[1099.30 --> 1100.48] At a minimum, swing by.
[1100.64 --> 1102.32] If you're at KubeCon, swing by and see.
[1102.32 --> 1102.50] Yeah.
[1102.88 --> 1103.46] That as well.
[1103.54 --> 1104.00] That as well.
[1104.08 --> 1104.18] Yeah.
[1104.22 --> 1105.70] I wish I could swing by, but I can't.
[1105.78 --> 1106.14] Next one.
[1106.20 --> 1106.48] Next one.
[1106.48 --> 1109.40] If you come to Europe, because that's what the next one will be.
[1109.98 --> 1115.60] So anyways, for the people that can't attend KubeCon, like myself, and they will be catching
[1115.60 --> 1116.52] up on videos.
[1116.88 --> 1118.38] Any advice that you have for those people?
[1118.60 --> 1122.58] How can they make the most out of it, even though they can't be there in person?
[1122.58 --> 1125.14] And some of them are just catching up on the videos.
[1125.14 --> 1125.90] What can they do?
[1126.12 --> 1126.38] Yeah.
[1126.60 --> 1128.84] So, you know, I don't know if I have great advice.
[1128.96 --> 1131.90] My relationship with virtual conferences is not a great one.
[1132.28 --> 1134.96] It's just a different experience.
[1135.04 --> 1135.32] I don't know.
[1135.44 --> 1140.26] I think like many of us, I sit in front of a screen all day and, you know, it's really
[1140.26 --> 1143.36] hard to want to keep doing that in any other form.
[1143.44 --> 1147.86] But I will say we have a buoyant virtual booth and we've tried to make that as fun and as
[1147.86 --> 1148.86] interesting as possible.
[1149.00 --> 1152.70] I'll be hanging out there, you know, even though I'm in person at the event, I'll also be spending
[1152.70 --> 1153.82] time on the virtual booth.
[1153.82 --> 1157.42] We've got the run book and like a bunch of other Linkerd-y stuff.
[1157.52 --> 1161.44] We've got an opportunity for you to get, I think we're raffling off Linkerd-y swag.
[1161.62 --> 1165.22] So if you visit us, you know, you've got a chance and we'll actually ship you a hat and
[1165.22 --> 1166.62] some shirts and stuff.
[1167.14 --> 1170.62] So I don't know about the rest of the conference, but I think the Linkerd-y booth at least will
[1170.62 --> 1171.06] be interesting.
[1171.30 --> 1171.46] Okay.
[1171.78 --> 1173.40] Did you have time to check the talk schedule?
[1173.58 --> 1174.36] Anything interesting?
[1174.74 --> 1176.14] Any talks that you're looking forward to?
[1176.30 --> 1179.28] Well, now I'm going to seem like a bad person because I only look at the Linkerd-y talks.
[1179.98 --> 1180.56] That's okay.
[1180.74 --> 1181.28] That's fine.
[1181.36 --> 1182.14] That's perfectly fine.
[1182.54 --> 1182.90] Yeah.
[1182.90 --> 1183.96] We have one.
[1183.98 --> 1185.08] My kids are also the best.
[1185.20 --> 1185.74] You know what I mean?
[1186.50 --> 1190.64] So there are two talks at KubeCon that I am particularly excited about.
[1190.96 --> 1195.08] Actually, one of them is going to be at Service MeshCon, which is a day zero event, which I
[1195.08 --> 1197.76] have mixed feelings about as a conference.
[1197.76 --> 1202.74] But there is a really cool talk there from the folks at Elkjof, which is the largest retailer
[1202.74 --> 1207.48] in the Nordics about how, you know, and it's like a multi-billion dollar business that everyone,
[1207.94 --> 1212.12] you know, in that region knows about, about how they use Linkerd-y and Kubernetes to like
[1212.12 --> 1214.04] replatform their entire company.
[1214.26 --> 1215.14] So that one's really cool.
[1215.26 --> 1219.96] That's Frederick, who is also a Linkerd-y ambassador and is like heavily involved in the project.
[1219.96 --> 1222.96] So it's really awesome to see him be able to talk about what he did with it.
[1222.96 --> 1226.58] And then the other one that I'm really excited about is from, I guess, the other part of
[1226.58 --> 1231.68] the world, which is the folks from Intain Australia have this amazing story where they
[1231.68 --> 1235.90] basically 10x their throughput using Linkerd-y of like their entire system.
[1235.98 --> 1239.16] They have a really big deployment through a combination of load balancing and some other
[1239.16 --> 1239.36] stuff.
[1239.42 --> 1241.16] So we're going to talk about that at KubeCon proper.
[1241.24 --> 1241.90] I think that's on Friday.
[1241.90 --> 1245.24] So those two things I'm really excited about because I've been talking to these people
[1245.24 --> 1247.14] for a long, both of them for a long time.
[1247.72 --> 1250.24] And yeah, I'm just really excited to get their story out there.
[1250.40 --> 1251.82] They're both really exciting stories.
[1252.20 --> 1252.24] Okay.
[1252.44 --> 1254.28] I will make sure to check them out as well.
[1254.68 --> 1257.82] I'll put them in the show notes for people to check them out if they'll be available,
[1257.82 --> 1258.48] but that's great.
[1258.58 --> 1259.50] Thank you for sharing that.
[1259.92 --> 1264.80] When it comes to the people that you're most looking forward to meeting, anyone in particular
[1264.80 --> 1265.78] that you want to shout out?
[1266.00 --> 1266.66] Oh boy.
[1267.66 --> 1271.34] I actually am meeting a ton of people there, but is there anyone I want to shout out?
[1271.34 --> 1272.20] No, I don't think so.
[1273.38 --> 1273.88] That's good.
[1273.98 --> 1274.44] It's too many.
[1274.78 --> 1278.18] Let's pretend it's so many, like no particular name comes to your mind.
[1278.24 --> 1278.66] That's okay.
[1278.86 --> 1279.54] That works too.
[1279.72 --> 1283.30] You know, one thing that's weird is I'm going to be meeting people who have worked on Linkerd
[1283.30 --> 1285.22] for a long time who I've never actually met in person.
[1285.58 --> 1286.24] That part's exciting.
[1286.24 --> 1290.30] I'm going to be meeting people who work at Boynt who I've never actually met in person.
[1290.98 --> 1293.52] You know, even though I'm the CEO, like I've never actually met them in person.
[1293.60 --> 1294.94] So we're going to meet for the first time at KubeCon.
[1295.30 --> 1297.74] I mean, that's just a sign of the crazy times we live in.
[1298.18 --> 1301.22] Well, I hope everybody shows up and everybody will be just as excited
[1301.22 --> 1303.66] as you to meet them and happy afterwards.
[1303.90 --> 1304.94] Like they'll want to do it again.
[1305.14 --> 1306.76] Everyone will be smiling behind their masks.
[1307.74 --> 1308.06] Exactly.
[1308.26 --> 1308.44] Yeah.
[1308.46 --> 1309.20] You can't see it.
[1309.40 --> 1311.62] So yeah, if they're frowning, well, actually if they're frowning, you can see.
[1311.70 --> 1315.52] But anyways, anyways, anything interesting happening in the next six months
[1315.52 --> 1317.34] for Linkerd that you want to share?
[1317.60 --> 1318.36] Anything coming up?
[1318.54 --> 1319.12] Whoa, boy.
