Fall 2024 - Lectures are a bit boring in general and no slides but there is some interesting stuff in the class. 2 essays and a few quizzes but the quizzes are take-home so not too bad. The class is a pretty easy A (you still have to put in a decent bit of work), but an A+ is pretty much nonexistent contrary to what the grade distribution says, because he doesn't actually give A+'s to 97%+ grades. He only gives it if you have a perfect 100%, so pretty much nobody.
