Your best network engineer just gave notice. How much of what they know lives in a system vs. only in their head? Tribal knowledge isn't just an operational risk. It's an automation ceiling. Let me know how you handle this👇️ #NetworkEngineering #NetOps #Automation

Automation isn't a destination. It's a series of plateaus. Most teams aren't stuck because they lack tools. They're stuck because nobody gave them a map for the journey. Where's your team right now? 🤔

#Latvia hockey = dirtiest country team tactics I’ve ever seen… Olympic referees are the worst. @NBCOlympics @NHL These untalented referees need to go.

Did you know B.B. King was a legit computer nerd? 🎸💾 The King of the Blues owned a Commodore 64 in the early 80s and fell completely in love with the Commodore Amiga starting in 1986. He had at least two Amigas on the road and a souped-up one in his Vegas studio. He called his main Amiga “Lucille II” and used it to write songs, program drums, lay down horn sections, and arrange entire tracks with software like Bars & Pipes and Deluxe Music Construction Set — then he’d just play Lucille live on top. Straight from a 1987 AmigaWorld magazine interview: “I use it primarily for learning songs… I enter melodies from sheet music and then play along in real-time with Lucille. It’s real useful and lots of fun.” While the rest of the music world was slow to go digital, B.B. was out here sequencing blues on an Amiga computer he grinningly called his second lady. Absolute legend — on stage and in the studio. 👑
