==WAT Presentation==
* Presentation is mandatory homework. If you fail as a team all team members must do final graduation work.
* You will learn: how to present your ideas, how to lead team (or be a productive team member).
* You have to do it on time.
* Teams are formed by lecturer. Also I promote team leaders.
* Team size will depend on how many people attends to course in any given year. (usually 3-4 members per team)
===Your task explained===
Do a presentation about some major (braindead) design flaw or security hole or misfeature in some Protocol, Operating System, Programming Language, Service, etc.
It should not be about some usual misconfiguration problem.
Your presentation must rise a questions like: „What they where thinking?“ „Are people who designed this, totally braindead?“, „WAT?“
Your presentation gets valued higher if it's based on real life experience. I.e. member of your team has encountered this problem firsthand and wasted a time to solve a problem that should not exist at all.
If no-one at your team has had such an experience use google. You probably want to search about Windows but Linux and all programming languages contain enough „WAT“s.
Presentation should be comprehensive (and suggestionally funny)  describing the problem (and solution, if you have one). Length about 5 minutes, no more than 7 minutes.
Team will be avarded 0—4 points, depending on your performance.
====Some examples and materials====
* [https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/wat Excellent presentation, if you create something similar you get max points]
* [http://quake.rm-arendus.eu/?p=750 Exmple rant about very bad UI/UX experience] (NO! do not make presentation about this)
* [https://echo360.e-ope.ee/ess/echo/presentation/eb0d83fe-4b1c-4eff-9057-4621472e9217 sample WAT from lecturer]
====Team leader responsibilities====
Team leader will be responsible about presentation in general and not missing the deadline.
Team leader will delegate tasks (who finds topic, who prepares slides, who does actual presentation etc.)
Team leader will share awarded points between team members. He has cmplete freedom to share them whatever way he/she seems appropriate (including taking all the glory (i.e. points) by him/herself)
Team leader are responsible for re-scheduling a live presentation time if neended. He/she has to find the team to switch times, make a deal and inform lecturer NO LESS than one day before due date.
