> documentation over working software
In the spirit of no true Scotsman, you're not truly enterprise until there is a combination of barely working software and aggressively wrong documentation working in perfect harmony
Not sure if I trimmed too many elements, but this should be the gist of it: https://pastebin.com/C6VjB341
Hopefully it's obvious that the click-to-advance is a style that suits my presentation style, and I would have made different choices if I intended it to be consumed online.
In any case, I've learned a lot since this talk and have on occasion considered updating it. I'm pretty surprised it's trending, TBH.
The content seems like it might be interesting but the presentation is so pretentious that it's quite literally unreadable. I gave up after about a dozen "give me the next word" finger taps on my phone. Just post the prose. Better writers and worse writers have done so, and people have read them.
Is there a format I can read this all at once? Or watch a talk? Presentations don't work so well if nobody is presenting.
Presentations aren't generally received well if the presenter just reads aloud the words shown on the slides, which seems like the only way one could present this.
Reading this word for word would be pretty silly but presenting alongside it would be great.

It's nice to see these patterns and thoughts written out.

Is there a public recording of you presenting the deck? Would love the full context.
