    2019 is the year I go to war on drive-by Meetup RSVPers who don’t turn up. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. https://t.co/kUTNbuDXGr


    @zarahjutz There’s no set plan yet on how I plan to punish them, but I’m working on it.


    Folks in SYD, come along on Feb 5th to engage with @jrhunt, delivering his world famous AWS re:Invent re:Cap – great opportunity to learn about all the services launched last year and get more details – https://t.co/s2GsSk5eMM @AWSCloudANZ


    @jrhunt LOL, you can thank @wadeis for the specific wording. ๐Ÿ˜‰


    @Gaohmee My Dad just texted me from the US about this! He’s too much of a wimp to step out in the cold and take a photo for me. ๐Ÿ˜›


    @Gaohmee I now have some photos of blurry blobs of light. ๐Ÿ˜‚


    Looking for a new role? I’m hiring a dedicated Startup Solutions Architect for my team in Sydney. If you live and breathe tech and have startup experience under your belt, I’d love to talk to you about this one! https://t.co/kpMNbAOcU4


    @NaveenS16 Just because I was basing it off an existing tutorial: https://t.co/66DM8pKGpM


    @heuschnupf Neither. Basically forked the web app tutorial from here: https://t.co/66DM8pKGpM


    RT @ReinH: well I can’t argue with this https://t.co/ddVRRMvy9i


    @richbuggy @JessTelford I know – I gave him my wish list like a year ago. Code faster Jess!! ๐Ÿ˜‚

    @randomknits Ugh, that sucks. ๐Ÿ™


    Successfully built a web app today with serverless backend, REST API, user authentication, and DynamoDB integration. Then I went to Coles and only realised halfway through the shop that my shorts were on backwards. ๐Ÿ™„


    @darthted I know exactly what you mean.


    @twasink Yup.


    @msharp @wingletang Hmmm. I donโ€™t do a lot of toy knitting – too fiddly – so Iโ€™ll pass on these!! Thanks. ๐Ÿ™‚


    Thinking of all my friends at #LCA2019 this week and hoping they have the BEST time! So proud to see the Art + Tech miniconf happening again due to amazing efforts of @maetl. ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ–ผ๏ธโค๏ธ๐Ÿ’ป @minxdragon @KathyReid @unixbigot @voltagex and everybody else…


    @jeffblankenburg @AmazonPrime I’ve recently discovered Schitts Creek on Netflix and I’m really enjoying it!


    @Techman_83 Awwww, glad to see the Hug Detector is still happening!! โค๏ธ


    @voltagex @maetl @minxdragon @KathyReid @unixbigot That was more the “waving at folks I’m sad I won’t get to catch up with” part of the tweet. ๐Ÿ™‚


    There were some good tech puns in the replies to this one. Just now over coffee the Snook offered his: “Unit tests passed; integration tests failed!” https://t.co/39Cj3XVqst

    @misswired Ahhh, this is why my Mom’s dog creeps me out, because he has it and he therefore looks like a person that has been cursed to live as a dog.


    I know some of you think Konmari is bullshit, but it inspired the Snook to finally get rid of some old clothes, including a jacket that had a movie stub for Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire – from 2005! – in the pocket. https://t.co/Kk4ZkiKcuD


    Dropping off clothes at Smith Family. โ€œAre you guys here because of the Netflix show?โ€ ๐Ÿ˜‚


    Come to Mama… https://t.co/n7haPCafHu https://t.co/te0eCAWpMD


    @jonoabroad Corner Smith in Marrickville. Iโ€™m sure some poor sap in the gig economy could be enticed to bring you one…


    Ploughmanโ€™s lunch. (Note him staring at my toastier though!) https://t.co/fLFZZcYBrK https://t.co/NuL2qf50TS


    @annie_parker So full. ๐Ÿท


    @itgrrl Same! I’m jealous of everybody heading that way…


    Monkey business afoot… https://t.co/eUYRjbSRpH https://t.co/tTOysubF7v


    Watching the Fyre Festival doc, and I had NO IDEA the guy behind the debacle was a tech entrepreneur. I thought he was just a promoter. That explains so much. ๐Ÿ˜‚


    The Snook: โ€œSome people want to party on a private island with models. *I* just want that ladyโ€™s living room.โ€ ๐Ÿ˜‚ https://t.co/1IF1XOZF4N


    RT @sailorhg: adding this to pre-empt the inevitable โ€œisnโ€™t it insulting to imply that girls need pink & sparkles to be interested in tech?โ€ฆ


    Melbourne – I finally convinced the Snook to take me on the tram restaurant for my birthday, and I just found out it’s GONE! What happened?? ๐Ÿ˜ญ https://t.co/85FUWxDmah


    @themaninblue Yeah, when he got out the wadding I was like, where the hell is this going? Quilted denim next to that beautiful deskktop??!
