    Oh hi, Auckland. ❤️ https://t.co/ZAMVkFnbP9 https://t.co/7bCuDLbxJY


    @jonoabroad Uh, just that I’m here emceeing a conference tomorrow? Nothing more secret squirrel than that.


    Really thrilled to kick off today’s @DevOpsTalks NZ with local legend @DefSol! Come say hi during the break. (Did I mention I brought STICKERS?) #dotc19 #devops #dotcnz https://t.co/SO5Ode1akn


    Forget SLAs. @jennski says Site Reliability Engineering should focus on Service Level Objectives, which are internal measures and map to customer experience. SLAs are just contractual agreements – rarely around customer happiness. #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/j7FaRnBmjc


    @DheerajNayal23 @DevOpsTalks @DEVOPSINST Where is @DefSol?! 😂


    RT @DheerajNayal23: @web_goddess kicks off the @DevOpsTalks Auckland 2019 with a full house of Humans of #DevOps.

    @DEVOPSIN…


    “100% is the wrong reliability target for pretty much everything.” QFT! 👏 @jennski #dotc19 #dotcnz #devops https://t.co/N3VuGfB4FP


    Can’t wait to show the #shebuilds on @awscloud team that @botchagalupe added our sticker to his well-decorated laptop! #dotc19 #dotcnz #devops https://t.co/2CDB6pTX0M


    @DefSol @DheerajNayal23 @DevOpsTalks @DEVOPSINST I meant in the photo! 😂


    Making the SRE function be all toil is like eating nothing but very spicy food. “Pain is not a flavour.” @jennski’s suggestion is to keep toil < 50%. #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/lpUVHKTjVA


    Dumping *all* production services on an SRE team cannot work. (Lots of snickers of agreement from the audience!) SREs need time to make tomorrow better than today. #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops @jennski https://t.co/6YWhjdb03v


    “Human” errors are really systems problems. You can’t fix people, but you can fix processes and make them better. #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/jssCuqx8rn


    Dave Corlett and Richard Jarrett from @WestpacNZ on their 4 year DevOps transformation. Started from only a handful of releases a year, 500+ page governance docs, silos, low morale… #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/CFlYJ8AJ4L


    “What would a great day at work feel like?” Collaboration. Integrity. Feeling valued. #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/Pqkgz1ezMc


    Lessons for leadership from @WestpacNZ’s transformation. Give intent. Create a safe environment. Let the experts be the experts. And TRUST – the people closest to the work know the risks and issues better than anyone else. #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/VedAndNmga


    People who’ve spent a long time being told what to do can struggle with empowerment. YES. I’ve been working through this right now. It’s challenging when folks want you to give them hard rules and prescriptive direction. #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/78St4U4Iqh


    @jennski @Westpac Yes! They’re so good. 😁

    Open source software is great… but it can also burn your house down. Only took @djsauble 3 minutes to invoke left-pad! #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/Uk4iAaeBGa


    TIL about the WTFPL. Thanks @djsauble. 😂 https://t.co/HnH6bpQxyo #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/uSuRiJSIfn


    It me. 😭 (Classic and appropriate xkcd from @djsauble to illustrate OSS versioning hell.) #dotc19 #dotcnz #devops https://t.co/2hLjGV9NSI


    RT @jennski: Recommended read: The Checklist Manifesto. But checklists have limitations. Don’t scale well with complexity #dotcnz https://t…


    Just like shipping working software, enterprise change efforts need to show results regularly to keep people engaged. You need to share successes as well as failures. @GeorgePutnam @clearpointnz #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/VTo4DHdSRf


    RT @Katellification: Explicit recognition of the Agile manifesto and DevOps principles overlap by @GeorgePutnam @clearpointnz #dotcnz


    “Be light on process” does not mean “have no process.” AMEN. 🙌 Dear hip disruptive startup types: please memorise that. (You know who you are.) #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops @GeorgePutnam https://t.co/OajCI6v8p3


    How to keep people’s attention before lunch: lots of gifs, and throwing lollies at the audience. 👏 @_sarahyo #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/KmVrw4U05d


    Nice metaphor for the shared responsibility model and SaaS, PaaS, IaaS, and Private Cloud. @_sarahyo #dotcnz #dotc19 #devops https://t.co/AaoXW4miM5


    So far every container security horror story @_sarahyo has told ends with Bitcoin mining. Because of course. 😂 #dotc19 #dotcnz #devops https://t.co/pXctHZJIjS

    @girlgerms Well said, Jess. I too learned about contempt culture from @aurynn and it was such an eye opener to finally have a name for the thing I was swimming in.
