718 What We Learned: TechCon and Helene
Manage episode 443285038 series 3297061
Uncle Marv kicks off the show by addressing the devastating impact of Hurricane Helene, particularly in the Western Carolina and Eastern Tennessee areas. The storm caused significant damage, with at least 162 deaths reported and 1.3 million customers still without power across several states.
The conversation then shifts to disaster recovery planning, with Jason and Justine sharing their thoughts on preparing for unexpected events. They discuss the importance of cloud-based solutions and the need for comprehensive disaster recovery strategies, even in areas not typically prone to certain types of natural disasters.
The podcast delves into the recent TechCon Unplugged conference, with both guests offering their insights and takeaways. They highlight the quality of content, the value of networking opportunities, and the unique atmosphere that sets TechCon apart from larger industry events. The discussion touches on topics such as hiring practices, process improvements, and the benefits of smaller, more intimate conferences.
Uncle Marv also announces his decision to join the National Society of IT Service Providers (NSITSP), an organization focused on transforming the IT industry into a recognized profession and establishing high standards and ethics for IT service providers.
The episode concludes with a lighthearted segment featuring "Florida Man" stories, including amusing anecdotes from Oklahoma and Florida, showcasing the quirky side of local news.
