Student review (2026-10-16): The content itself is really interesting, but it's presented in a really confusing way. The content doesn't really make sense until you learn about stuff in later lectures. Like the powerpoint slides for the lectures are filled with abbreviations and acronyms that are never clarified as to what they mean.
