@Bell_Support Hello, I bought a used Samsung S5 that is network locked to Bell. Can I get it unlocked since I'm a customer of a different provider? Thanks!

Sid Meier's "Memoir!" is a trip down the memory lane for anyone who spent countless hours playing his games during the personal computer revolution, or for folks aspiring to a game designer career. Recommended. https://t.co/7r1qxCVScc

.@RobinhoodApp hurting itself in its confusion today. I wouldn't trust them with my money, there are plenty of brokerages that treat their customers like grown-ups who can take informed risk decisions.

@theckman https://t.co/z8eNx85L0x for an interesting take on the Disney+ version. I saw it live in London and enjoyed it a lot.

@raganwald PHP got popular 10 years before StackOverflow appeared (1998 for PHP 3.0 vs 2008). The first large site I built with it solo (that's "full stack" in today's parlance, but without the help of a thousand JS packages) remained in continuous use with minimal support for 13 years.

@Dogen Did the emoji language/alphabet originate on Japanese cellular phones, or was that first done elsewhere? There might be seven :)

@pwuille @Ethan_Heilman @bitbanter That goes well with Escher Capital (https://t.co/hWHVnfLSPe) and Bach Capital (https://t.co/KfoSDPjxoB).

@SusanPotter I remember one of these: https://t.co/GVhgvxBA1y - the fix was made in time at source but didn't make it to many "stable" branches and distributions.

@theckman This recent episode of Screaming in the Cloud might have a few tips. https://t.co/o5hPAD3427

My notes on this year's DevOps Days Toronto @DevOpsDaysTO https://t.co/F7RgbNXh6Z

[Max Timchenko @MaxVT]

On gathering good feedback from customers, @mohitsuley says: "ask people how they feel; don't ask them to convert feelings into a number." Feelings are not easily quantifiable, "unlike the amount of spice in your tikka masala." #LISA19

As an addendum to @ahidalgosre's ICS talk, here's @pagerduty's incident response process documentation: https://t.co/4IEsz2kV7v. Any other companies that made their IR runbooks publicly available? #LISA19

[Max Timchenko @MaxVT]

You thought bridging the divide between Dev and Ops is hard? In @kimschles and @szelechoski's talk, the two teams are not even in the same company. Take their suggestions on relationships, processes, and tools and apply them to any collaboration between two tech teams. #LISA19

[Max Timchenko @MaxVT]

@theckman Looks like the picker is only programmed to work in the past - would selecting the actual year first fix it?

[Max Timchenko @MaxVT]

"Measure security teams by what they enable, not by what they block; be open about what you are doing and why; blameless culture" are the actionable heavy-hitters @iodboi concluded his talk with at #LISA19.

[Max Timchenko @MaxVT]

Between the lines, I'm hearing "container platforms are still not nearly as stable and polished as marketing copy would have you believe" from @alicegoldfuss's talk at #LISA19. It takes a full, brand new, team to roll out and run a production container infrastructure.

@DivineOps @DevOpsDaysTO If checklists are good enough for aircraft (safest mode of transportation known to man), life-saving medical procedures, and space travel, they are good enough for most startups creating the next "Uber of <insert industry here>".

[Max Timchenko @MaxVT]

@tpflug I expect my talk to be recorded and posted publicly. This way many more people can enjoy it.

A bit surprised to see the AGO name being used to push "limited edition" addictive vaping products. @agotoronto Duty Free at @BBishopAirport
