Very good explanation of how to refactor legacy code. Well done.

Good talk covering basic things all PHP developers should be doing regardless of level.

It was great talk but more about node than PHP + node.

Thanks Luis! If there's anything I can do to help just let me know, and I'll definitely work on improving the presentation and trying to include more examples/ use-cases.

Great talk that got me excited about 5.6.

A little to basic for me. And I think there was a lot of important material that was kind of glazed over that probably should have been explained.

Things like the small gotchas in PDO prepared statement. Making sure charsets are set and htmlentities /htmlspecialchars are passed the current charset. I think password storage section could stressed on the importance of per-user salts, and maybe an overview of what password hashing actually does... and why even salted md5/sha etc.. are still not good enough. I think some examples of CSRF tokens and how they actually work would have driven the point home better.

Good points, is that I'm glad OWASP was stressed so much. And that the top 10 was used as a guideline for the talk.

Decent introduction to traits, but I felt that the presentation was missing one or two more use cases that would have solidified why/where one would use traits in my mind.

This was a painful talk, but only because it all makes so much sense. I need to go home and start rewriting all my code! I will never look at code the same way again.

Great presentation. I hope to use what I learn in projects soon.
