SymfonyCon Lisbon 2018
4 - 8 Dec 2018 at Lisbon Marriott Hotel

Learning from someone elses errors and experience is always worth hearing.

Good explanation of how Doctrine works under the hood.
Even if this talk was probably more focused on beginners, it was a nice refresh on some concepts. and there were some more advanced tricks also.

I think this would be much better as an opening keynote instead of the closing one so attendees can learn about details they might have missed and possibly go to a related talk if there is a one.

After 2 days of conferencing, everyone is really tired and it was bit showing: maybe closing should be more charismatic/energetic so people would leave the conference completely pumped and full of energy? (just an observation, not a complaint)

I still loved it, thank you both for a great closing of the 2018 conference.

Great subject, amazing content, good speaker.

I have a feeling speaker was trying to put so much into 1 talk that he had to go very fast in order to fit everything in, combined with a strong French accent which was bit hard to follow. Few slides had lots of code, so please be aware about us not being in first 5 rows.

And thank you Kevin for ApiPlatform and all of the great work you put in OSS!

Speaker was visibly nervous (standing in front of 500ppl is never easy) but I wouldn't say it has degraded the performance too much.

I did a very similar talk to this, I know how hard it is to talk about ES cause there will be always be people who:
- understand nothing as they never heard of ES
- heard about ES
- read about it but never used it
- played with it
- using ES

and you cant please all of them since gap in understanding and knowledge is just to big. I think talk was mostly valuable to middle two groups (people who read about it and who played with it).

As talk was given at SymfonyCon on advanced track I expected it to be more Symfony than Prooph related.

I would suggest speaker to avoid so many bulletpoints (especially first 3 slides since I was reading it instead of listening to him), avoid looking at the big screen and reduce amount of text when talking about projections.

Good job Tim, I hope to see you talk on more conferences!

It is a particular style of presenting that Michael showed that you have to like but I have great respect that he's able to keep your attention even if the whole room is waiting for a profiler to run.

Too basic for the advanced tracking.
I didn't feel offended by the swearing but didn't understand the point...

Very funny and entertainer guy.

Besides of what she presented being very basic for an advanced track, the posture of the lady speaker was awful. She acted like she was a boss in Symfony and in programming, tech lead and bla bla bla. Insulted the rookies and everyone who don't know the basics, but, in sum, she was so boring and so shittty saying f words. I'm just using her language now, F off you lady. Zero.

I appreciate the experience shared by the speaker.
