    Hey @LukeMesiti – Nice to meet you today and hear about @juniordev_io! I’ll be checking it out. 🙂


    Paging @auxesis… 😂 #yownight https://t.co/XSJ1RLqTl8


    @auxesis PHEW!!


    So excited to kick off tonight’s @yow_oz #yownight at @Zendesk with our speaker @auxesis! https://t.co/kZFoa4hCcR


    RT @saramic: #yownight about to get started https://t.co/ZU4D5X7fkA


    The AU government has over 2200 different websites… *that they know of. 😳 – @auxesis #yownight


    Oh nice. The @DTO has built https://t.co/LSKtn1twnu – a prototype of how AU gov services might be joined up online. #yownight


    In the past, gov releases were big, stressful events. Now with continuous integration and delivery, releases are a non-event. #yownight


    It’s a myth that organisations need to choose between speed and reliability. #yownight https://t.co/upHQcqsDID


    Man, @auxesis is killing it. Such a good speaker. Brisbane and Sydney – #yownight tickets are still available!! https://t.co/7J44Yepb48


    RT @evanderkoogh: Pay attention large corps. Even the Australian government has figured it out: #yownight @dto https://t.co/OG6zjaDGbT

    I continue to be delighted by the concept of the government’s ORCA. #yownight https://t.co/q5aLVHuIhn

    Wow. Surface Studio video actually got applause!


    @gilmae At one point he referred to an “app plat.” I couldn’t tell if he misspoke or he’s trying to make plat happen.


    Wow. Mark Kelly actually did use HoloLens aboard the ISS. #MicrosoftDev https://t.co/l7vK1pkOAk
