Okay folks, it's time: I'm hiring!

Looking for 5(!) developer relations engineers across the world! Our company is remote-first but this role involves in-person appearances at events so although you don't need to work in a specific office we are focusing our search in specific metro areas:

Sometimes (often) business travel looks like working on PowerPoint decks and demos in hotel rooms.

But I'm grateful.

Kubernetes and open source software power Microsoft products and services; we contribute upstream and use open source in production ourselves. @lachie.bsky.social & Jorge Palma at the #KubeCon Azure pre-day.

11/11 at 11am and the entire Brisbane Domestic Airport departures hall was standing and silent for Remembrance Day. What a moment to stop and remember those who served.

Lest we forget.

If your Windows 11 account in Entra ID is disabled or removed, the easiest way to remediate is "dsregcmd /leave" in an Administrator elevator command prompt. Then reboot and rejoin the org.

At the stage of business travel where my travel laptop is out of date and disconnected from my org, so I have to go through the process of removing it from Entra ID and readding it again.

4 more sleeps until I start my travel to San Francisco for Microsoft Ignite. I'm so excited to connect with people again.

Australia adds Reddit to the list of sites that you won't be able to open an account on if you are under 16.
I'm now waiting for the kids to creat GitHub pages instead & try to explain to their parents what a "pull request" is.

Negative film: Kodak's version
this is very cool: Kodak quietly relisted Kodak Gold and Ultramax on its website and confirmed to me it is selling the films directly to photography stores again. this is a big deal because for the last decade, Kodak has not controlled distribution of its own film
