I met @lisamarienamphy.bsky.social just as I was on my way out of All Things Open in 2023, and I'm sure glad that I did! Getting to hear Lisa's tech journey and all the things that she's done for the community, has been inspiring. Hope you're inspired too!

Last day at #kcdPorto, which included a quick catch-up with @aurelievache.bsky.social!

Some fun shots of @joshleecreates.bsky.social and me at #kcdPorto. You can see me with my mask peeking out of the top right corner of the second pic, as we play with a real working Macintosh of the Olden Days.

So excited to be back in Porto for my SECOND KCD Porto tomorrow! Aaaaand, this is the third leg of my European tour with @joshleecreates.bsky.social, as we get ready to speak about #OpenTelemetry vendor neutrality. Catch us on November 3rd at 14:10 in the Synvert room at the Alfândega do Porto. 🤘

A year ago today I sprained my ankle at the #bouldering gym. It was a bad sprain that took a long time to heal, but I made it back to the bouldering gym, stronger, albeit more cautious.

First pic: post injury. Second pic: 2 weeks ago.

T-minus 5 min to my talk at @cloudnativebergen.dev !

If you’re at @cloudnativebergen.dev today, check out my talk, “Observability is a Team Sport”, happening at 13:00 on the second floor. See you there!!

@cloudnativebergen.dev day 1 included a very awesome and memorable hike up Mount Ulriken to get to the speaker dinner (winner for most creative way to get to dinner). I also loved getting to hang with Diana Todea, Imma Vallis, and @boredabdel.bsky.social, who is EVERYWHERE! 😁😁

New city == bouldering and bubble tea. It is the order of things.

This was THE most hole in the wall gym I’ve been to so far. You get to it through an underground parking garage. If I hadn’t asked for directions, I would probably still be standing there in utter confusion. But it was AWESOME!

PS: At the end of the week, I fly to Porto 🇵🇹 for KCD Porto, where I'll get to visit my very awesome cousin and her family, eat delicious Brazilian and Portuguese goodies, and reunite with @joshleecreates.bsky.social for our THIRD European conference to deliver our talk on OTel vendor neutrality. ✌️

@collcoll.bsky.social reached out to me on LinkedIn to see if I could have Amanda Brock on my podcast to promote State of Open Con in early 2024. I was swamped, but something told me that I needed to say yes. I'm so glad that I did! Catch Colleen's episode now!

#HugOps to the AWS SREs today. I may be "slightly inconvenienced" by today's outage, but the AWS SREs are straight up having a bad day. Remember that there are humans working VERY HARD behind the tech that we love and depend on.

@joshleecreates.bsky.social and I are on a roll with our talk tour - one talk 4 conferences! We first gave this talk at CND Austria and KCD Warsaw last week, and our next stop will be OSOD next week. The best part? It's an online conference, so NO EXCUSES! 😁

#KCDWarsaw2025 has exceeded all expectations! Great food, great company, great hospitality, and Warsaw is just amaaaazing! Thanks to everyone who came to see @joshleecreates.bsky.social and me speak today, and thanks for the great questions! 💜💜

Hello from Warsaw! Wowie, what a an amazing city!! I’m gearing up for #KCDWarsaw2025 TODAY with @joshleecreates.bsky.social as we talk about what #OpenTelemetry vendor neutrality means. If you’re around, hope to see to there!!

I met @mauilion.dev earlier this year when I attended my first SCaLE 22x. He is every bit as chill as he appears, and lucky me, I got to have him on my podcast. Plus he smuggled me a silicone Pi brownie dish to Cloud Native Rejekts. 😁

I met @therubyrep.bsky.social when she worked on the On-Call Me Maybe podcast. I have such an appreciation of all the work that she did for us behind the scenes, & I’m excited to have her in front of the mic in this week’s episode of @geekingoutpod.bsky.social.

OMG Emily Chen and I pulled off a half virtual (with Emily in Paris - no joke)/half in-person talk at the cTENcf Toronto meetup in which we talked about our adventures with Block’s Codename Goose. Thanks to everyone who attended, and thanks for putting up with my Star Trek references! 🤣🤣

Interviewed @scott.hanselman.com on @geekingoutpod.bsky.social today, and geek out we did! Can’t wait for this episode to drop!

Happy Friday! Enjoy this fun GIF I made for an upcoming talk with @joshleecreates.bsky.social. Bonus points of you can name the characters. Yes, they all belong to me (except the MLP - borrowed that one from my kiddo).

I've been having fun working with @joshleecreates.bsky.social on our KCD Warsaw talk, which includes coming up with fun graphics. Here's one we came up with yesterday.

If you're Canadian, you'll get this take on the "No Name" brand using #OTel. If you're not, look up "No Name brand". It's a hoot.

Staying active and fit your 40s is punishable by various body parts deciding to hurt at any given time for no good reason. 🫠
