I will be talking about whether there is such a thing as bad code and I'll also look at what makes good code and I'll also touch on whether technological advancement will one day make all code bad.

Clear and confident delivery. Asking some great questions and taking a bigger picture look at code quality, will certainly change the way people think about code reviews

First up: great title. Looking dapper.
Nicely not just reading off the slide! I would have liked you to echo the points in your narrative a bit more, though. I think you can swear on stage.
I like the lack of blame in your talk, it's important to me.
Well done!!!

A great talk about rubbish code, some great examples and points given. It would have been great to see potentially some of his own code, as self reflection is a good thing (even I show my rubbish code off and how I learnt from it)

Interesting ideas, I liked the debate format with both sides given equal time.

I think it would have been good to put less on each slide and have more of them, to make the information easier to absorb and consider.

Alot of us learners believed our code was rubbish to show to others. It's good to see that at higher levels it's not only a concern, but it isn't necessarily a bad thing.
