Normally there are AWS SDK commits every day. There have been none this week. There are 3 main dead weeks at AWS as told by their SDK commits: - Week 5 (this week): Annual review period I'm told - Week 15: Aligns with April 15 when taxes are due - Week 52: Christmas/New Years

Every Super Bowl I see more people chastising imaginary nerd tweeters about being jerks about “sportsball” than I see actual jerks being jerky about liking sportsball. Not saying people ain’t being jerks; *am* saying I obviously curate my feed well.

PS: if you are a dude (especially one that recognizes me because of attending the same conference) and you get off at my floor, I am going to wait for you to head down the hallway first.
