Talk comments
Even if I did appreciated the talk I think there's room for improvement for this one.
I felt a bit of overlapping with your first session in the morning and I'm not sure if I got the scope of this one correctly. I thought we would go deeper with the behavioural aspect, like what users do on your site, I mean their real-time activity/navigation, in addition to what contents they're reading or sharing/manipulating (and so here you can extract terms, weights and whatever is interesting throughout documents).
I think I'd have preferred not see that much of code (although if it was fairly quick) and hear more of your great ideas: it's always a pleasure!
Finally, that was the last one of three days of conference and my head was certainly a bit tired translating so I apologize if it was clearer than I think... ;)
Probably one of the most interesting talks, which made us think a bit out of the box. Definitely, it kick-started my day... :)
Many thanks for your time, ideas, and I'm hoping we'll see you again next year in Montréal!
Perfect example for a one-hour talk, with nice bits of maths... :)
Great talk. I’m a front-end dev within a Ruby team so the hints about gems and how to configure specs in Rails were really helpful. Definitely inspired me to start testing my code.
Clearer and more interesting than Jordi :)
Good presentation. Good pace.
I found this presentation too informal: I could have went to php.net and read about it and it would have done the same thing. However, since I didn't do it (haha..) it was great.
Perhaps like mentioned above, remove iteratorIterator section and show more concrete usage examples.
Very good presentation. Although my conclusion (and my friends' conclusion) was : Use MySQL ! :).
Very informative, good presentation pace, highly recommend this speaker.
I was disappointed by this presentation. All I wrote down was : encrypt sessions, encrypt passwords, don't display PHP default error message to avoid revealing full directory structure of the application, have everyone code the same way (for validations)...
To me that was too general, lack of real life examples, and the first half of the presentation could be revisited to "compress it" (people already know why security is important) and focus more on securing PHP application.
I liked the section about avoiding to use md5, sha1 though..
cowsay Great!
