Great talk, showing the real world. But also a bit disencouraging in trying to start the next thing. ;)
So many great takeaways from this talk. After following you on twitter and in various discussions online - I wasn't sure what to expect from this session but it was truly awesome, motivating and inspirational. Drawing connections from my own experiences and finding new meanings in philosophies learned long ago - I will for a long time be able to look back at this session and realize how much more there is I should be striving to do to grow as a better empath, problem-solver, communicator, developer, PHPer etc.

Paul was an engaging speaker and did a great job sharing lots of useful information. Although I've already had the pleasure of trying to update legacy code, Paul has given me much better insight into the process.
One of the best talks I've seen at any conference ever. Inspiring and a real call to action. I agree that this is a keynote-level presentation.
There was a lot of stuff in the slides and it felt like Dave went through everything very quickly, but the upside was that that gave us plenty of time for questions. Looking forward to seeing the slides online so I can absorb all the details!
I loved this talk. I walked out with 5 or so actionable items. This is a great talk to hear when you're trying to grow as a software developer.
Probably one of the most unique presentation I been to yet. Yitz had a lot of great info, advice, and tips that I think anyone could take from it. The entire presentation was very well planed and timed. The one thing I liked when he spoke about user groups and I known a lot of folks who wanted to start and keep a user group going. One thing I would like to hear from Yitz is how to keep those usergroups going and alive. It seems like most of them start up then either die off or slowly fade in numbers.
Overall great. I agree when others mentioned this should really be a keynote instead.
For me a lot was review, which is still good. The last part was best with the what's next list. Enjoyed the talk and thought it was entertaining.
Great talk and the 5. thumb for that awesome mo!
