A late lunch in Collingwood… 🍻
We spent our last morning in Melbourne wandering St. Kilda and checking out the community garden, before heading to Collingwood for window shopping… ☀️🦋🌊💸

Enjoying a hot sunny day in Melbourne with some beers at the Queen Vic markets. ☀️🍻
Wannabe NYC-Melbourne hipsters. 🥯
We had a fun afternoon exploring ACMI and adding our selfies to our friend J’s AI-generated art exhibit. Then we headed over to the Regent to see “& Juliet,” a Shakespearean jukebox musical that spoke to both my inner 16yo theatre kid and my 46yo woman who just wants to see Millsy sing the Backstreet Boys. So fun. ❤️
All mic’ed up and ready to go! Time to close out ServerlessDays ANZ. ❤️🎤 #slsdaysanz
Thanks to all the amazing organisers, presenters, and attendees at ServerlessDays ANZ! I learned heaps, I had fun, and it was so nice to reconnect with all my tech industry friends. ❤️
Finally debuted my Vera Dress from Made590 at ServerlessDays in Melbourne today. I’m sure literally no one else there recognised the beautiful Rifle Paper Co. fabric, but it definitely made me feel polished and confident! ❤️
Heading to Melbourne for #ServerlessDaysANZ! Can’t wait to meet up with everybody… ✈️
It’s a beautiful night in Melbourne… ❤️
Going live in 15 minutes on twitch.tv/aws for a special edition of the AWS She Builds Tech Skills show for International Women’s Day! 💜
While I was just on a Twitch stream for International Women’s Day, inspiring the young women of Australia to join the tech industry and negotiate hard for themselves, Rodd Snook sent this to me. 🤣❤️
The Snook’s “clean out the fridge” dinners aren’t like other people’s. Tonight was rump steak with mushroom duxelles, green beans, and cauliflower mac & cheese. 😍

Only 4 more sleeps until ServerlessDays ANZ! There’s still time to get a ticket and join us in Melbourne… https://anz.serverlessdays.io/
It’s a hot day. Bubble O’Bill and Spider-Man didn’t survive.
Nipped out to a local cafe for brunch before returning to our cave to cower from the sun. ☀️
I finally wrote down my thoughts about the whole #RoaldDahl rewrite kerfuffle over the past couple weeks. I was quoted in the Telegraph article that broke the story, and it was honestly a little scary to get pulled into a culture war. For the record, I don’t support the changes, but only because they let Dahl off the hook for his indefensible and wrong attitudes. He wasn’t a saint, and I think he’d reject being put in that position himself.
It’s going to be a big week! I’m making my first appearance on the APAC edition of the She Builds Tech Skills program, in a special episode for International Women’s Day. We’ll be streaming live on twitch.tv/aws from 2pm AEDT on Wednesday. (That’s 7pm PDT Tuesday for those of you in the US!)
I spent a good twenty minutes today playing with the browser demo of Jane Austen’s 8-bit Adventure. It’s awesome! Can’t wait for the full version to drop.
