[Alastair Cooke @DemitasseNZ]

Wish me luck. At the airport on the way to #AIIFD2. Just received an emergency warning notification of severe thunderstorms. I'm glad it's a big plane.

@CTOAdvisor @TheFuturumGroup For years, I've been telling the story of how important and challenging it is to refactor your application as you move to the cloud in AWS courses. It feels very different when I follow my advice and rewrite existing working functionality.

@cody_bunch @CTOAdvisor @vBrownBag @sixfootdad @nickmarshall9 @jfrappier Twelve years, and over a thousand videos produced. I must have flown nearly a million miles over the years. All manner of amazing people and places

[Alastair Cooke @DemitasseNZ]

Great news, the @vBrownBag channel has been restored to pre-hack state.

[Chris Williams @mistwire]

Uhhhh do we know anyone at @YouTube @Google @googlecloud that could help (or point us in the right direction)?

@vBrownBag YouTube channel was hacked & as of now we've lost 13+ years of community educational tech content 😭💀😱

[Alastair Cooke @DemitasseNZ]

We are live, the gremlins have been banished, and @googlecloud is live from #CFD20

@linotelera @MorpheusData @MorpheusData provides an incredibly rich platform for delivering unified self-service consumption for a multi-cloud enterprise. The #CFD20 demonstration looked just like working with a public cloud but deploying either on-premises or on cloud.

[Alastair Cooke @DemitasseNZ]

It is time to get started. #CFD20 kicks off with @JuniperNetworks streaming live now

[Tech Field Day | #AIIFD5 June 10 - 11, 2026 @TechFieldDay]

@RickVanover @vBrownBag @geekazine We had an awesome run and some amazing experiences. @vBrownBag isn't going away. I've always appreciated your support and friendship @RickVanover stay awesome

[Alastair Cooke @DemitasseNZ]

@FuturumNetwork @TheFuturumGroup @HPE @HPE_GreenLake I plan to dig a little deeper and learn more about #HPE #Greenlake cloud-like consumption on premises is interesting but assisting multi-cloud decision making is critical

[Alastair Cooke @DemitasseNZ]

@mistwire @ExitRow4TheTall One of my favorite status perks on @FlyAirNZ is free access to the space+ seats.

[Alastair Cooke @DemitasseNZ]

I'm a bit late, but I'm on my way to hang out at #AIFD4. At least I have leg room on the 12 hour flight.

[Alastair Cooke @DemitasseNZ]

@mistwire @ExitRow4TheTall That wasn't pain. This is pain. At least it's only for 3 hours to DEN

[Alastair Cooke @DemitasseNZ]

@StevenDickens3 @CTOAdvisor @Signal_65 @ryanshrout @geekazine We were using the FHD version, but there is a 4K screen option

[Alastair Cooke @DemitasseNZ]

@CTOAdvisor @danielnewmanUV @Signal_65 @ryanshrout This is my first trip to KY. The states I've visited nearly stretch coast to coast. I just need to get to AZ or UT.
