people are already complaining that you can only take the quizes once ... he had to send out an email today to everyone saying:

"Many of you are unhappy with only being allowed to attempt a quiz once. Starting in week two, we have therefore decided to make up twice as many questions and to allow you to do each quiz twice if you want to. The second time you try it the questions will all be different. Your score will be the maximum of your two scores. For week one, the quizzes will remain as they are now.

Many of you would like the names of the videos to be more informative. We will change the names to indicate the content and the duration.

Some of you thought that some of the quiz questions were too vague. We will try to make future questions less vague.

Some of you are unhappy that we do not have the resources to support Python for the programming assignments. We sympathize with you and would do it if we could. You are still welcome to use Python (or any other language) if you can port the octave starter code to your preferred language. We have no objection to people sharing the ported versions of the starter code (but only the starter code!). However, if you get starter code in another language from someone else, you are responsible for making sure it does not contain bugs."

I thought that was pretty funny!

Yeap we got spoiled with earlier classes: Algorithms by Tim Roughgarden, Machine Learning by Andrew Ng, and many more. We probably need to follow a class on gratitude.

Oh well, to be fair I would donate quite a lot for each course that I enjoyed.

Actually all the entitled bitching and moaning on the ML class forum was by far the biggest turnoff of the whole experience for me. I was much happier after ignoring it and my "classmates" entirely.
