As a Symfony user was great to hear about something coming in a version nearby. Perhaps as this was a general PHP conference some non-symfony examples might have been a good idea?

Great to have the social at the venue - more people are more likely to be involved. Shame all the speakers vanished, would have been nice to have been able to chat with them.

Nice intro to DDD in a really pragmatic way! Well presented, nice humour, great audience interaction.

Some nice concepts but i was hoping for something a bit more from an intermediate-level session.

Excellent presentation and really funny talk. I enjoyed myself and left with good spirits and inspired.

Only downside to this talk is the focus on "work hard and be successful and you will be happy" theme.
While the first 2 go hand in hand, the happy part does not require the first 2.
I'm sure the speaker thinks that as well, but people that have a difficult time might not receive the message all to well.

It might be adjusted to: "do stuff you like, do it often and get good at it" (especially the vlog bit is good for this).

Good clear information presented in a nice manner.

I would suggest giving some more suggestions on how to interpret/use top (and other tools) "in real life". How to switch to some relevant views and what certain numbers *might* be telling you.
It might have been said, but some examples using some screenshots to make it a bit more concrete would help.

Good informative talk with a lot of good suggestions. Should help that just start using exceptions a lot, but also devs that build libraries/packages.

Suggestion: add a "forSlug" create exception method to show what different named constructors might be useful.

Speaker was a bit hard to follow due to way of speaking. Doing more talks will probably improve this. Don't stop giving talks.

Examples given made it more difficult to understand. Didn't help the distances weren't realistic. Pick some known locations in the centre of amsterdam: "centraal station", "rijksmuseum", "wallen" (could be a joke in there).

Try adding some information on how the examples can be converted to behat and used to actually run tests.

Topic is a bit hard to talk, as everyone would want to do it, but it takes a lot of effort initially and everybody needs to be on board.

Nice talk, best explanation of the difference between command, message and query bus I've seen so far.

could use a bit more information about:
- how to make it asynchronous (even for querybus; or just say: "don't do that with querybus")
- how it relates to the symfony event dispatcher; which would you choose when.

Excellent way of showing how docker works under the hood.
Even though there were some bits that could be improved on the slides, but speaker mentioned that himself during the talk, and I'm sure its fixed for the next talk.
