Not long to go now until the AWS Community Summit! This year we're co-hosting a Serverlesspresso workshop with #AWS, where participants get to deploy a serverless backend that supports a pop-up coffee shop, with a barista present to make up the drinks. steamhaus.co.uk/insights/vis…

I've been on the media this morning so my accent and grammar are being critiqued. I wasn't Eton educated, but growing up in Stockport I was taught integrity, honesty and decency. Doesn't mater how you say it. Boris Johnson is unfit to lead.

If you need to bundle multiple files together for a download. I am begging you. Not rar. NOT RAR. How did you even do that? Your computer has built-in functionality for making and opening zips. It doesn’t have that for rar. What is wrong with you. It’s not 2003

Instead of making offenders wear high viz jackets in chain gangs, how about helping them get a real job instead? In my shops we employ lots of ex offenders and they wear a shirt and tie. Same people, different approach, a much better outcome.

"Unlimited time off" really means "limited time off but you have to guess the limit and if you get it wrong resentment will fester"

The English football team did the country proud. The country did not return the favour. The bunch of fat, beered-up racist thugs is who England has become under a @BorisJohnson and his bigoted government. Shame on #englandfans
. @spabreaks I'm having an absolute nightmare with a break at @MidlandMCR booked for a friend tomorrow.. Spa booked for after hotel checkout, unable to book a table. Can't get through to @MidlandMCR and your customer service isn't replying/answering my call. Please get in touch!
what the hell is going on with @altontowers? your phone lines aren't working, you're ignoring emails, twitter DMs and Facebook messages. Absolutely appalling customer service. Can you please reply to my DM?
Here's a little LinkedIn article I've written based on hiring during the pandemic and trying to transfer our office-based culture to remote-working: stmh.us/fZg8PB

Hi @beardsdaisies I’ve contacted you four times about some plants that haven’t survived being delivered, and I’m not getting any replies. I continue to get lots of marketing emails though. What’s going on? – at Manchester, England

There are no ITU beds in the valleys. So you might be 23 and invincible if you get COVID but what if you crash your car? Or a friend takes an overdose or a parent needs emergency surgery? Guess what! No beds for you either. And THAT’S how this affects everyone. Rant over.

I've just been on a Zoom meeting that was so boring, I assembled an Ikea filing cabinet while it was going on. I didn't even mute my microphone. Nobody gave a shit.

Is it just me that's had enough of 'in these unusual times', 'in these unprecedented times' and all other permutations? It seems to be a conversation opener from sales emails or people connecting on LinkedIn. ...Just realised It's the new 'do you want to meet for coffee?' 🙄
