A festive good morning to all of my followers on #Bluesky and everyone in tech 🎅😃

On a cheerful note, I have to say, I am very grateful for 2025, I still very alive and doing plenty of #Linux

Not posting as much on social media as I might, AI & other projects take a lot of my time and mind!

Two wise men standing by a Xmas tree.

An marvellous event from the @golang.org and @rust-lang.org London community groups.

Thanks to Ernest and Fergus. 😀👍

Glad to be back "slán abhaile", Brian.
#AWS re:Invent was HUGE, seemed like the Dawn of AI.

Today's #BirdOfTheDay theme is from @alan678.bsky.social, ands is #AlansNemesis, the #kingfisher.

Aww, I was hoping the more artsy thumbs would win. At least with the initial video audience, it looks like me in the thumbnail helps.

Just sitting here in a slightly brighter London with a cup of Irish tea, and admiring the perspicacity of @billylinehan.bsky.social in Las Vegas with #AWS 😀

Well done!

The view from Yad Vashem, Jerusalem. Overlooking pine tree .

It was a magnificent antidote to London, the weather was excellent 20 to 24°. Incredibly safe in Jerusalem, a very good vibe.

Excellent for walking around and a bit of exercise.

A surprise an amount of greenery.

Good #MondayMorning :)

Another AWS re:Invent 2025 Is in the Books In this post I share my experience attending the AWS re:Invent 2025 Conference in person.

I just shared my reflections from re:Invent 2025. Big themes this year: agentic AI, Rust performance wins, Arm everywhere, DSQL, and ABAC. It's always a great week of learning. chrisebert.net/another-aws-...

It's so good to sleep in one's own bed.

I've realised that BlueSky is like original Twitter... But with more intelligent sarcasm. I am totally here for that.

well written postmortem report from posthog on their Shai-Hulud malware incident:

A tea mug with Jerusalem on it, next to a black Amazon mouse in front of a black keyboard and various bits of clutter on the desk behind it.

Good morning from a mild London

Just enjoying a rather decent Irish tea out of my new favourite #Jerusalem mug.

A shrine within the church of the holy sepulchre in the old city of Jerusalem.

Well Mike, sightseeing mostly, enjoying the weather in Jerusalem, fascinating place, immensely courteous people and oodles of history (just up my street!) 😁
