  1. Re:Quality on What Professors Can Learn From "Hard Core" MOOC Students · · Score: 2

    Actually there is a site that does scoring of MOOCs:

    http://coursetalk.org/

    Personally, I don't think there are enough reviews there to be statistically significant yet, but there is a basic rating as well as reviews.

  2. Re:huh? on FBI Delays Computer-System Contract · · Score: 5, Informative

    They spent over 105 million dollars on a software project called the "virtual case file" to support this. The project failed. IEEE Spectrum magazine has a long article that dissects the project in their September issue. Here is a link:

    It is an interesting and sad story.

  3. Re:Malcolm's Seven? on Firefly Premieres Tonight · · Score: 1

    Ah, that was the famous smartass computer Orac.

    Blake's Seven was a fantastic show. I loved how they changed cast members as the seasons progressed (first time I saw a show kill off key personnel).

    The final scene in the final episode was truly memorable.
