Kudos to the Jeopardy king!
Very inspiring talk.
Nicely done. I hope more folks hear and feel your call to action and get involved!
Great presentation and delivery! Well paced and you did well to explain how each piece fit together. Not as many people are willing to talk about their architecture like this, so props to you and OpenSky for being willing to share.
Like some others have said, the code examples could benefit from changing to use a light background and dark text. Dark color scheme seems to work OK when showing only a few lines, but the larger examples are harder to see.
Jeopardy is always hilarious. The questions always make me laugh, and the others are educational. I wonder if you open-sourced the code if the community could help fix any of the crash issues, or improve it in some way. Maybe to find a solution for the buzzer functionality... like allow people to connect to the game via a browser/app and buzz in that way. But the crowd picking the person who raised their hand first adds a bit to the fun and involvement factor.
Mostly a good talk but theres a pervasive assumption that "you are only a php developer and thats all you'll ever be." Would like to have seen more encouragement to learn more langs, and go deeper into sysops.
Beautifully captured what I love about the PHP and open source communities. Well done, sir.
Nice job. You made us proud.
