great topic. Good coverage. Some questions required a teacher more familiar with the library. Lecture a little high energy for me to soak up the information.

Really good talk. Highly energetic speaker. Gave a great level of detail for the time allotted.

Speaks more to the culture of testing (or not), and experiences of adoption, quite positively.

The term "test" is misused, and vocabulary influences thinking, including adoption and discouraging poor practices. I've taken to labeling what people do in browsers by saying "so... you were poking it with a stick?" in response to certain uses of the word "test". It reinforces not that it is horrible, just that it isn't good enough and people should be a little embarrassed to be satisfied with that.

A good companion would be a "practical" walk-through of one type of test case.

Informative talk. I'm a front end developer and I use jquery on nearly every project, so it was interesting to see this perspective. I really liked the example scenario as a way to see the differences between how to do things in vanilla js versus jquery. I liked that I actually got to see code.

Speaker is familiarize with the topics and provided good overview for the data structure.

Good overview and comparison of frequent front end tasks completed in plain JS and jQuery. I like that you proved up the concept by building your app both ways.

The date formatting info didn't seem tightly related to the comparison, but maybe I just missed it.

You mention jQuery Animate vs CSS transitions, but you didn't really walk through an example.

The start of your talk lauds jQuery, even professing not to convince anyone to use plain JS, and then dives into comparisons. You should move some of the arguments in your conclusion up to your intro to motivate audience to care. Perhaps at least tease how there are now compatible, simple replacements for the most common front-end tasks. It would be great if you could find a few things that are even easier in plain JS.

Thanks for all the effort you put into this.

Great talk. I am kind of like in a cocoon and just work with my colleagues. I felt I didnt learn new stuffs enough. For sure, I will act and be a more professional developer.

A thorough overview of the different Data Structures implemented in the SPL and Ardent. Very helpful for those of us long removed from our Computer Science classes and have forgotten that PHP offers a lot more data structures than just Hashed Arrays for holding data.

Use of GOT characters in the examples was a nice touch.
