Handling a remote team is not the easiest task. They have fewer opportunities to socialize and they don’t have a way to get to know new members. Such remoteness in work can lead to feelings of disconnection and isolation.
That is why your business needs virtual team building activities. It will allow the workers to get to know each other and feel more connected. They will drive a sense of belonging and community that everyone needs.
Here are our top choices for creative virtual team building activities.
People love trivia. Jeopardy is a big example of how much people love taking part in trivia contests. So, you can create such a contest for your virtual team as well.
You can decide:
If you want a platform for automated weekly trivia quizzes for your remote team, then you can opt for Water Cooler Trivia. It is a platform that will automate the entire process to make things seamless. It is one Continue reading
URLs are ugly. They are hard to read, difficult to memorise and often auto-generated for the benefit of the origin server - not the user.
Today we are announcing the immediate availability of Transform Rules for all Cloudflare plans. Transform Rules provide Cloudflare administrators with the ability to create URL rewrite rules. These rules transform HTTP requests as they flow through Cloudflare providing an interpretation layer between the human friendly and the computer friendly.
Imagine you are going on a much needed around-the-world trip and want to buy a copy of John Graham-Cumming’s book The Geek Atlas: 128 Places Where Science and Technology Come Alive to use as inspiration. Would the link https://www.travelbooks247.com/dp/0596523203/ make sense to you? Chances are the answer is no. It's hard for humans to understand these complex, contextless URLs.
This is why companies instead provide user friendly alternatives such as: https://www.travelbooks247.com/Geek-Atlas-Places-Science-Technology/dp/0596523203/ and use web servers as the interpreter. This interpretation is known as URL rewriting.
Large ecommerce retailers take HTTP requests to these human-friendly URLs and rewrite them using a simple pattern that strips the content Geek-Atlas-Places-Science-Technology/ before sending the HTTP request to the backend. The human readable hyperlink Continue reading
I was listening to an excellent container networking podcast and enjoyed it thoroughly until the guest said something along the lines of:
With Kubernetes networking policy, you no longer have to be a networking expert to do container network security.
That’s not even wrong. You didn’t have to be a networking expert to write traffic filtering rules for ages.

Every day, hundreds of passionate Docker users around the world contribute to Docker. Whether you are just getting started or are an expert in your field, there are many ways to get involved and start contributing to Docker. If you’re into technical writing, you can easily publish and/or edit articles in docs.docker.com. If you’re more into code contribution, there are dozens of open source Docker projects you can dive into. Or if you’re just interested in sharing knowledge and spreading Docker goodness, you can organize a local meetup or a virtual workshop on our community events page.
There are literally countless ways one can contribute to Docker. This makes it sometimes a bit difficult to find the right project or activity that maps to your interests and level of Docker expertise. That’s why we’ve been working to make it easier for anyone to learn more about ways to contribute and find the right project or activity. To this end, we created a community-driven website that aims to make it easier than ever to navigate the many different contribution opportunities that exist at Docker, and ultimately, to find the right contribution pathway to get started.
I’m excited to announce that on March 1, I joined Cloudflare as Vice President and GM, Asia Pacific (including Japan and Greater China) to help build and expand Cloudflare’s growing customer and partner base and presence in the region. We currently have over 200 passionate and customer-focused employees in APAC, with offices in Beijing, Singapore, Sydney and Tokyo.
Singapore is where I’m based. Melbourne is home with my early years spent in Country Victoria. I love the outdoors, sports, travelling and spending time with family and friends. I am naturally intrigued by interesting people and different perspectives. I have a thirst for learning and understanding why people act and behave the way they do, and believe that understanding more about different cultures makes me a better person/leader. And what better way to do so than by being in the most diverse region in the world — Asia Pacific is home to 60% of the world’s population, with thousands of languages spoken, spanning multiple time zones. With the rise of innovation and technology adoption in the region, growth and expansion opportunities are endless.
Throughout my 20-year career, I have been extremely fortunate to Continue reading
Hello my friend,
Some time ago in LinkedIn we announced that we are working on the tool, which will allows you to model and analyse your network. As one of our primary focuses is data centres, we started from there. Despite it is an early stages, but we are happy and proud to introduce you HAWK: Highly-efficient Automated Weapon Kit. For now, this is a collection of the tools for the network management and analysis, but probably later we will put it under a joint hoot of some front-end, who knows…

In order to automate any network operation, you need to write a script, even if that is a simple one. On the other hand, any script is a program or software. This means that the creating of the scripts for the network automation is a form of the software development. And it is fun. Continue reading
