Could not get the point, the correlation between the evolution of figurative arts and programming seemed a little forced to me (with the same criteria you can draw a relation between history of Italian cuisine and programming, or zen archery and programming), but probably my fault. The last concept, the science of non-scientific things (sorry, didn't remember the name) was very odd, too, but indeed the talk was well presented and funny.
A very funny stream of consciousness about the concept of changing, maybe with a little too nihilistic and pessimistic point of view ("nothing is new and nothing will ever work, just accept it"), but, if not taken seriously, can make you laugh a lot.
case studies are of incredible values for practitioners. thanks for sharing one documenting how to make business, developers and ux designers interact succesfully together to build a complex new product.
Contenuto molto interessante ma forse non ottimo come talk iniziale
nice and entertaining talk on how to effectively apply scrum to a non software development situation.
The rhythm was probably too slow, but it was worth the journey leading to an easy answer: yes :)
Pierluigi's workshops are very inspiring, from different point of views, starting from the theory, which is well presented through the exercises, and finishing to his way to present and interact, which is a practical example of what is explained. And, of course, it was very funny!
If you can keep up Alberto's trail of ideas and concepts, it's an amazing talk!
Interesting and useful concepts, but nothing really catchy. Missing the point of Agile methodologies as a way to counteract the effects of cognitive bias, probably worth a better in-dept analysis, but the talk was very clear and well presented.
