Do as the man says! Be like St. Paddy!

Happy St Patrick’s Day! It’s said that St Patrick banished snakes from Ireland. Nope - we had no snakes. But he did banish compute from the hub! Be like St Paddy, don’t put compute in your hub. #azure #networking

So where is “tech twitter”, #CloudFamily, #AzureFamily, and #MVPBuzz hanging out these days?

Are we still here or have we moved on to Blue Sky?

I tried Mastadon but it didn’t stick for me.

Hey American friends, I need a big SUV with 3 rows for all my kids AND some serious trunk space even with the 3rd row up!

It’d also be nice if it did more than 2.5 miles to the gallon!! 🤣

Any recommendations?

[☁ Karl Cooke | Azure MVP @Karl_ITNerd]

@urlichsanais @MichaelCade1 I sure do!
