Great advanced level Git presentation. Good examples for bisect and filter-branch. Ben is a fun speaker and wasted no time getting into it, which is what I want out of a highly technical talk.
de bonnes idées pour rentre les rétro plus amusante.
Présentatrice semblait stressé, parlait un peu trop vite et semblait sauter des étapes.
Good talk, well presented, clear examples. Perhaps dwells on the (admittedly excellent) list features a little too long. I also wouldn't mind seeing more examples with the object model, decorators, etc.
Light hearted and funny presentation around basic refactoring skills. Behind the simple example, a lot of important refactoring principles are touched upon. Katrina is an engaging speaker, was super well prepared and kept the audience interested.
Sandy's talk was informative and upbeat. It's hard to talk about OOD without sounding dry and cliche. Kudos to Sandi for providing great content and a great delivery. I agree, the pre-talk convo was relevant and genuine.
Speaker had to cover a lot of ground to make the talk useful beyond the basics and I think he succeeded. It is an introductory presentation but it is not for beginners. Using slides made it possible to cover a lot of ground without a hitch, but a live demonstration might have helped cause more a-ha! moments for the audience. All in all, great job!
Didn't understand the point of this talk.
Seemed to be more about presenting different models. Should have focused more on actual team collaboration to produce a common vision for feature development.
Great info, practical, well done. Bonus points for the handling of sometimes pointed audience questions. Would have loved to see more content; also the final API seems good but doesn't seem like something that could be easily implemented. While that's not the point of the talk, I'm not sure about the example itself. Still, excellent talk.
