php[tek] 2013
14 - 17 May 2013 at Sheraton Gateway Suites O’Hare

The content in this talk was really helpful-- I especially loved the breakdown of how to mentor beginning, intermediate, and advanced developers. I am in a position where I'm doing a whole lot of the latter, but didn't know how to think of it except as the former.

Also, it was very well scheduled, as it got me all pumped up for the mentorship summit!

Have to agree with the other reviewers. I thought the talk was really great-- good slides, good delivery-- I just wanted to get in even deeper.

This talk was entertaining, informative, and full of actionable ideas. As someone who deals with a lot of digital fraud, I found the content to be interesting and exactly as advertised. I appreciated that the talk had structure (a few rules, two stories). Brent said this was his first time giving a talk, but I wouldn't have guessed it from his speaking style-- very clear, confident, and comfortable.

Thanks for encouraging us to use proper workflow practices. I too need to improve things...

What an amazing talk! Thanks for being so open, and sharing your story. I know it will help a lot of people, and I'm sure that some of the community came closer together that day.

Loved the stats! It is truly amazing how diverse the server setups out there are! While not everyone agrees with the decision to support installation everywhere, as a user of Wordpress, I appreciate the effort you and your team go through to make it just work!

Keep chasing that long tail!

Thanks for sharing your story! I learned how important testing is, and that if done right, it works!

Thanks for the great information on security! There are so many aspects of security that we often either don't know about, or don't think about enough. Your presentation covered a lot of great material!

Thanks for a great intro to Symfony2!

Great presentation Rob! You had the honor of being the first presenter at NomadPHP, and I had the honor of learning something new. Being new to PHP, I have been very hesitant to approach ZF2. I started a tutorial before attending Tek13, and found it a bit difficult to follow. I decided to go to the Symfony tutorial session instead since I had seen ZF2 on my own, so I was very happy to know I'd get to see yours tonight.

In a very short time, you explained the basics of how things work very clearly. I can only imagine how much I'd learn in a full course on ZF2 taught by you!

I look forward to reviewing the recording soon.

Well done sir!
