Yeah but people will put 40 lines of code on a slide and read through it, expecting that it will explain the underlying concept while I’m trying to parse a ton of code in front of my eyes.
Most of the time that I am presenting technical material, I spend it on explaining the concepts through short descriptions, hand-draw illustrations or diagrams.
If there’s code to show, it will be smaller snippets interspersed between those slides. If attendees want to deep dive into 100 lines of code, it is best that they do it on their own time at their own pace after I send out the materials.
I actually talk about code but this applies to non-technical presentations too. Yeah, it’s also not a sales presentation but don’t wall-of-text me.

Explain concepts to me.
