Nice overview of Gulp to script repetitive tasks. Clear demonstration of the streaming concept. Did not need to get so in depth about how to install the tools and modules.

Very interesting subject. Main revelation: using Fleet to respawn your applications even when the host machine dies.

Open and honest discussion of his personal journey. A couple of key takeways:
* develop your own self-awareness, can't plan without it
* success == overcoming failures between victories

Thanks Illia, as good as always.

Thanks Fred for that presentation.

A nice hybrid way of estimating our work.

Looking forward for the development of this approach.

Very interesting. Nice job Andrea in bringing this complicated topic to the audience.

Inspiring, personal and a unique subject.

Thanks Jason for the nice talk.

Great talk - very open about flaws and mistakes made and the process used to resolve them - and that it wasn't an easy move. Very relevant to those making quick technology decisions.

I had a lot of expectations for this talk, unfortunately they weren't met. I left the talk feeling talked down to by a person that has no grounding in technology, just grounding in the HR/admin side of things. The example she hoped to use of getting people to explain their jobs, hoping they would be unable to do so without using jargon failed because most people can articulate their work to non-technical people. It didn't answer the question of how to handle situations where you give a high level overview (which was all that was suggested) and people ask for more - how to give that without confusing them - that's the hard part. I can explain at a very high level a technology and what it can be used for, but when asked why it can't do something, it is very hard to explain - this is where the breakdown usually occurs.

Very enthusiastic and tried to engage the audience, however needs some work on the delivery and not arguing with audience members.
