    The difference between my lecture in Code Week Varna was bigger than the title :) Lecture was almost two hours and was mostly geeky-discussion-based but yet kept in mind that there was persons that have small or no experience. We talked about Quality Assurance, performance testing and security testing with a lot of examples and humor. One of the chillest lectures I had this year.
