Interested in learning how Skyscanner are able to roll out multiple changes across 10s of Kubernetes clusters a day?
@ruio and @GJTempleton are speaking at @KubeCon_ about Skyscanner's approach to testing changes in production Kubernetes clusters and how you can build your own.

If anyone asks “Why Remembrance?”
I walk across this esplanade as Governor of @edinburghcastle & think of the men who were photographed here at start of WW1 & later picture of survivors at the end.
Just one Scottish unit.

I know it is tough to lose a trusted adviser at the height of crisis, but when it’s a choice of that or integrity of vital public health advice, the latter must come first. That’s the judgment I and, to her credit, Catherine Calderwood reached. PM and Cummings should do likewise.

Generally agree, but sometimes mistakes are made, and I think it's most important to be an error-correcting company that quickly fixes them and learns. Rather than taking a punitive approach to mistakes.
