At the Sydney launch event for @TeremTech’s State of APIs ANZ report with @tiamsorensen. We were very keen at @CipherStash to contribute to this inaugural report.

@corduroy @galumay My understanding is that Boost is the only MVNO that has access to Telstra's full network, the rest of the MVNOs are on wholesale network.

Dropped @Movember’s production database during peak donation period in Nov 2011. Ran automation for setting up a new follower db against the leader db, taking the entire cluster offline. Prod down for ~5 mins as we restored. Probably lost several tens of k’s of donation $s.

Adding +15 headcount means you’re a Director (or well on your way!), which improves your compensation, your future job opportunities, etc. Adding +400k/yr in SaaS spend means you’re meeting with Finance every month to review infrastructure costs and bring them under control.

@evolvable Wasting time is the point. The more time spent debunking nuclear, the less time there is for progressing actual viable options. It's high end trolling designed to demoralise people who actually understand the problem.

@tobyhede Welcome to team sleep breathe no work good

Did a sleep test and apparently I managed to stop breathing for 66 seconds.

This is fine.

Spent the day sick on the couch finishing reviews of @SREcon APAC talks, and every time I said “SRE”, iOS dictation wrote it as “sorry”, and I think that says a lot

This nails something I had amorphously felt but never articulated in my head (attributed to @monicabyrne13).

@ChrisSinjo get in line, pal
