Year: 2018

@LarryLarmeu @krishnan @sallamar We’ll see about that. Everything changes. Especially when generations change.

@4everfusiongal I don’t cope well with witnessing the same failing process over and over and not calling it out.

New rule: for every “yes” you say, you must also say 10 “no”.

@sallamar There are not “strategies”. There’s one strategy. Apparently always the wrong one, given the rate of failures I kept hearing in my career so far.

We have to ask “why” and say “no” more often.

@4everfusiongal All sort. How you onboard workloads in cloud environments, how you act on performance issues, how you embrace new technology trends, and so on and on. I don’t have the space to be specific but I could be painfully specific as I keep hearing the same mistakes over and over.

@sallamar Too few customers challenge the assumptions made by vendors, analysts, peers. In years of endless customer meetings, I heard the question “why” a handful of times. A handful.

Somebody comes up with a strategy and nobody questions it. Everybody follows it, and everybody fail.

Oh so many assumptions supported by so little data

Today’s most valuable assets of any corporation out there are: data and people.

Technology is there as a gateway between the two. Fail at remaining the most capable or reliable or efficient or cost effective gateway, and you get replaced.

Technology gets always replaced.

You look at slide decks with strategy plans and architectural diagrams about digital transformation, cloud computing, security, AI, big data…they all look identical. Both the vendor ones and the customer ones.
And then everybody does same mistakes and fail. This model is broken

What @algorithmia is doing is truly remarkable: reducing friction in using #AI to zero. How? By bringing AI where the data already is and customers are familiar accessing it: the spreadsheet > Google Sheets + AI.
