Cybernetics, if I recall rightly, was a “multidisciplinary (80 series when I was there) class, no?
His classes were my favorite because he was one of the few profs that really didn’t sugar coat things and appreciated those that put effort in.
- dekhn 2y agoWell, this was 1993 so my memory may be faulty but I believe it was a CS class (or maybe math?) I put the effort in but he didn't appreciate me. I still got a lot of out of the course, though: the imposter syndrome it gave me made me work extra hard to learn actual CS I needed to be successful later in my career.
