Could anybody say how these compare to Andrew Ng's ml-class? I'm almost through ml-class and I'm wondering, whether these courses add much.

I concur, this is a really good course. I've since switched to Clojure but I still think that I gained a lot from working through this course. It is a really great introduction into functional programming paradigms, and well worth it even if you don't plan to continue using Scala.

Have you seen the follow up course "Principles of Reactive Programming" too?

It's also by Martin Odersky, but also with Erik Meijer and Roland Kuhn.

Relevant: "Functional Programming Principles in Scala" starts in 4 days on coursera, which was created by the author of scala.

Any way to see when this was created? Do these ipython notebooks log create/change events? Just curious to see if this was a recent creation or just a recent discovery...

At norvig.com/ipython where the file is hosted it says it's from 18-Apr-2013.

Most talks will be 30 minutes, some will be 45. We don't know which are which yet; that'll come when we publish the actual schedule in the next couple weeks.

Excellent! Thank you very much, Jacob.

If y'all have questions, I'm the program chair so fire away. I'm happy to answer 'em here.

Are all of these full-length (~30+ minutes) talks? If not, is there some way to see which ones are full-length talks?
