Good and interesting talk. But I would also have seen just a few examples to illustrate some of the point behind the core idea's
Still, very good!
Very nice presentation! Very clear and to the point.
For us personally it didn't provide a lot of new information. But despite that the quality was very high and we still got a lot of good info out of it.
The presentation in itself was good and Edward explained everything quite clearly despite being obviously nervous. So perhaps I should've rated higher, but what I want to make clear is simply how important it is to know your target audience or to be prepared if the level of knowledge is very different from what you expected.
You asked two very important questions at the start:
- How many people here have used migrations
- How many people have used seeds
More than 90% of the audience raised their hands. And at that point I hoped you would've just skipped all the entry level stuff and headed to more advanced cases.
The title itself is probably the most important reason for feeling let down. It suggests that it was about the edge cases, where the migrations fail or where you want to do advanced migrations or anything other than migrations 101.
Awesome presentation!
As a developer and serveradmin myself, I had mixed feelings about chatops at first. But I clearly had the wrong idea. We are definitely going to try this out in the near future.
Nice presentation. Unfortunately due to the bad sound a lot of the humor was lost on most of the audience. Which was a shame.
I love the out-of-the-box thinking with the cartoons and we are planning to try it on a few future projects.
I really like the relaxed and down to earth way Taylor does his presentations.
It really feels just as if you're having a work presentation with a colleague who is showing the work he has done on your mutual project.
Also, the work that has been done.... You basicly fixed every issue we've had over the past year on our biggest project. things we've now all done by extending the base functionality of Laravel 5.1 are now all present by default and in a much nicer and easier way, as always.
I was expecting much more, there was pretty much nothing in the talk that I didn't already know which caused my attention to wane, and in the middle he lost me completely. The stakeholders perspectives could have been interesting but again, nothing new there. Since I am working on a customized CMS project I would have really liked some good ideas.
Very well structured talk and great insights. I agree for me it was a bit hard to follow at times because of the accent, an Italian colleague had less trouble.
Very good subject, good to get people thinking about accessibility being for everyone and not just a few people. Well presented, the only comment I have is that it was a bit repetitive at times. Just a tip, in my opinion, a 40 minute talk doesn't warrant recaps.
Nice and interesting talk!
It's nice to recognize all the problems I had with previous employers and see how it's far from unique and also to understand better what their side in that was. But it's even nicer to recognize how none of these situations exist where I've been working for the past few years.
My boss was sitting beside us and he agreed wholeheartedly with you as well. Of course it helps that he is a developer as well ;)
