Join Joe Winchester at #TechXchange Community Day to hear how Zowe is transforming mainframe environments. Learn how customers are leveraging Zowe for education, DevOps, and more. 📊💡 hubs.la/Q02LMgyD0 #IBMTechXchange @IBM @IBMCommunity

@Priyansh_61 @OpenMFProject Glad to have met you to hear all the great thing you did as an @OpenMFProject summer mentee.

Big thanks to @JoeWinchester for taking care of us. @OpenMFProject is a great family :) #OSSEurope

@StevenDickens3 So sorry to hear that Steven. Totally agree that dogs are a glue that binds a family. Grief sucks but over time the good memories and joy recalling the unrequited love that Kiki brought will balance out the horrible feeling of loss you must have right now.

@OpenMFProject @IBM This was such a great pairing to see Billie who is the lead of the project building the Zowe Explorer plugin to share the stage with Emma who is a rising star end user customer. Magic occurs when the perfect ingredients mix and this was a super session.

.@IBM's Billie Jean Simmons walks through a demo of #Zowe Explorer, which has become the “New face of Z” for students and folks new to the platform, at #SHAREKC2024. @OpenMFProject @JoeWinchester

@OpenMFProject @IBM @LouisaSeers @FINOSFoundation This was a lot of fun, so great to see the success of #opensource in the financial services industry on display, as well as getting to present @OpenMFProject and showcase opportunies and synergy.

Thank you to @IBM's @LouisaSeers & @JoeWinchester for representing @OpenMFProject yesterday at #OSFF2024! If you were at the @FINOSFoundation event and want to learn more about any of the #OpenMainframe projects - join us on slack! #OSinFinance #fintech hubs.la/Q02DDtn30

@StevenDickens3 @TheFuturumGroup Woo hoo 🥳. Nicely done Steven. Onwards and upwards.

I’m pleased to announce my new role as Chief Technology Advisor at @TheFuturumGroup. Over the past three years, I've had the privilege of working with a team of the best creative and deeply technical minds to service the needs of the largest names in technology. In this new capacity, I will lead the relationships with our largest accounts, offering strategic advice, and overseeing our research calendar and content creation capabilities. I’d like to extend my gratitude to @danielnewmanUV for his mentorship and guidance throughout my journey at Futurum and for giving me the opportunity to take this next step. His leadership has been instrumental in my growth, and I am excited to take on this new challenge under his continued mentorship. Here's to the next chapter with The Futurum Group, focused on delivering excellence and innovation for our clients and disrupting the landscape of Analyst Relations and enterprise technology content creation.

@Darren_Surch Is that hex or decimal 25 ? I should have known better than start an uno emoji duel with the brainiest #mainframer and social media legend who walks amongst us.

@JoeWinchester and I'll counter your Uno gif with an Uno meme!

Don’t miss the chance to see @JoeWinchester! He’s one of the best speakers in mainframe! #zowerules

@Darren_Surch @SHAREhq Woo hoo ! It wouldn't be a SHARE without you there mate 😃

Just got the nod to speak at #SHAREKC2024! Thank you for the honor @SHAREhq!😁 Join me in KC for "How to Build an Internal Mainframe Talent Pool" where we'll discuss the remarkable industry trend solving #mainframeskills & #mainframe #workforce worries, AT-SCALE!

@pleia2 Did you get to take the IBM pillow cushion home ? Looks like a great piece of swag.

Stopped by #RSAC2024 in San Francisco on a bit of a whim yesterday due to securing an expo pass, and it was quite the experience. I visited a few booths and had great conversations about secure #OpenSource software development on the #mainframe and dropped by the IBM booth!

@StevenDickens3 Chieveley services M4 junction 13 with A34 ? You should keep heading south and stop by IBM Hursley labs Steven, we have great pastries here too 🥐

@dez_blanchfield @gseukc Cheers Dez ! My DMs are locked down after I was getting way too many spammy messages, but just clicked ‘follow’ on your good self so hopefully you’re able to ping me now. Cheers !

I love #mainframes so much I got to hug three this year 😀 #HugYourMainframeDay The plexi at @gseukc in October 2022 and again at #shareatlanta 2023, but one that got the biggest hug was the AWESOME lego z16 I met at #sharenola 2023 ! Happy Birthday @dez_blanchfield ! 🎂

@craigmullins @Darren_Surch @craigmullins , you’re overthinking it buddy. I think Darren was making a joke about TERRaform and ansIBLE becoming one word. 🤣

@Darren_Surch Also, HashiCorp "will continue to operate under the HashiCorp name as a division within IBM Software"... so there's that.

IBM acquires HashiCorp. If IBM decides to merge Terraform and Ansible, would that be Terrible? 😉

@StevenDickens3 @WSJ Wow ! Nicely done Sir 👏

First time being quoted in the @WSJ AWS’s AI strategy could work while businesses are still deciding which vendors and technologies to use, and which actually provide a return on investment, said Steven Dickens, vice president and practice leader for cloud at Futurum Group. “They’re not as invested in their own models as Microsoft and Google are,” he said. “AWS is more of a home for every model.” wsj.com/articles/amazo…

@OpenMFProject @IBM This is such a wonderful write up by Billie Jean Simons about her career journey that’s led to becoming the squad lead for Zowe Explorer for VS Code. 👏
