Adam Raffe

@leoncozzi Hope you’re ok mate. I had a similar accident last year, although I was more upset at the damage to my bike!

Had a nasty crash on my road bike trigger by a white van side sweeping me. In true cycling manner I tried to walk away, but soon was in A&E, busted up and in a mess. This cheered me up! 😂

@BenCodeGeek @youngr6 @Wilde_IT Looks interesting, will give it a try!

One for @youngr6 @adamraffe @Wilde_IT

@omarsultan This is awesome!

@LNRailway It’s pretty obvious that if you shorten the train by 4 carriages compared to usual, there will be overcrowding. Time for some common sense.

@adamraffe We trust our conductors to assess the capacity and encourage passengers to utilise space as best as possible. If declassification fits the circumstances, the conductor will do so at his/her discretion. I'm sorry you feel that that this was misjudged on this occasion.

@LNRailway if you’re going to only provide 8 carriages on the 07:41 from Leighton Buzzard, why can’t you de-classify 1st class? The train is absolutely rammed and it’s a real slap in the face - there is a pregnant lady standing outside 1st class when there are seats free!

Apparently our conferencing system is now located somewhere on the A413.

@Wilde_IT @PTHospice @Microsoft Nice one! It was great riding through London on closed roads, although I found it a bit scary at times with so many riders all vying for the same bit of road 😕

Finished the ride 100, what a ride. Raised over £900 for @PTHospice from generous people and @Microsoft will double it. 😎 feeling good right now.

@etherealmind I suspect you may come to regret the tone of that post. You don’t come out of it well at all.

@stevenpturner I was there a couple of weeks back - took the Virgin non stop flight, flying out from LHR on Sunday night at 10pm. I prefer a non stop flight over a connection any day.

What's the least painful way to fly from London to Hong Kong? Thinking it might be on Emirates via DXB rather than a none stop 12hr job

This has been a particularly bad week for people using my last name instead of my first on emails. "Hi Raffe!"

@knight_joel I had it for 17 years, so I had a good run :-) It was a tough decision but I felt like I needed to move on. In my role now (which happens to be the same as yours!) there are so many other things to focus on.

@knight_joel Interesting post! I had exactly the same dilemna - the effort involved in recertifying my network certs meant I couldn't dedicate as much time to learning things relevant to my new role. In the end I chose the opposite path to you - my CCIE lapsed completely in Feb :-/

[Blog] AWS Fundamentals, part 11 - CloudFormation adamraffe.com/2019/03/23/aws…

@AzureNetworkGuy Ha ha, never thought of it like that! Anyway it's not quite the whole series, there's more to come :-)

To celebrate 6 months at AWS, I just published ten new blog posts! All about the fundamentals of AWS. adamraffe.com/aws-fundamenta…

@rayheffer It’s just as full on six months in :-)

@leoncozzi Thanks, how are you getting on?

@adamraffe Wow, that did fly past quick! Congrats!

Six months at AWS today! That flew by.

@danieldibswe Oh of course...no going back now 😁

@adamraffe Nice! Are you cloud native now? 🙂

@StephenSatCisco Really enjoying it. Feels like I’ve learnt more in 6 months than in about the last 5 years before that :-)

@adamraffe enjoying it?
