I want to point out slide 21: No “rest of this paper is...”
This practice drives me crazy, because it's essentially just an outline, which is useless. It's a computer science research paper, I already know the outline! His advice to not have that paragraph, but instead put in forward references to the relevant sections in the introduction is spot-on.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have to get back to reviewing papers which did not take this advice...

I hate that practice as well, yet have still been directed to do it by editors.
also the constant use of "the proposed method/approach/technique/algorithm/etc"
