Edinburgh based Software Monkey - all about performance and scalability these days...

@andrewhallortho @sggt_uk @MizunoGolfEU @BBandFCo If you were a real fan, you'd get all your odd clubs in black and your even clubs in chrome...

@cwgabriel Amazing - there are some great characters and I'm a huge fan of 'believable' dystopia. 28 Days Later is probably my favourite movie. Ever fancied sketching the Silo?

@cwgabriel You gotta read the books! One of my favourite sets - thankfully sounds like they have done a good job with the show

@anne_e_currie @JamieDobson Fun times 😂

The late great Douglas Adams tells one of the all-time greatest stories

@GergelyOrosz Better way is to empower teams with the information about how much they spend. We do cost allocation at the squad level for AWS, NewRelic and Databricks...more often than not, squads just fix it themselves and keep simple costs low

@shreyas @Skyscanner hits all of those asks, careers page here : https://t.co/iwgt9k1Qzq

@caseyrosenthal @Skyscanner does a 5-week paid leave after 5 years of working there. You soon find out the dependencies when folks aren't coming back for over a month and get the time to fix it. Great perk and adds a bit of resilience.

@iAmTheWhaley @QuinnyPig @samnewman Add me and I'll DM you, set up something between the three of us

@QuinnyPig @iAmTheWhaley @samnewman Hey - been running out own NATs at Skyscanner for years, with an auto failover to managed NATs in the event of problems. Happy to chat if you are interested - technical or cloud economics of what we've saved...

@andrewhallortho @Scotlandteam @fijirugby @KBdoc @mckinleyankle @tomblankenstein No pressure, but that's a 100% win record. Might want to quit while you are ahead?

I cannot even login to cancel this shitfuckery. I just get a 500 error when selecting the company account I created back in 2014 and never used.

Good luck with the chargebacks FogBugz.

#KubeCon2022 I am in you - who's around and wants to catch-up? DM me :)

@CBeebiesHQ @bbceurovision @BBCiPlayer General consensus in our household is that @nickcope4 "I'm a little lizard" is catchy enough to win!

[Stuart Davidson @spedge]

@wesreisz Hey @spolsky and @GergelyOrosz - the two lists I used, 22 years apart but both talking about developer enablement as key reasons to join a company.

[Stuart Davidson @spedge]

@jchyip The way AoA articulates clear kneejerk reactions, explains why they lead to wrong behaviours and gives alternatives that seem obvious (but not always when you are in the situation) is genius. Simple yet incredibly effective
