Powerpoint. I have contempt for Word, like Excel for editing tables (if it doesn&#x27;t matter if it gets math right)<p>But with Powerpoint I can take &quot;boxes and lines&quot; diagrams right out of my head and onto the screen. It&#x27;s also pretty good for making print graphics on odd-sized cards, say a 5x7 card that is used to make a &quot;holder&quot; for a punched card decoder, or a 8.5x14 poster about recyclable vs. not-recyclable plastics.

TeX -&gt; PDF ... but I&#x27;m looking forward to trying this next time:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;tools.suckless.org&#x2F;sent&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;tools.suckless.org&#x2F;sent&#x2F;</a>

Google Slides has come a long way since it launched. Has much of the feature parity with PowerPoint, better real-time collaboration and is free with a Gmail account.
