Loving reading amazon.com/Dynamic-Reteaming… by @heidihelfand . Packed to the brim with good advice. Relevant because I am pushing for a restructuring of data teams at work to make them more cross-functional (right now, data engineering is separated from Analytics).

1) Let's talk about the State of Chinese Cloud. It's a nascent but very interesting market. All our favourite players are there, Alibaba, Huawei, Tencent and JD. AWS is still lurking around the corner hoping to get in. But who will come out on top?

I was 26 when I started teaching myself Python on an amphibious assault ship, from a single book with no internet. It’s not too late!
Folks on my TikTok asking questions like “is 27 too old to learn to code?” NO. UNLESS YOU ARE ACTIVELY BEING EMBALMED YOU CAN LEARN TO CODE

Wow. This is great (although all spots are filled and there is now a waiting list). DDD and data mesh are principles that more CTOs and tech leadership should start caring about if they want to build data systems of the future and improve ROI on data.
I’ll be running an 8 hour deep dive into all aspects of data mesh on Feb 1-2, online. From data strategists, data stewards to engineers, all are welcome. Looking forward to meeting you there. training.dddeurope.com/data-…
