I think in the context of courses and books, it's more common that they are paid unless noted otherwise.

So in this case, if it happened to be a free course, I would have expected the parent comment to specifically mention that it's free, otherwise it's implied to cost money.

I'm kind of curious now, how exactly would you have written the parent comment's message?

My first answer to the OP sounded a lot more judgmental than intended.

His post is fine although I would try to spare fellow HNrs a visit to the site just search for basic information like duration and how much it costs or how it compares to similar online resources.

Well, since his post didn't have that information, it would be nice for you to provide that info and spare fellow HNrs a visit to the site, instead of accusing the poster of being a marketing drone.

I could not find price information - looks like they are just collecting emails, but someone in this thread mentioned other courses are in the 50-80 USD ballpark.
