I have watched a talk a while ago; on how classes are way too overused in Python and with great “refactor” tips of removing the unnecessary code. It was almost a revelation on how bad “best practices” can creep into your code.
In this regard, what are a few of the talks that you’ve watched that had an impact on your development practices? Also, specify the language.

Unidirectional data flow really changed the way I write web apps. And Talks from Rich Hickey and David Nolen just pushed it further.
My favourites:
Maybe one conference at PHP day Spain by Carlos Buenosvinos talking about the Hexagonal architecture and the DDD that intriduce me into the world of DDD, SOLID principles and want to know more about all this new software infrastructure.
Some of my favorites
You code like a noob! Your code sucks! My son writes better code than you!
These are my inspirational quotes, which changed the way I code and the way I learn! When I first started coding, I tend to ask for help, a lot! And all those comments are from top coders in various forums and that is how I learn to code better!

I would say any talk from Sandy Metz. Always well constructed and clear, even though I don't do any Ruby.
