Cool to see PCs for People and the great work they do at Minnedemo!
Great to see SportNgin’s Carson Kipfer presenting their mobile app at Minnedemo!
At least 15 people from #TeamSPS at Minnedemo tonight! Say Hi!
Very impressive demo from Kidizen, very fluid UI and great mobile experience.
I think I need to get a Double Robotics for our #TeamSPS Tech Centers!
Nice demo from CartStack.
Minnedemo wouldn’t happen without the volunteers. A personal thank you to all of you! You make our tech community great!
Welcome Liam Confrey to #TeamSPS!
In awe at the depth and strength of the #TeamSPS sales teams! Amazing group Charley Hackerson, David Novak, and David Verette
First trip to Kharkiv to meet #teamsps was awesome! So much talent and enthusiasm. Great time!
Boarded ✈️ in KBP to AMS. The exit door of this airplane is very cold. Weather in Ukraine feels identical to Minnesota.
✈️ UIA plane headed to AMS.
2.5 + 3.5 + 4.5 + 3.75 = approximate hours of sleep for each day of this trip. (Crazy tired.)
Just landed in MSP! Long day of flying!
Customs, then Baggage claim, then Uber, then big hugs at home!
Team meeting and tech walkthrough with one of #teamsps Kharkiv Dev teams.
Now that is a beer!

AWS re:Invent - Day 1
Ready for AWS re:Invent!
Perhaps the largest dining hall ever. AWS re:Invent
Great seat for AWS re:Invent keynote.
Rob Krystyniak, @maas_8128,@zwingocom, @LukeSamaha, @scottbjer, and @pixelsnbits 👍 #TeamSPS ready for AWS re:Invent keynote!
“we are finally data center free!” quote from AWS re:Invent
9,000 attendees from 57 countries. AWS re:Invent
Amazon Workspaces. Huh.
Great to see former colleagues at Dow Jones getting highlighted at AWS re:Invent! Congrats all!
Amazon AppStream looks interesting.
Tradeworx segment of #awsreinvent keynote is mind blowing.
Terabyte of data added a day to S3.
This graph shows the power of AWS.
Attending Big Data: State of the Union session by Paul Duffy at AWS re:Invent.
Morning keynote at AWS re:Invent was great. Hit right topics. Expanded thinking.
Crap. Phone is at 12% battery already! Argh.
Love the Amazon Public Datasets and Big Open Data effort. Great stuff.
You could make a lot of $$$ selling precharged battery packs for phones at #awsreinvent.
I don’t know what’s more impressive: AWS scaling or the dining service feeding 9,000 people.
Pro tip for those in #awsreinvent dining hangar and trying to find people. The pillars have numbers.
At session about Amazon Redshift at #awsreinvent with Rob Krystyniak.
Going to Netflix Development Patterns for Rapid Iteration, Scale, Performance & Availability session at AWS re:Invent next.
Someone should make a twitter client optimized for conferences.
Netflix red, black and blue systems concept is very smart. Did something similar at Dow Jones but no blue concept.
I think it might finally be time to move all my personal web stuff to AWS.
Guys in suit coats playing ping pong at #awsreinvent Dev Lounge.
Fun running into @jondahl at AWS re:Invent!
