Robot Taylor

Washington sunsets are spectacular.

@ashleymcnamara "Philip and Alex's Guide to Web Publishing" was a seminal book for me. I read it as a mid-career business application developer on UNIX systems and it opened the realm of the Internet to me from a perspective other openings hadn't. Thx, @PhilipGreenspun philip.greenspun.com/panda/

What books or blogs have impacted you the most in your career in tech?

@katrinagulliver @robotterror @dabitch @unfollowbugbot I mean, I never really thought *anyone* should follow me, much less ~900 people, but I didn’t think @twitter would agree... ;)

@robottaylor @robotterror @dabitch @unfollowbugbot I just saw that: 0 followers??? OMG

@bridgetkromhout @kartar @abbyfuller Oh, that is GOOD

@abbyfuller Scene opens on a grizzled ops type. “You wanna get into devrel, kid? Okay. First get angry at computers, real angry, angry enough to spend years learning how to do something about it.” She leans close, almost whispering. “Then take what you learned and spare others that pain.”

It's not the momo challenge you want to worry about it's the algorithmic YouTube coming in the window

@mweagle We manage... with several integrations of product teams. *I DID NOT SET IT UP* Magicians did.

@QuinnyPig I click "unsubscribe" as often as possible, in fact.

Holy crap. Those engagement-per-post numbers are in the same neighborhood as clicks in my weekly newsletter. On the "unsubscribe" link.

@tmclaughbos @robotterror I see you!

@robottaylor @robotterror just tried...

@tmclaughbos New account, who dis? (Since @robotTERROR is fubared, I am seeing if an old account renamed to @robotTAYLOR will be able to be followed). Wanna be amongst the first? :)

Me and my Fury (tail light is out — oof).

@tmclaughbos Oh - I had read this previously! Good read, though.

@tmclaughbos Mmm. Looking forward to reading this. I and my SRE team have pushed for Serverless first since 2015 and we have NO REGRETS. Of course, there are uses cases where some infra is needed, but generally, if it CAN be Serverless, from Ops perspective it's a win. Devs like it, too.

As an operations person, why go serverless? hubs.ly/H0gLC3m0

@monkchips That is heart-warming.

so great

@ananavarro There's always a tweet to prove something with this family

Because as his father said according to Cohen, “Donald Trump, Jr. has the worst judgement in the world.” In other words, es un idiota.

@blakehounshell @chrismunns It's very similar to the Nixon era -- look at the international agreements Pres Nixon was hammering out at the time he, Tricky Dick, was obstructing justice and worse vis-a-vis Watergate. Kinda amazing.

Hell of a day when the possibility of war between two nuclear powers is, like, the third story at best on cable

@Ana_M_Medina @bridgetkromhout It’s what we knew but hoped that somehow we were wrong and there was something of substance if not quality to the elected POTUS...and nope. It’s Idiocracy.

@bridgetkromhout The exact same thing happened to me :l

Was about to go to sleep. Read this and wow. Tomorrow is gonna be bananas. 🍌🍌
