The general topic of this talk is a good introduction to Technical Debt.
It's accessible to people provided they have a basic understanding of code.
There aren't any code examples given in any of the slides.
Instead it's very high-level.
Ultimately, people who haven't felt the pain of tech debt won't see the severity of the problem.
So people who are too young/inexperienced will make all the same mistakes of others before them.
Unless you inherit a horror show of a codebase and have to "fix" it for 2+ years, you won't have any idea what paying someone else's technical debt feels like.

Recommend watching the talk. 👍
