- projectileboy 17y agoAs an HN community member, I find this a bit upsetting - this link got upmodded to 20 (as of now), and all it is is a link for a course offering. So either (a) fogus is part of a voting ring, or (b) the HN community has degenerated to the point where we upvote stuff based on title alone. What gives?
- fogus 17y agoI'm not following. What exactly are your complaints about this submission? I submitted it because I thought it was interesting and apparently so did ~20 others. I assume you did not since you complained, but you could have instead not paid attention to it.
- projectileboy 17y agoFair enough. If enough folks found a free online course worthwhile, then I probably am overreacting. I think I'm just becoming (overly?) sensitive to the degengration of what used to be a stronger community. My apologies.
- pmjordan 17y agoI think you're overreacting. The course is free and seems to be online, so the potential audience is pretty large. I don't see why upvoting this would be such an audacious thing to do.
- csspixel 17y agoI agree. I find the registration process really irritating. An email will be sent to your registered email address (could take 2-3 days). This email contains a link to confirm your account. Please click on that link.
- pygy_ 17y agoI subscribed, and got the message instantly. The signup process is more convoluted than the current trend, but it was the norm a few years ago and I don't find it that annoying.

- dpritchett 17y agoI would've liked a bit more detail about the course (times, dates, how classmates will collaborate) but it's hard to argue with free. Edit: Signup took two minutes. Upon logging in I'm presented with a simple course management software dashboard that alludes to scheduling, student forums, grade tracking, course methodology, and uploaded resources. There's also an associated GitHub repo: http://github.com/ghoseb/clojure101/ http://github.com/ghoseb/clojure101/
