Great talk on how to estimate your projects.
Valuable information I can use to pass on to my students that are looking to work as an independent contractor
Documentation is hard. Jonathan Reinink reminds us that it's also necessary. I will be using some of what I learned in my own projects, so thank you!
The speaker's enthusiasm for this topic certainly helps make this a more interesting talk to attend. Well done!
An entertaining talk. I can picture this as a end-of-day talk to let loose after much brain cram. With that said, Corey needs to be put on a leash and let nowhere near my bash profile.
I've shared some of these terrible ideas, including the https://github.com/nvbn/thefuck library, with my coworkers.
A nice shallow dive into HTTP. I appreciated all of the RFC mentions; I will be looking into some of these later! This is a style of talk I enjoy: the speaker was matter-of-fact, but also humble; the slides contained just the right amount of information to not distract from what the speaker was saying; it's shallow enough to let the audience know that there's so much more if only we'd look.
I had no idea what to expect from this talk; although, I have seen Dave talk before at the Kansas Linux Fest and thoroughly enjoyed his DB talk there.
Excellent use of humor and insider info to give us some skinny on good relational design.
Excellent use of humor and humility.
My main application does some things on the back-end that never see the light of http. I really appreciated this refresher of step-debugging and that debugging from a browser session AND the CLI were highlighted. I was able to use this almost a week later at work while trying to figure out why my changes to the API were throwing nasty errors while loading fixtures. Without step-debugging, this would largely be a guess and check with `var_dump`. With step-debugging from the CLI, I was able to quickly discern the actual problem and provide a hotfix. Woo!
And to add to @GeeH's bank account: "PhpStorm is AWESOME!"
Fantastic talk, inspiring and personal.
The talk was perfect for me in figuring out a new approach to a problem I was attempting to address earlier in the week. It made me want to get to work on it right away. As of today, 4 days after the speech, I was successfully able to implement a Strategy Pattern solution for my problem.
Jonathan is a great speaker & was pleasant before/after the session in talking.
Great talk on databases. As a professor, there were some things I was able to take away to add to my classes.
