Forgot how mad this thing is #awssummit

Quietly preparing myself for the madness of AWS summit tomorrow and a day with 20000 people around and yet speaking to nobody 😂

Championship remains the best league to watch for this reason

Someone at BrowserStack is Leaking Users' Email Address Like all good nerds, I generate a unique email address for every service I sign up to. This has several advantages - it allows me to see if a message is legitimately from a service, if a service is hacked the hackers can't go credential stuffing, and I instantly know who leaked my address.

If you need a 2 player game, and don't already have it, we really enjoyed this - boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/27...

Nuclear. Hell yes

Do I have a product manager joke? No

I mean, at least it was exciting

Only 1 more day to go to support Upfest 2026 - they're about £500 short at the mo with some great rewards remaining!

Artwork with text "my ducks are absolutely not in a row. I don't even know where some of them are... And I am pretty sure one of them is a pigeon!" and a picture of a pigeon

Hopefully they reach target so we get this kool reward

I just backed Upfest 2026 on @fundsurfer #crowdfund www.fundsurfer.com/crowdfund/up...
