Craziest boarding ever? The usually efficient people @AmericanAir let chaos rule for AA67 BCN to JFK this afternoon. After calling group 1, the screens showed group 5... and things devolved from there. Fingers crossed the flight is more typical. Lovely aircraft though. :) – at Barcelona, Spain

Between @ASelipsky yesterday @SwamiSivasubram this morning, I'm really impressed with the vision turned reality @awscloud is delivering for #data. Impressive stuff at #reInvent2022! Looking forward to the @RubaBorno partner keynote this afternoon!

Deeper dive into @Atlassian #Compass with the always entertaining @topofthehill. Early days, but the integration with @Jira and the sheer number of @AtlassianMarket partners that can be engaged augers well for its potential. Get on the beta! #AtlassianTeam22 #AtlassianCompass

Fascinating talk by @grok_ on Human Robot Interactions this afternoon. I'm going to need to rethink some things in my view of the future. Love it when content is this good! #DellTechWorld

Great #DellTechWorld keynote kickoff so far today. Tops was, per usual, @MichaelDell's infectious enthusiasm and optimism for the future. The key six in "The Digital Future is Now" portion were right on, though I would move up security in the order...

Up bright and early putting in the first coffee and getting warmed up for another great #DellTechWorld 2020 style!

Good keynote @SASsoftware @ #SASGF virtual event this morning. Fun to catch @rwang0 in my screenshot. Thought: These types of virtual events are getting better, but still too easy to be distracted when not in-person. Maybe once the media is more immersive than a screen...

Pretty much what equates to well more than a year's supply (640 bags) of my favorite tea brands, PGtips and Yorkshire Gold.
