Talk comments

You delivered a nice and clean talk, but it lacked some enthusiasm for me.
It felt you were a little nervous to do this, but I can understand, as a designer between all these developers...

I also had the impression that while you were trying to close the gap, you often pointed out the differences.
E.g. it offended me a bit that you called designers creative, but developers not (while imo coding is also sometimes a creative process).
It also felt like you think the developers are responsible for bridging the gap, you might have told your view on what designers should do to also take their responsibility in this relationship...

I wonder if you bring the same message at a design conference? I hope so!
Maybe you need to find a developer to co-host this talk with you, it would bring a so much stronger message.

About the time: the workshop is designed for 6 hours, so in 3 hours we only covered the basics on purpose :-)

Nice to watch but there is nothing I've learned.

Very interesting talk, speaker managed to pull off explaining quite a dry & theoretical CS concept (deterministic finite automatons) and applying it to a real-life application. The live coding was great. Speaker was very good and had good energy and enthusiasm.

Very good content, energetic & humorous delivery. Good balance between broad concepts and practical examples.
