Have any of you taken a #Python course (beginner/intermediate level) on edx.org that you'd like to recommend?
(I am not looking for myself, and for the purposes of this discussion I am not looking for recommendations on other platforms. This is purely about learning Python specifically on #edX, not about learning Python in general.)
Boosts for reach appreciated!
Thought that I'd do the Introduction to Linux course on #edX as I am sure that there are loads of things that I don't know and really should. I'm not fussed about getting a certificate, so I just wanted to audit the course (the term edX have for following the lessons, but not getting the tests or other additional services).
What I didn't know was that if you don't pay not only do you get an avert to pay on every single page that reappears even if you close them, but also every page that you're not getting (because you're not paying) is replaced with another advert (along with the original advert) and then every 5th page or so you get another pop up advert.
This isn't what I would call reasonable. It almost makes the course impossible to do, especially if like me, you really, really, really hate f#(king adverts!
So I'm going to complete the course and I really hope that that they ask me for feedback so that I can tell them that they are a bunch of spamming ar$eholes.
