    Archer has ruined my brain. 😂 https://t.co/AqGpcPk6X4


    @The_McJones It’s debatable. 😂


    Damn it, @troyhunt. I had a brief glimmer of hope that I wasn’t in this breach, but just got the notification. https://t.co/ku7AOhhDY5


    @i386 LOL. We nearly went there today but wisely decided we’d suffer with old curtains for a few more months.


    DAMN IT. Did a periodic clean out of FB Messenger requests and discovered yet another senior Aussie woman in tech inviting me to her leaving-do as she heads to the US to work for a big SV company. @techsydneyau – we really need to tackle the SV braindrain.


    Bonus crappiness – because FB Messenger sucks, I missed the invitation and thus the leaving-do and she’s already friggin’ GONE.

    @minxdragon I had zero exposure to canon before so it was all new to me. I think I just found Carol too blank, even after she stopped trying to suppress emotion. I just didn’t click with her, even though I wanted to. 😕


    @minxdragon In comparison to Wonder Woman, who made me cheer and cry multiple times.


    Okay, only two of these left. “Ridiculous chase scene imminent!” https://t.co/ER2Bf0WqrZ


    Hey this time we get a good song! “It’s not Shirley but I’ll take it.” https://t.co/dd0gdHrora


    Okay, so far this movie is actually way better than I remember. https://t.co/iaaWYv1csK


    Quick poll: did Bond and Moneypenjy shag? @the_snook thinks cut to fireworks = did it. I disagree. https://t.co/LbIPvep2OC


    @the_snook Okay, I forgot about the “it’s amazing what you can do with an extra pair of hands” line. I stand corrected. I’m now on team Shag.


    Awwww yeah. Note to self: look up Skyfall fan fiction. https://t.co/qtuhVo8MNu


    Ew, David. https://t.co/I3x9C5g5Zc


    “It’s obfuscated code to conceal its true purpose!” Okay, this is getting stupid. Q just plugged an untrusted device into the MI6 network. My cat knows better than that. https://t.co/gLUhOoZ8Ja


    @randomknits Nice shirt @gilmae. 😂


    Meeting @JadeHameister when we both spoke at TEDx Melbourne a few years back was pretty cool. You should go watch her talk! https://t.co/UldMpapQlS (Thanks @jontv for the opportunity!) https://t.co/th0SpH7Tek

    RT @gilfer: We waited for you last year but you didn’t rock up. November 19, every year. https://t.co/5vLE1UkRcx https://t.co/hDGrLKnLnA


    Really, really in the mood to watch Brie Larson punch aliens in the face. #captainmarvel 🍦🥂⭐️ https://t.co/YC3NMOOVg7 https://t.co/B13j2zLruB


    Let’s be honest – casting Jude Law in your film is as much a spoiler these days as casting Sean Bean.


    I can’t be the only person greeting their cat with “Who’s a cute widdle Flerkin??” today. 😻


    I had some lingering questions about the Captain Marvel plot that I shared on Metafilter. Trying to figure out how the plot actually hung together really kept me from enjoying the film as much as I wanted to. 🙁 https://t.co/oEWynoIZQF

    @cathyblabla @the_snook Well, Frente made it to the US so I had some familiarity. Pauline Pantsdown was an early discovery. And I do know INXS, of course, but perhaps not the early early stuff…

    Facilitator: “Guess how many LinkedIn profiles in Australia have ‘ninja’ in them?”

    Me: “Too many.” 😐

    Lots of folks interested in learning how to build modern applications with containers and @awscloud today! If you want to have a go, the labs are available publicly here: https://t.co/OxL8zfaxWB https://t.co/8QrltgG5f4

    @evanderkoogh @Amys_Kapers @philnash I thought I’d lose my Airpods. I haven’t though after more than a year. They don’t fall out of my ears (even though normal earbuds do all the time), and they work amazingly. They are worth the money.

    @jedws I’ve seen a few eps. He plays the drums, right? 😉


    RT @michaeljankie: Just putting it out there to startups in Aus, if you are not mates with @mattallen you are at a disadvantage.


    RT @msandfor: @GlennSarti’s talking about all the cool people @patrickdebois @nicolefv @web_goddess … @Amys_Kapers really should be here…


    @msandfor @GlennSarti @patrickdebois @nicolefv @Amys_Kapers @readify @puppetize 😵❤️ I think @GlennSarti has now namechecked that talk several more times than I actually gave it!


    @cathyblabla Gold indeed! I only know like three of these. @the_snook has been remiss.

    The Snook is introducing me to Frontline, Aussie satirical show from 1996. One of the characters just mentioned asking Michael Jackson about rumours he liked to sleep with 8yos. #stilltopical https://t.co/VEBZosJ8j1


    @anthonypjshaw I need to google who Con the Fruiterer was.


    Third episode is about tabloid journalists whipping up xenophobic terror of ethnic gangs. This shit is now stunningly prescient.


    @gilmae Yeah, Rodd’s response was that this stuff is perennial.


    @boyter Oh god, Ben, I’m so sorry to hear about your Mom and your health challenges. SV offers are not the pinnacle of our industry, and you’re going to have plenty more options in the future. Being there for your family is way more important.


    Thanks to everyone who recommended various content from @workingdogprod for me. I’ve been living in Australia for 17 years though, so you can safely assume I’m au fait with all Aussie culture post 2000ish. It’s really just the old stuff I don’t know.


    Except for The Castle, of course. I’m not a goddamn monster.


    @gilmae *insert relevant taco gif*
