Talk comments
I seem to work a lot with legacy projects and bringing them up to date (or as close as they can be). This was actually one of my favourite talks, the audience was completely hooked throughout the talk.
Great slides and fantastic presentation style. One of the more polished talks that were given and certainly one of the most impressive.
My colleague and I were lucky enough to see Kirk talk at Laravel London a few months back on this very subject. The talk has been updated post that point (for the better) and I thought he delivered a good talk.
Although Taylor had announced changed for form validation, I think this talk highlighted a good approach to validation for other use cases.
Fantastic talk, with a lot of laughs along the way.
I've been convinced to switch over to Ansible from Puppet like a few others have noted here.
Fun to listen to, engaging personality and great slides. Even a sneak peak at Erika's downloads folder too!
As usual, a very engaging talk from Ben. I've used ElasticSearch in a few projects and love it. Ben made a very good point about Java during the talk where there still seems to be a stigma towards using java based applications - can't for the life of me understand why now-a-days when they've come a long, long way.
As I said previously, it was a engaging talk, funny, accurate, great code examples and a good subject choice.
Great talk (as is usually the case from what I've been told) by Rafael.
I agree, it seemed as though some of the crowd were a little lost in the code examples, however the same thing happened during other talks too.
Dries makes this point:
"Your talk was incredible. I've never been to a conference or meetup talk where the crowd was listening with such silence and attention as this one. It takes a lot of courage and self-confidence to address the points in your talk."
The fact that during Kayla's talk was the only time during the three days that #laraconeu was dead speaks volumes. Both myself and the audience were captivated.
The Morgan Freeman of PHP.
Simply superb. Enough said.
You're talk has made me realize more where I go wrong. Also will be giving this to a colleague or two :D
Always a good thing to listen to Taylor talk.
As always, honest answers and insight into how he sees the framework developing.
