This guy speaks sooo fast, and for a person whose mother tongue is not english like me was very hard to follow him, but it worth it, I actually recorded the session, hehehe
code examples and/or slides would have been pretty helpful to clarify some of the concepts, but great talk otherwise.
Blazingly fast. It was hard to keep up, but worth it.
Find the best parts of technology you like and use it as a model for your own. Awesome.
I’d say CW talks too fast, but the talk was information-dense. I wouldn’t want to lose any of it.
If there were slides you couldn’t have followed this guy given how fast he was speaking. And you wouldn’t want to miss any of the good high value content this guy was providing. A transcript of this presentation would be an instant classic.
In a community of people who talk fast, you are definitely the fastest I’ve found so far. You make it work. Thanks. I learned a bunch even tho you had no slides. Awesome.
