    Here’s me and @jennapederson making sad faces because @lynnlangit isn’t at #awsreinvent. 😩 https://t.co/Flca8jOnbl


    I finally got to meet @IanMmmm in person! He’s like, “Where’s @the_snook?!” 😂 We’re basically the Jay & Silent Bob of tech. #awsreinvent https://t.co/g13QUqfJGx


    Just met up with @vikomex at the Developers Lounge. “KRIS! I saw your interview with @mavi888uy and it was so helpful!” 😍 I can’t wait to see how many folks get the job of their dreams in 2022… https://t.co/q5qg3UWbAr

    @lemon_lime Belinda sent me several packs from Oz! ❤️🏳️‍🌈 (I sent her photos tonight and told her they were a hit!)


    @pgarbe Except for that stupid giant beer garden advertisement. 😐

    We had lunch at Momofuku Las Vegas today! Pork buns, noodles, and ramen. 😍


    First day of #AWSreInvent flew by! I helped out at the Developer Lounge booth for a few hours, where I shared some Aussie stickers. Then I attended the AWS Heroes party and caught up with my German buddies next to an amazing view. 😍🍻

    The snow is coming down, but we’re heading to the airport and enjoying our last maskless bit of fresh air for probably 19 hours. #reInvent here we come! @ Munich, Germany https://t.co/x7aTDIi16D


    Munich suburb names that the Aussies always giggle at: 1) Bogenhausen. 2) Daglfing


    RT @Grady_Booch: Best definition of Proof of Work ever: “burn electricity in a provable way” https://t.co/T8RdRORBV0


    @gilmae Some of my colleagues were trying to convince me to move to Bogenhausen. “It’s cheaper!” I bet it is. Aber wo ist Hipsterdorf??

    Made our connection in Chicago with like 9min to spare. Highlights of the first leg were 1) the lady who refused both of the lunch options on the grounds that she was “allergic to curry” and 2) overhearing a ton of people talking about “going to AWS”. 🤣 #reInvent
