California today, although not really.

It took me a 2-3 year journey and hundreds of customer conversations to decide multi-cloud isn’t a thing, save yourself the trouble and read this blog. Poly-cloud is the real deal IMO. @brianwix Thank you for introducing me to this term.

@TheNextSummitA1 Wool socks, REI brand or Merino.

What's your hiking sock strategy? Do you have a favorite brand or material you swear by? What about liners? 🏕🏔

that orchestra sound of their theme song, okay okay im bawling alright 😭 #FriendsReunion

Friends is still my goto show to fall asleep to in a hotel when I have to travel for work.

Watching the #FriendsReunion brought back so many memories. Even more awesome was celebrating a special occasion with @sindhuanand; we bonded over it as friends 19 years ago. That finale in 2004 was so difficult to handle, I had an exam the very next day, the only time I got a B-

@hikingwithshawn Mt Whitney, started at 11PM, 10:00 AM summit and 3:00 PM burger and fries at Whitney Portal. Debated carrying a 40lb pack and camping vs a 25lb pack and being fast and efficient- worked much better than the former which led to an unsuccessful attempt at Shasta.

What’s the longest you have ever hiked straight? Like in one day without resting for sleep?

@virtualized6ix Resistance bands, yoga and ultimate frisbee! But why can’t you lift?

So, my heavy lifting days are over 💔. And while that’s a massive punch to the gut, I’d love to hear your alternative approaches to staying fit. running/jogging, cycling are already on the list. What you got Twitter?

Definitions: Poly-cloud is the ability to mix and match based on different strengths of cloud providers. Multi-cloud is running the same service or application across multiple clouds.

Multi-cloud is non-sense. Poly-cloud is the real deal. Pick any one cloud and master it, optimize it and secure it. I have thought about this for many years, spoken to hundreds of customers. I’m done trying to redefine multi-cloud. Say it “Poly-cloud”.

@dashaun Someone went all in on micro-services and “stateless” implementation 😂

I put some items into my "shopping cart" before dinner, from my computer. Later, I was on my phone, wanted to "purchase" the items from my shopping cart. But to my surprise, my shopping cart was empty. Isn't a shopping cart something that normally gets persisted? Just me?

@karlchilds @woueb @JasonTweet7889 Do you request one or is it sent automatically?

@woueb @JasonTweet7889 Hopefully. I’ll check on it.

Those who go their vcdx plaques was there any tracking or email confirmation? Still haven't gotten mine yet or seen anything since the sign up page #vcdx let know:)

@virtualized6ix Hey Marino, check out PRX performance. Pricey but it is awesome @PRxPerformance

It’s scrappy and raw but, it gets the job done. Welcome to my home gym.

@QuinnyPig Spot on about everything else - culture, tech debt, if you bring in the big bucks, you could get away with a lot.

@QuinnyPig It is unfair to not call out the inherent Risk/reward ratio as you go from Engg to Sales Engg to Sales. On average, sales will make lesser than equally well qualified engineers. Sales quotas only go up ... YoY. If you are consistently hitting top accelerators, something’s amiss.

Since people are already melting down at an engineer’s salary, let’s pour fuel on the fire with a Hard Truth: Engineers are almost never the most highly compensated employees in a company.

@karlchilds @virtualisedgeek @pmcsharry Didn’t get it ... but I also need to update my email address.

@virtualisedgeek @pmcsharry If you didn’t get the email to accept your badge, let us know ASAP!!

@nickrusso42518 @NikkiMegaplaza The most sensible advice on this thread. Address the root cause and not the symptom.

@NikkiMegaplaza I suggest avoiding modalities like NSAIDs, balms, creams, and ice. Address the root cause; stretch daily, strengthen the surrounding muscles (including those around the hips), massage therapy (tennis/lacrosse ball and foam roller), and foot orthopedics as needed.

30+ Twitter, what do y'all do for knee pain on the days your knee randomly starts hurting?
