And most of these orgs are not even taking advantage of the internal resiliency options within the specific cloud that they are in (multi-az/region). "Vendor lock" and "what if Amazon/Microsoft/Google goes down" are arguments that drive me crazy. There are not a lot of workloads that are so mission critical that they truly need to be multi-cloud. It sounds great in theory, but like y'all said, it is just a waste of money more often than not.

When the initial news of the 5 days a week of RTO came out, I messaged some of my friends that were still there. A couple of them were literally turning in their notices that day. They all found out about the 5 day requirement through the news feeds. There were no internal announcements.

He was listed as questionable coming into the game from when he got tweaked last week.

We stayed at the Westin Bayshore. Great location just outside Stanley Park and most of downtown is walkable.

I love her snarkiness, so I had her in and out of my party during my first play through. I had pulled her in via the non-Tiefling massacre option.

When they say dress warmly, do so. Temp itself wasn’t bad but the wind was blowing solid on the trip out. There were a lot of folks on our boat that didn’t listen and were in shorts and tshirts. Also they do take pics of everything you see and post them later that evening for you to download, so if you are a crappy photographer like I am, don’t sweat it.

Just finishing up a whale watching trip with Price of Whales here now. Great trip with orca and humpback whale sightings. Captain even kept us out later as the humpbacks were super active.

Just finished my first run through this weekend. My Tav was a Teifling Paladin, and I ran with Shadowheart, Karlach, and Gale for most of the Acts. I ended up switching Gale with Minthara for the final battle sequences. I'm planning on trying a Dark Urge run through with a cleric as my Tav, using Lae'zel, Wyll, and Astarion to just see their reactions and how it goes. Although, I'm a Minthara fan, so I might end up switching one out for her once I get her to join, assuming the Dark Urge stuff doesn't mess that up. I know there are some forced interactions, but I've tried to limit the spoilers for them.

I do some side consulting, but nothing that is taking a ton of time. I always do it above board, reporting it to my current employer through their systems. It has never been an issue as long as you are watching out for conflicts of interest.

He is planning on going pro.

I was with AWS up until a few months ago (ProServe consultant), and I am 100% on board with the idea that Amazon is jacking around folks to help fire in place folks. Morale on most teams was bleak. They have been forcing folks to come back into the office, even if they are on fully remote teams. They are not providing any relocation for folks that they are forcing to move to be near offices.
