Ladies SRE at #srecon! With my dear friends and co-chairs of SREcon21 @reesencybias and @van_yiu and my Lightning Talks co-chair for SREcon19 EMEA @manjiki

We got caught while working on closure remarks for #srecon with @niallm

Roadtrip to north and west of Ireland is over. Loads of memories. Will miss Connemara landscapes for a while…

#srecon 2022 Americas submissions are due, last weekend to apply your talk or panel! Hurry up!

Your attitude and the potential to influence and inspire the rest of the team is much more important than the number of coding languages you can write “Hello world” on

When you need to do something that requires a lot of focus and time (hours/days) - it maybe hard to start, so you keep #procrastinating. What I do is to tell myself I’ll only do 30 min of it and define what exactly I’ll do. Usually that’s enough to start and spend hours on it!

If you are in a search for a new role, don’t just look for roles that map to your past experience. Look for roles that will help you to develop new experiences - think about your potential to grow and learn in the new role and if it will be fun to work with the new team

As I was preparing my talk for AllDayDevOps my research took me to the field of cognitive load and neocortex size studies. And I suddenly realised how stretchable our capacity is with the right practice and a growth mindset! Today you are more effective and smart than yesterday!

I made scones for Sunday breakfast! I am becoming very Irish :)

Have you registered for #SREcon21? I am looking forward to it and planning to attend as many sessions as I can around timezones and interact with attendees on the chat throughout all conference for Q&A and discussions on the talk topics! Join us for the SRE event of the year:)

As we are getting ready for the next #srecon21 I keep thinking on how many wonderful people I met thanks to this conference and how much I learned and how much more interesting my life became thanks to all those new connections and adventures! Thank you, #usenix!

Dropping this here as I am really trying to be more active on Twitter:) usenix.org/publications/logi… #sre #srecon #usenix Shepherded by @manjiki with @lauralifts support:)

Two weeks of staycation holidays. I left my laptop at home and am exploring west and north corners of Ireland. Since the beginning of the pandemic I struggled to unplug, and it seems like a new skill I need to practice more:)
