Algorithms Demystified – Dylan Beattie @ NDC Copenhagen 2025

Ever had your brain freeze when someone says “just use Dijkstra’s algorithm”? In this talk, Dylan Beattie breaks down core algorithms—from shortest-path to autocorrect magic—in plain English, showing why they matter, how they work, and how to apply them in real code.

You’ll leave with a clear mental model for tackling tricky coding challenges (hello, Advent of Code), squashing subtle bugs, and supercharging your software’s smarts. No jargon, no tears—just algorithmic clarity.
