’re not new any more 😆

[Ben Moses @BenMosesUK]

@stevemorland @LeeJamesGilmore He’s bringing it back Steve!

[Ben Moses @BenMosesUK]

@LeeJamesGilmore Strong move 💪 Thought you had Jeremy Scott for a second there 🪽

@boyney123 All good thanks bud - watching Event Catalog with a close eye. Spotted that you’d released the EventBridge generator, looks great and I need to carve out some time for a play!

[Ben Moses @BenMosesUK]

@boyney123 Loving and using Zod a lot at the moment. Takes a bit of getting used to its mental model, but crazy powerful and useful!!

[Ben Moses @BenMosesUK]

@andmoredev See you there sir!!

[Ben Moses @BenMosesUK]

@mattzcarey Nice one guys! 👏

[Ben Moses @BenMosesUK]

@g_bonfiglio Same as you with DRAC, then iDRAC, and all the other vendor equivalents, and GSX, ESX, ESXi, you just had to figure it out in your first build for prod. Crazy days!

[Ben Moses @BenMosesUK]

@g_bonfiglio I used to help my school when I was a student with server admin. When I left they were refreshing their servers and let me take a very old server and a BNC NIC home. Novell used to let you order a lab license for NetWare and shipped you about 36 3.5” floppies.

[Ben Moses @BenMosesUK]

@g_bonfiglio That became my first lab to continue my learning. If I had to buy that kit it would have been cost prohibitive and I was very fortunate. It speaks to the same point you’re making - high barrier to entry for most. Now it’s a free tier API call away.

@benjamenpyle @BenchmadeKnives Free leg pic too! That’s beautiful mate - hope you’re really happy with it 😍

[Ben Moses @BenMosesUK]

@benjamenpyle @BenchmadeKnives Care to share a pic of yours?

[Ben Moses @BenMosesUK]

@benjamenpyle @BenchmadeKnives I’m a bit of a knife guy and have UK legal Spyderco and SOG pocket knives, and a Buck for camping, but I’ve always wanted a Bugout! I just can’t justify it given it wouldn’t be UK legal… come on Benchmade, make a UK legal one!

[Ben Moses @BenMosesUK]

@jbesw @HansZimmer Wow! How on earth do you top this? You’ve now experienced peak epic-ness… very jealous!
