It could be a great topic but somehow he doesn’t connect.
One problem is there is no one definition of “great”. I really like using bash on the command line and for simple scripts. I really like Powerpoint for making decks with elaborate visuals. I hesitate to say they have anything in common.
Bash and Powerpoint both seem approachable at first. It's easy to get started and have something to show for your time. Both also completely suck at anything complicated.
