  1. @westleyl @Ben_Hall seemed to, yhanks
  2. there's only one thing worse than having a session that competes with @markrendle... having one that follows him... #prognet
  3. @RachelHawley Thanks Rach, can't pretend I'm not a little nervous :-\
  4. @NathanGloyn Here's hoping! In other news, there'll be no butt rape in my session today #AllOfUsAreSmarterThanOneOfUs
  5. @gep13 Thanks Gary, me too, never done a 3.5 hour session before, not sure I can inject energy into a room for that long :-\
  6. OH at #prognet "... one last stop of IIS"
  7. I totally just taught @Ben_Hall something about web dev, and it wasn't even that it sucks balls. #winning #prognet
  8. @youeee Nothing, we'll cover that at the start, everything can be installed pretty much in real time. #prognet
  9. @skillsmatter "Gee, isn't it cool that members of my replication set keep falling over mid demo and keep selecting new primaries" @Ben_Hall

  11. Right, shower then #prognet
  12. @Plip @kendallmiller fate of the world in my hands and old that.
  13. @kendallmiller thanks
  14. Right, 3.5 hour session to give at #prognet tomorrow, so I should do that sleeping thing...
  15. @improvedk Wow, that's a lotta lotta slides :-)
  16. Slides are done. I've never delivered a session with 70 slides in it before, my mum will be proud, the audience... not so much ;-) #prognet
  17. @NathanGloyn That's like saying "Fuck off" is analogous to "go away" :-) But I take your point, I've expressed myself more appropriately ;-)
  18. People have asked for context (like it matters) so..."The Browser Cache is your friend, it will also butt rape you when you are not looking"
  19. oooooohkaaaaaay, judging by the response, I guess I'm up too late at night writing this deck. Thanks for the good advice Interwebs... :-)
  20. Quick strawpoll, can you use the phrase "butt rape" in a presentation?
