alt Hacker NewsSeeing people whining and gnashing and bitching, in vein it should be observed, about this sort of nonsense is so uproarious and, quite honestly, pathetic.
Like the root post whining that it's too polished. Christ. Get a grip and go touch grass if this is the sort of pathetic nonsense someone actually takes the time to whine about.
It's actually funny how every single presentation like this always gets topped by profoundly boring people complaining about some aspect of the presentation: The people aren't standing right or moving the way you want. OMG look at his jacket. That joke wasn't funny. Etc. Christ.
Yes, most people just want the information, not some sort of organic, "all-natural" presentation.

I think some people mistake "I don't value the human layer of a communication" with "The human layer has no value".
A presentation is a live audio visual medium. If you just want the information as facts with no affect why not read the stats later?
Some might say the information here is even more padded and puffed than in a traditional presentation.
amen, god forbid they try to make a polished display of new features instead of fumbling through live presentations
