When ChatGPT is getting cheeky when asked how much dirt is needed to fill in the space-that-once-was-trampoline.

Fully packed room for @JohnnyHooyberghs at Friday's @DotnetFriday meetup during his session on new features in .NET 9 and C# 13. Always such a pleasure listening to this man.

The holiday season 🎅 is almost upon us, and while this means spending extra quality time with family to most, for some it is getting out of bed at crazy hours to participate in the Advent of Code. 🎄 Join the 'To the root' -board here: buff.ly/4g2zG2H

Last Saturday, I dropped in on the Sinterklaas celebration at Sopra Steria on my way back from the airport. This year's story arc featured supervillains (you know who you are, Edwin) and plot twists. But seeing all those happy kids and your colleagues in a different setting was so nice. Great job!

Last lab proctoring at #Microsoft #Ignite. This room is packed considering it is the 9:00 am slot after the celebration party last night.

For the last week, this has been homebase at #Microsoft #Ignite. Met so many amazing people at the #Azure #AI search booth who shared so many interesting use cases and questions. Thank you all for sharing and keep building these amazing solutions. 🤩

Leave it up to Henk Boelman and Daniel Laskewitz to have a packed room for the last session of #Ignite. Can not think of a more fitting way to wrap up this Ignite.

Last Wednesday, I got to present my session 'Tokens 101: How to make sense of tokenization in #AI' at #Microsoft #Ignite in Chicago. That was such an amazing experience and definitely one to cross off the bucket list.
