Not accredited, but I applaud the effort. However, I decided to check out CS 101 to see what they were offering. I am compelled to slog through the entire course to form a full opinion but the content seems to have been assembled from ninth grade term papers. The first two reading exercises contain very little in the form of correct grammar, proper spelling, and coherent thought.

Interesting. I've mostly been a consumer here and rarely submit or comment but even so I never realized there was a guidelines page. Honestly, unless I need to find a "contact us" link I rarely look at the footer or any website. Perhaps a little more visibility of its existence would go a long way.

Strongly agree. I used to use Facebook. I don't any longer and never will again. Any service that forces Facebook connectivity won't get me as a user.

It would have been nice for the author to recognize that the reason that we have the DRY principle is because there is a natural need to repeat. If information and processes didn't need to be repeated then DRY wouldn't exist in the first place.
