Drupal 8 REST-capable, object-oriented :) - Hello, its 2015, you are at least 10 years behind other frameworks. Sans backward compatibility.

Clients (end users) will be very impressed, and all this is going to cost them how much exactly? lol.

Grow up.

Drupal is still neither framework (RoR, Django) nor something usable out of the box like, Wordpress..

I enjoy Nate's talks, but I have to admit this talk was a little meandering and could have been better served by a little more focus.

I would have prefered seeing something more functional, instead of showing a work in progress. Perhaps a little less complex code base may have served as better examples to begin with, and then perhaps end with "look at this cool thing I made" it's HUGE and AWESOME!

Still, I love JavaScript and learning about the new ES6, and thus still enjoyed this talk.

Thanks for the talk Nate!

Love your passion. But, if one wasn't already near the bleeding edge this talk was very difficult to follow and understand. At times hard to tell when you were referring to ES6 vs an included library or something you wrote.

A very good subject, but the presentation was not well done. Too much text, conflation of patterns, overly focused on talking about database as persistence instead of detail.

This talk was quite confusing, it was hard to understand what was cool new ES6 stuff and what was other tools and libraries. Needed to explain one topic in depth instead of trying to show many things with one code snippet each.

Good discussion around an uncomfortable and nuanced problem. Probably needed more time as the discussion ran long many were unable to ask their questions.

I really enjoyed this as a frank discussion of diversity in tech and life in general.

I applaud Beth for being willing to share some real world examples from her own life.

Great talk! Thank you!
