Phew. And I’m just finished reading rather than attending! Enjoyed all your insights - but particularly those on resilience techniques & scheduling/orchestration preferences observed. Amazing write up, Glenn!

Cool! … I think there are still quite a few places where we all wish the wheels would have fallen off by now, but they haven’t… ! 🤷

Looks great! Cool that you can use breakpoints! Helpful to see you step through it all :-)

I hope we can improve our community collaborations amongst these topics in future. I guess it’s finding right people at the right time to pitch in. It’s nice to see & learn from others’ collaborations! Plus, cool cards :-)

Congratulations Vanessa and team! It’s nice to see this work! Nobody from #azure wanted to join the party…? *sniff*

Who knows what they’re doing in there! *cut to people quietly working on their computers*

I guess we’re not all here at the same time! There are two big offices beside each other (photo of the biggest), but also the DCs and smaller acquisitions (Havok, Activision/Demonware, Nuance, LinkedIn?) possibly included in that number. Wish we had SFO weather & cool factor!

Hmm. But maybe not cooler… A screenshot or workflow demo doesn’t really compare with gorey photos of physical CPUs and Chassis and flashing lights and cables!

Glenn, this is an awesome post. I love the detail & categories & takes. If I was to wish for something even more... it would be for the same from someone else focusing on (1) software & ops, and (2) science impact. We need more Glenns. We could mass produce & sell by the thousand, etc.
