Deciding which kind of practice you really need can remove a lot of friction when building a #FinOps practice https://matellis.com/which-finops-quadrant-are-you-in/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #cloud

The Cloud turned twenty last month and yet too many haven't evolved beyond traditional capex style thinking. It's time to shift our perspective. https://matellis.com/old-habits-die-hard/?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon #finops #cloud

If you're not impressed yet I'd like to meet you and find out why https://twitter.com/hey_madni/status/1803102324459704807?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=mastodon

Shipping docs overseas - $75 for 3-5 day delivery but actually took 9 days in the end. Some places wanted double. For an envelope. Why is overseas shipping so expensive and unreliable?

This pic sums up the current state of #iot: @samsung tv is meant to turn on when you approach; @philips hue bulb is meant to be at a lower brightness; @apple
HomeKit is meant to turn on two lamps at once. Huge companies crappy software are delaying the day iot becomes ubiquitous. https://t.co/7Em7sLHxeC

@British_Airways In fact, your reply neatly illustrates the problem. Nobody is taking responsibility for these issues, which continue to occur on a regular basis. Please spend less on twitter and more on logistics.

@British_Airways I find it fascinating there are resources available to say "that wasn't us" but none to fix your website, lean on the airport to do basic things, or even have *anything* to fill a customs declaration form in when several of your aircraft had nobody to unload the luggage.

@British_Airways There were no announcements. The monitors in the luggage hall were turned off. After an hour or two of waiting we kind of found the *two* BA employees handing out the forms, with no pens. The whole thing is a mess: the airport, the border controls and yourselves.

@British_Airways When there are many planes all with unloaded luggage, your people had the declaration forms but no pens. Your website was so broken, even logging in gave an error. The phone numbers were missing. When calling, all we got was a recording saying you couldn't take the call.
