Apparently our conferencing system is now located somewhere on the A413.

This has been a particularly bad week for people using my last name instead of my first on emails. "Hi Raffe!"

To prove a point: Please RT if you don't have a CS degree and you have a job in tech.

👏 You don't need a formal degree to succeed in tech. 👏 You don't need a CS degree to be a great product manager. 👏 Degrees are not magic! Hard work, intellectual curiosity, and good teamwork win every time. Sincerely, someone with a fancy degree. 💫

Blog migration complete. adamraffe.com is now hosted on Github pages using Jekyll (moved from hosted Wordpress). Now I just need a few new blog posts (will be remedied soon :-))

My #Cisco CCIE emeritus status expires in a couple of days. Really not sure whether to renew it or not. It's $85 for a year but I honestly don't get much benefit from it these days. On the other hand it seems a shame to lose it completely...

I should also clarify that I'm not saying the CCIE isn't useful or relevant - it's still a fantastic thing for people to achieve. It's just that my career trajectory changed somewhat and so it doesn't have too much relevance *for me* any more.

Hey @ShimanoROAD, I connected a D-Fly wireless unit to the Di2 on my brand new bike and the firmware update has completely killed the system! Seems this has happened to others - how can you ship a product with a bug this serious?

10 years ago, I was the network support engineer for Lehman Brothers at Cisco. What a strange day that was.

Made it through my first week at AWS. Very impressed at how SAs are onboarded - I'm following a very structured launch plan that I need to complete before I'm let loose on any unsuspecting customers :-)

Recruiter: “Hey, not sure how it’s going at AWS but I have a great opportunity if you’re looking to move”. Me: “I started at AWS today.”
