    Luckily, there is a single snapshot on archive.org: https://web.archive.org/web/20190716130840/https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1WPyAO4pHRsfwGoiIZupz_-tzAdv8mirw-aZfbxbAVcQ/edit?usp=sharing

    but due to google's iframe-busting JS code, i have no idea how to navigate or download that content.

    If someone can figure out how to download it, or recreate it, that'd be great - otherwise, it's gone forever, and we'll just need to remove the link.

    I can navigate from page to page on that archive.org link, and copy the text. It seems feasible to create a markdown file somewhere that preserves the text. Although some slides seem to be mostly blank but look like they were intended to have something on them, so maybe images are missing?

    @ptomato I keep getting JS errors - if you can capture all the content, and on top of that, screenshots of each slide, I would be more than happy to recreate it to the best of my ability.

    Sure, here is the content: https://hackmd.io/@ptomato/rJRH8mHW5 As you can probably see, there are several slides that look like they were intended to have something on them, but don't.

    I can take the screenshots as well, where would be a convenient place to upload them? If nothing else, I could attach them in a comment in this thread, I guess.

    I think uploading them here is the most rot-resistant approach :-) feel free to tuck them behind a <details> tho.

    Also, if you can see the html, maybe there's img tag srcs that could clue in to what the images were?

    Attached is an HTML file with the SVG code from that archived page (with a few fixes to display all the slides, and to render fonts correctly where possible). Unfortunately, the images appear to be lost as neither Archive.org nor Google still have them.

    That seems more effective than attaching the screenshots, thanks.
