Comment on Presentation Rules

Very good. All of that makes sense to me. Well almost

Can't make heads or tails out of point 12 though. Who's including homework (??) in slides and making some assumption about it? Very "failed to communicate" meta.

I believe point 12 advises to avoid slides that try to impress by obscure complexity.

An offending example might be a slide showing complicated equations that remain unexplained by the presenter. I've observed many presentations where such slides are introduced as "this is the equation used to derive value X from earlier, but I am just going to move on to the next slide..."

edit: format
