(not a direct quote, that was what I wrote down!). \u00c2\u00a0Given my\u00c2\u00a0intensive work on the <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.dtc.ninja\/wp\/2018\/01\/27\/meltdown-spectre\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Meltdown and Spectre vulnerabilities<\/a>, this was an interesting observations\u00c2\u00a0to me.<\/p>\n<p>The other presentation that really interested me was the\u00c2\u00a0topic of the future of the \u00c2\u00a0System Engineer, and how these professional roles are evolving, and need to evolve, to match not just current, but also predicted trends in technology and delivery. \u00c2\u00a0Again, a topic very close to my heart, and one I should really blog about soon \ud83d\ude42 #noteToSelf<\/p>\n<h1>More Sessions<\/h1>\n<p>The afternoon then continued with sessions on security, and also on Cisco&#8217;s UCS platform, one of the key areas of interest for me coming to Cisco Live!<\/p>\n<h1>Catching Up<\/h1>\n<p>In the evening, I again joined Alan and Edvard from Cisco for dinner along with a number of my IBM colleagues. \u00c2\u00a0What I love about IBM is that despite the VAST number of people in our organisation,\u00c2\u00a0the world really is very small &#8211;
