    @susiegii @BugHunterSam The other definition is: “an affectionate insult for someone who is, or is perceived to be, unfashionable, lacking self-consciousness about their appearance and/or with poor social skills yet affable and amusing.” That’s the one we were talking about!


    @gilmae @lemon_lime Wikipedia: “In Australia, it is often used as an affectionate insult for someone who is, or is perceived to be, unfashionable, lacking self-consciousness about their appearance and/or with poor social skills yet affable and amusing.” Not bad.

    @damovisa PLEASE call him. (Some idiot has signed up to a zillion job sites with my email address, and it would be my dream to call him and point out that perhaps his inattention to detail is part of the reason he is unemployed.)


    Very excited to attend the first @fra_aws meetup in over a year! Learning about DevSecOps for Serverless from @JohSpaeth at @CodeShield_io, who (coincidentally enough) lived in Brisbane for a while! But tonight, alles ist auf Deutsch… 🇩🇪🇦🇺 https://t.co/WTJk1dLBFx


    Not only did I use it, I broke all the high scores on Minesweeper on my Physics teacher’s computer using that nubbin! 🏆💅 https://t.co/gx0CvAh7Ul


    Spotify gets me. 🛥🍹🎵 https://t.co/90ntJD4a0F


    Me: “What’s the German word for dag?”
    Rodd: “Hmm. Google Translate doesn’t support Australian vernacular.”
    Me: “Perhaps this is why we are here… the question to answer.” 😂


    @abertrotzdem That looks like a literal translation… not so much the colloquial one. 😂

    My team Slack interactions with @GunnarGrosch these days are 90% him messaging me to say “Moose action going on!” and me replying “MOOOOOOOSE!” (I actually saw some today!) https://t.co/0Y4IJ3ECCk


    Very excited to attend my first @WWCodeBerlin meetup tonight, with a talk from @borzenko_lena! 😍 https://t.co/DGQPcncHTM


    I still get chills when I think about the fact that for 48 minutes of each orbit he was alone on the dark side of the moon, out of radio contact with Earth, more alone than any human being has ever been. That’s just… incredible. https://t.co/sDwm7vbuzM


    @WWCodeBerlin @borzenko_lena Advice from @borzenko_lena on learning a new tech: 1) start with some videos so you’ve got basic context; 2) dive into the documentation to start filling in gaps; 3) get hands-on and start trying things out!

    @heitor_lessa Happy to have a chat about this sometime, Heitor. It’s been a topic of conversation between me and @isahuerga as she makes that transition. I swung between manager and IC for a few years, though I’m definitely much more of a manager these days.

    @datachick I *hate * that type of thing. I had a boss once who gave out Christmas gifts – the guys all got nice bottles of booze; the women got scented candles. 😐

    @realtimshady You came *thisclose* on the Oscar Contest this year! Both you and Molly tied with 9 correct, but her guess of 55 was closer to the # of dead celebs (over 90!). Next time!! ❤️

    And the winner is…. Molly Manns! Molly has won this year’s Oscar Contest in a nail-biter with Tim Harris. Both correctly predicted 9 of the award winners, but Molly’s guess of 55 celebrities for the “In Memoriam” section was much closer than Tim’s guess of 33. (The actual count was over 90!)

    CONGRATS MOLLY! ❤️ The Rose family sock monkeys are all yours…

    Chill Sunday knitting with Kris, about to kick off… 🧶 https://t.co/YTHlokdD6L https://t.co/GYX2z4L4jC


    🚨 You’ve only got like 8 hours left to get your picks in for this year’s Oscar Contest! Remember, whoever gets the most correct will win a set of custom @SchittsCreek Rose family sock monkeys! https://t.co/yyq9nYsahs https://t.co/sMzsxd92YL


    @charrett Pretty sure there is? I’ve deleted the ones I don’t use. Let me check.


    @charrett This is on my phone, but it should be there on desktop too… https://t.co/cj5njrkiSd


    @charrett Haha, yeah, MUCH easier to spot on mobile! I’d have missed that too. 😂

    (I also need some volunteers to count how many folks are featured in the “In Memoriam” montage, as I’ll be asleep during the ceremony…)


    20km ride around Schloss Nymphenburg and through some neighbourhoods that were new to me!


    Photos from today’s long ride around Schloß Nymphenburg and through Friedenheim, Laim, Moosach, and more. And yes, I passed an actual Goggomobile driving down the road!! 😂🚴‍♀️
