I will repeat my "this makes me more confident that $50K/year college will be obsolete in 15 years" post. -- nm - Dr.Vermin May 30, 13:00 8
- Nothing beats learning in person (as opposed to, say, online courses). My wife is finishing a degree online - Don Homer May 30, 13:02 7
  - how many of those major univ lectures in a huge auditorium and/or a taped lecture, or read by a grad student? -- nm - zeitgeist May 30, 13:22
  - Exactly. This technology is providing live learning "in person", remotely. - Dr.Vermin May 30, 13:04 4
    - I'm pretty sure we've had this exact conversation before, but there's a lot of recognized value in people going to a place of learning - Reagen May 30, 13:10 3

        I'm certainly not against the idea. I think it's an add-on rather than a replacement, though. - Reagen May 30, 13:25
      - We have. I remain optimistic. -- nm - Dr.Vermin May 30, 13:17
  - tell me about it. -- nm - znufrii May 30, 13:03
Oh man, I built a system that did 40% of what that one does ... ten years ago. :( -- nm - Beryllium May 30, 12:59 3
- A) You need to work on following through. B) You need me to be your business manager. -- nm - David, neutral May 30, 13:00 2
  - I built it for a non-profit organization that never really ran with it, so it died on the vine. -- nm - Beryllium May 30, 13:16
  - and he needs someone to keep him on task. -- nm - Remlik May 30, 13:03
