Great information and examples.

The font size needs to be bigger for the people in the back though.

Amazing talk. I learned a lot. Completely changed the way I think about writing/giving a talk. Thank you very much!

Great delivery style, seemed so calm. Really looking forward to getting into people's rooms using the techniques you talked about. ;)

A solid overview of capabilities of Elastic Search. It would be a great fit for my company: difficult to sell this concept. I did learn quite a bit and a few important search concepts.

The talk was on the dry side, and technical problems kind of derailed it a little bit.

I find that a powerpoint with happy path code can work very well in a 1 hour talk: we are not trying to write code, just get an introduction into capabilities. Plus it can be spiced up with hilarious memes!

Josh was as engaging as always! I loved every moment of this talk and so many pieces resonated strongly. I especially appreciated the section on Celebrating Outcomes -- Been there, done that with the app ready to launch only to find out that the business premise behind it was based on a completely flawed assumption about the customer (not the users). I also greatly appreciated the section on Diversity of Thought and how important it is to ensuring quality because it ensures we are looking at the problem from many different angles.

Great Tutorial. Speaker is very knowledgeable. He was able to answer questions in a very friendly manner. Will love to see more talks on other topics from this speaker.

This was the first time it finally clicked for me how reasonable it would be to start implementing elasticsearch into our technology stack. Very excited to start working with it and will definitely be referring back to the information presented here as I do so!
Few issues with the live code - but that’s always an adventure ;)
