The fact that EVs still depend on 12v batteries is insane to me. I should never have to jump an EV with 80% EV battery left because of a dead 12v. This is dumb.

Timeline is soooooo slow to load recently. Almost think it’s broken every time I load the app.

Thunder and lightning storm. So rare up here but definitely makes me miss home.

Golf match play event. Tied going into the last hole. 164 yard par 3. $10k for a hole in one. Came up 9 inches short for the ace, but won with the birdie. Very mixed emotions.

One of the @bryanbrosgolf was a 3-time All-American at South Carolina. The other shot 101 while at USC. Which one became a PGA TOUR winner and which is making his TOUR debut this week? They demonstrate the unexpected paths this game can take us on: pgatour.com/article/news/tou…

That is right, I'm speaking at AWS re:Invent yet again. This year going deep into the AWS .NET SDK to hopefully teach something you never knew.
Join us at AWS re:Invent and learn to get the most performance for your #dotnet apps from #AWS SDK for .NET, in this session by @socketnorm. This session goes beyond simple examples and shows advanced methods to maximize performance and reliability. go.aws/3tVcroA

Shot my best #golf round of the year today, a 74 with 5 birdies, one lost ball and one triple. Feels pretty good knowing there’s still a number of shots left on the table!

I clearly don’t use Windows enough, as after using my home laptop tonight I have realized that it’s no longer Windows, it’s just an extended advertising interface for Microsoft.

All my old cricket pads and gear (from when I was in my teens) are finally being thrown out. They served me well for ~20 years! (And have been in storage for 8 years…)

Anyone flying through SEATAC, especially with kids, go use the spot saver. It is amazing.

The year was 1997. I got a game for my birthday. 26 years later the 12-string guitar strum sends chills down my spine. Tomorrow we party like it’s 1997. Happy Diablo’s eve, all 😈

Just to clarify - our AWS Step Functions strategy most assuredly does NOT involve making Lambda obsolete! We're working to make it easy for you to harness Lambda to solve your most complex problems (think Distributed Map), while reducing the # of overhead functions you write.
Step Functions is the #1 serverless service right now (with EventBridge following closely!) And the SF team is not stopping, their roadmap covers all I could imagine wanting. They definitely have the goal to make Lambdas obsolete 😄

Gotta love the need to reinstall Windows every <time period>. Have never had that need with a Mac. Windows though, Win11 update 22H2 simply won’t complete. Multiple attempts. Multiple rollbacks. Multiple *forced* attempts that I can’t prevent. Time to waste a few hours.

Windows Hello. You literally just scanned my face and you don’t recognize it. 🤨

Jpeg file. “No such interface supported”. Really? You can’t even open a jpeg by default!?
