My @IBM-inspired Halloween costume this year is as a 'Hybrid #Multicloud Architecture Powered by Containers and @RedHat'. (Seriously!) The neighborhood kids are going to be *incredibly* confused.
ALT "Public cloud": Lots of graffitied names, kind of like what you might find in a public bathroom stall. Surrounded by multiple cloud provider logos (ie. #multicloud).
ALT "Private cloud": A bank vault in the background surrounded by a fence, barbed wire and a 'no trespassing' sign (ie. private).
ALT The clouds and on-prem data center are connected together to a power bar sitting on a set of Tupperware containers, and topped with a Red Hat logo (ie. "powered by containers and Red Hat")

When I was in school, the job role of #DataScientist really didn't exist. Now, #data and #AI are so prevalent that it's referenced casually in children's television shows (like Ghostwriter on Apple TV ). Amazing how far the industry has evolved! #ilovemywork

After 11 weeks of learning, I received my 'AI Foundations for Everyone Specialization' professional certificate through @Coursera. In particular, the course on building an intelligent #chatbot using #WatsonAssistant is exceptional, and essential for anyone interested in #ai.

Here's a very cool video showing how to memorize the first 100 digits of pi in a day. It uses the Major System, which is used by most Memory Competition competitors. This can be extended to any other numerical memorization: phone #, IDs, credit cards, etc. bit.ly/2uunhjr

Hey @WWE @TicketmasterCA @ScotiabankArena, how is it possible that within 5 seconds of #SummerSlam tickets going on sale, there are ZERO tix available on the N or S floor? Something sketchy going on here...

I'm glad to hear that the Canada has grounded all #Boeing737Max8 aircraft, while more investigation is ongoing. I've personally been on two of those in just the last month.

30 yrs ago, a self-taught computer scientist proposed using hypertext links to solve info storage issues. Today, we're using that tech to thank Tim Berners-Lee and celebrate the 30th birthday of the World Wide Web! Here's the flow chart that became the internet (from W3C)! #Web30

This pledge doesn't just expire when #InternationalWomensDay19 ends. It persists, and that's my #BeEqual pledge. ibm.co/2NJmDah

In time for #InternationalWomensDay the IBM Institute for Business Value (@IBMIBV) has released a study on why so few orgs have come close to achieving gender equality in leadership, despite the small handful tangibly outperforming in the market. ibm.biz/Bd2QgB

Today, @IBM debuted Summit, the world's most powerful #supercomputer. It's capable of 200 petaflops (ie. 200 quadrillion mathematical calculations each second)! More info here: cnet.co/2HyK7Kx

Ran 10km this morning in support of @TheHSF (Heart and Stroke Foundation)! The skyline views were amazing and it was very fun to run on the Gardiner Expressway highway! #rideforheart

When attending an Anime convention and want to dress classy, there are apparently options. Like a Pac-Man suit. #animeNorth2018 #AN2018

The demos of @Google Duplex's #ArtificialIntelligence assistant are VERY impressive. Reminds me of how I felt when @Apple unveiled the original iPhone. However, challenges await - preventing unrequested calls, misinterpretation errors, SECURITY!!! (bit.ly/2I43Ym8)
