Good introduction to the changes in PHP 7 and some solid quick advice on how to check for upgrade readiness of your current projects which we will be using as we explore upgrading from 5
Thanks!

The content was great.
We could obviously tell that the speaker was a bit nervous in presentation but they powered through that and gave some solid information/tips for those who are already somewhat familiar with OAuth 2.
I found this talk very useful.
Thanks

What it says on the tin. Well-organized, good examples despite the example syntax highlighting being a bit difficult to read.

Very cool talk on self care and making sure that you are maximizing your physical/mental potential in your workspace.

Great content. Nice way to catch up to PHP 7.

Presentation style absolutely nailed it, and probably gave beginners a lot of subjects to follow up on.

The examples for each pattern were problematic for me: showing Service Locator as a good idea; advocating keeping Session in a container; saying Factory is a Design Pattern (it's not, Factory Method is and is different to what was presented); a lot of use of statics and base classes.

This may be a slightly harsh rating but these details matter. Please don't be discouraged because you're clearly a good speaker!

Great reminders of alternative usages in social media. When I grow up, can I be Keith?

Presentation was well polished, but I found the content a mixed bag. I would e.g. not recommend showing using a dependency injection container as a service locator, and I would (for most cases) suggest using a chaining implementation of a common interface instead of using chain-of-responsibility in order to avoid a base class and to make object construction easier.

Great content, well presented, interesting mix of idealism and evil. Would love to see this talk in a longer format with some demos.
