  1. Not sure what I was doing here… praying? #AsyncAPIConf
    oh my god twitter doesn’t include alt text from images in their API
  2. Great day at @AsyncAPISpec Conf - it had the vibe of a small community meet-up more than a conference, and I loved it - huge thanks to everyone who contributed #AsyncAPIConf conference.asyncapi.com/venue/london
  3. first day back in the office after a week away, which means a chance to check on my pigeons... they've grown up so much in a week! youtu.be/nOVDyOImLzY
  4. Hello again, UK. That felt like a long flight… people who are able to sleep in economy seats on flights continue to amaze and baffle me. 🤷‍♂️
  5. Time for my last #IBMTechXchange session. Don’t let the soulless, windowless room fool you - it’s a rip-roaring thrill ride into the world of event processing

  6. I'm loving The Sphere, one of the new additions to Vegas since I was last here. It's hard to get your head around how enormous it is - as you walk towards it, it just doesn't seem to get any closer! thespherevegas.com
  7. continuing the live demos theme: @StephaneMery1 showing off IBM Event Automation at #IBMTechXchange ibm.com/products/event-automation

  8. I’m enjoying the branding at #IBMTechXchange - the rebus is a genuine classic

  10. My first #IBMTechXchange lab - a chance to get hands-on with Event Streams - is now done Three more to go - one for each of the capabilities in ibm.com/products/event-automation
    oh my god twitter doesn’t include alt text from images in their API
  11. I’m in Las Vegas all week for #IBMTechXchange Different vibe to the times I’ve been here before for Think - more Show than Tell. For example, I’m only doing one presentation all week, but I’m running four long, hands-on technical labs.
  12. Started our week in Vegas by going to see the Blue Man Group. Silly, creative, and with some awesome percussion!

  14. Added another social network (Bluesky) to my list at dalelane.co.uk Not sure cross-posting to lots of places is an effective way to engage, but it’ll do until I can work out where to make home
  15. I continue to be slightly obsessed with the pigeon nest on the ledge next to my desk... but I defy you to tell me the feeding at about 1 minute into this isn't the cutest thing you've seen today ;-) youtu.be/975q1M23hi4
  16. The pigeon eggs on the ledge next to my desk have hatched! 🪺 It's very sweet - their necks aren't strong enough to hold up their heads... 🥹 youtube.com/watch?v=e--eoCYF_tM
  17. AsyncAPI Conference comes to London in a couple of weeks - the agenda is looking super interesting. If you're interested in immersing yourself in documenting event driven applications for a day, you should get yourself a ticket conference.asyncapi.com/venue/london
  18. We've got work experience students at Hursley this week. Always fun - but this week is a bit different for me as F is one of them. She's on a different bit of the site to me with a different team, so she's spared embarrassing Dad - although I might get a lunchtime or two 🤷‍♂️
  19. In London - drove G to her new uni house, with a (packed!) car load of her stuff. Strange feels! 🥹
  20. Playdate cruelly got my hopes up by putting the new Lucas Pope game in the catalog - when I click through it says "Coming Soon". 🥹 play.date/games/mars-after-midnight/
  21. (very!) early start to the day - presenting about what we're doing with Event Endpoint Management at Apidays Connect Hong Kong apidays.hk
  22. Loving what I’m now thinking of as our new office pet: a pigeon that has started building a nest on the ledge next to my desk

  23. Arriving at work late today after needing to make a detour on my usual walk… because I don’t know how to say “excuse me” in cow

  24. I've created some #MQTT blocks for @scratch. You could make simple multiplayer games with this - if a #Scratch project published events about what a sprite is doing, this could be instantly reflected in other Scratch projects in other browsers. dalelane.co.uk/blog/?p=4974
  25. My first day at IBM was 20 years ago today. 😮 🎉 Ten years ago, I wrote dalelane.co.uk/blog/?p=2870 I think it all still applies... except today I can answer the question that ten-years-ago-me asked ("Will I be here for another ten years?")
  26. Finally completed Ratcheteer (a Zelda-esque game for the Playdate). Such a lovely game ❤️ play.date/games/ratcheteer/

  27. Adding #MQTT support to #Scratch means projects running in different browsers can communicate with each other dalelane.co.uk/blog/?p=4974
  28. Just watched the latest instalment of Tom Cruise Running. It was fun - especially the first half. I didn’t enjoy it as much as the last one, but that’s cos something-something-AI-kill-us-all movies bore me a bit
  29. #TearsOfTheKingdom has replaced almost all my other gaming - I’ve (somehow!) sunk 150 hours into it already, and still loving it

  30. First day back in the office after vacation. I've left headphones and all my aeropress filters at home, so I'm off to a good start(!)
  31. Listened to this on the drive home. I hadn’t heard of Prigozhin before last month, so this dive into where he came from was very interesting overcast.fm/+BCnL5RX0kE
  32. Finished filling in my Self Assessment for HMRC. Always a joy(!)
  33. I realise “twitter is kind of broken nowadays” is hardly an original observation, but wtf is going on with this
    oh my god twitter doesn’t include alt text from images in their API
  34. It’s ridiculous, but I’m looking forward to this. They must be reaching the limit of 80’s/90’s character names you can force “bro” into @NinSwitchNews/1684987678230790144
  35. Found Gatecrasher for the @playdate on itch - cool little game. There’s something about the novelty and responsiveness of the crank as a control mechanism that makes even simple ideas feel fun youtu.be/e5brbgCeVVo
  36. Footgolf-ing

  38. dalelane.co.uk/blog/?p=4964 I like trying new things… here are a few of the more unusual things I’ve tried in the last year. I think the flotation therapy was probably the most unusual…
  39. Checked in to my 100th beer - and it’s an unusual one… tastes like shandy but it’s 4% alcohol untp.beer/YO04D
  40. Batman’s head is taking shape
