    “If you use a Mac laptop, using Chrome instead of Safari can cost you an hour or more of battery life per day.” https://t.co/KurecjUzkr

    I had no idea. I’m going to switch today and see if makes a difference.

    @kevdesign I’m not writing code as my day job anymore – only recreationally. Can always dip back to Chrome for that.

    @mootpointer You’d think the Daily Ritual of Restarting Chrome would’ve tipped me off to that…

    Goes for AU too! Hot topic on @GGDSydney Slack channel yesterday was a recruiter spamming women on LinkedIn with poetry. (Yes, really.) https://t.co/tYGE28CchZ

    @evanderkoogh We have a #jobs channel! Always happy to share any openings you know of. 😁

    My new favourite quote: “A really well-made buttonhole is the only link between Art and Nature.” – Oscar Wilde https://t.co/qEIbUJ9iTd

    @gilmae I’m suddenly hungry. https://t.co/tLW4F6Dndl

    @twelveeyes I suspect he was, but as a sewist, I prefer to think about very well made buttonholes in clothing. 😀

    I’m enjoying Masterchef, but no, I don’t believe that edible art installations are really a Thing. Even in hipster Melbourne.

    @emd3737 I actually feel like this is one of the cases where crochet would work better. PS I suck at crochet, so no.

    @valeriekhoo I love it! I hope you can bring macrame back into vogue. As a child of the 70’s, I miss it. 🙂

    @vincentdesmet Looked for you at lunch but didn’t spot you before I had to bail. I’m going to be in SG next week for VoxxedDays. You??

    @vincentdesmet Ha. No afterparty for me – flying straight to HK for https://t.co/YHsWDCIufw the next day! Maybe we can catch up Wed or Thur?

    @mmastertheone Oh wow! And I like that pattern too. 😀

    Is that *really* what you meant to say, @Uber_Australia?! 🤔 https://t.co/cMa6CrVbz5 https://t.co/v9txXiXtNh

    @Uber_Australia Actually I’m being unfair. Could equally be @Livehireme’s wording.

    Learning about @FableCompiler from @alfonsogcnunez. Live coding demo over Skype while holding a baby? MAD SKILLS 👶🏻 #fsharpsyd https://t.co/aPy2QHSjba

    Looking forward to @bassjacob’s talk, which promises to be REASONable. (He and @slace are already going nuts with puns.) #fsharpsyd https://t.co/HpvjFzLWXv

    News flash! @bassjacob has announced a new Sydney Reason meetup, hosted by @ansarada. Excellent. #fsharpsyd https://t.co/bfNWpDFeMZ https://t.co/CnSB9oHPAb

    Good orchestration means you don’t have to teach best practices – they’re just baked in by default. #ContainerCamp @brendandburns https://t.co/Vy7F1ffAsG

    Intent-based APIs remind me of @bodil’s perfect language: “Computer, here’s what I want to do. Work out the details.” #ContainerCamp https://t.co/nAw68YxfjA

    Looking forward to @vishnukanan explaining some of the concepts of containers for those coming from VM world. #ContainerCamp https://t.co/v1Plq6OwxE

    @sharkshareGL @sebeckmas @Meyer_Sci @MGreen_science @OtletResearch @saveourseas Congratulations!!

    LOL. As a Conf organiser, I was keen to see if #ContainerCamp attendees use online question submission. First Q did not disappoint. 😂 https://t.co/7aJPQEZdGw

    My first afternoon in coworking space, and the guy next to me has just come back from a smoke. Ahhh, now I remember why offices suck.

    Needed perspective, I guess. Thanks @FakeSamRitchie. 🐕 💨 😂 https://t.co/jrHiQZ7JYL

    @aussielunix So many speakers ignore the benefits of localisation. 🙂

    Lots of good metaphors being used at #containercamp. @diogomonica talking orchestration. 🎶🎵 https://t.co/OcuM2pgQzW

    With 🎶 metaphor, external attacker is guy who throws tomato at musician. Internal attacker is chick running sound board. #ContainerCamp

    And the NSA is a cat that’s always listening. 😹 #ContainerCamp

    Where’s the best cafe in @surry_hills with wifi to get some work done? @johnallsopp @developerjack

    Having a debate with @the_snook. Do any of these emoji seem a little racist to you? If so – why? https://t.co/kI2SLnKdCf

    @piecritic Is that a yes?

    @piecritic Yeah, I associated it with the old Dr. Seuss/Bugs Bunny WWII-era propaganda. Also Mickey Rooney in Breakfast at Tiffany’s.

    @piecritic But I’m wondering if anyone under 30 would have that association. I reckon for younger generation, they might think of Revenge of the Nerds.

    Me: WTF is in my water? Oh. Artisanal charcoal. 😐 Seriously. https://t.co/0uKTazSjo9

    My cold brew came with accoutrements. I *think* they’re bits of chocolate? https://t.co/V4PcKiRx2I https://t.co/v07W9DSqpT

    It’s cocoa nibs. There are different condiments for different coffees. (Surry Hills takes this stuff seriously.)

    @Alegrya THEY ARE!

    @soxyface @1001011k I have long had a dream to knit some of the data visualisations here! https://t.co/Qy8aLfSU4A

    @trustheath That’s what I was thinking. But I’m not sure if anybody < 30 would recognise it…

    @trustheath Oh, I think they still see a stereotype. It’s just “Revenge of the Nerds” instead of racist!

    @candeira @the_snook Yeah, same. Also WWII-era Bugs Bunny propaganda. But would ppl < 30 know those references? I’m not sure.

    @joshduck @the_snook CANNOT UNSEE. THANKS JOSH.

    @gilmae @the_snook Oof. I didn’t even think about the yellow.

    Great little video from @yow_conf @YOWLambdaJam two weeks ago! Nice cameo by some of the @canva team too. 🙂 https://t.co/VWrfoSADWQ

    One advantage of containers is that it forces you to think about the FENCE – what’s inside the boundary, how you organise. #ContainerCamp https://t.co/CVd8OVdnVR

    Goal of orchestration – make it no more 💵 to run O(N) machines than O(1). (Talking human cost, not CPU, etc.) #containercamp
