    The invitation flow is very roundabout (even if you sheepishly admit it :-)), and the group account invitation doesn't seem to work at first. I tried to authorize a third-party acc…

    The researcher set out to prove his own pet hypothesis, several of the experiments quoted are based on self-reported results (of "feeling warmer"?) and the whole thing seems wholly…

    > What did I say that isn't true? Actually, I was wrong. The terms incorrectly stated that past subscribers couldn't have access to the Free Weekend. That's what was untrue and has…

    We didn't plan for it but it's going to make for a perfect little refreshing break for people between courses and we're definitely going to have Netflix playing in the office while…

    We try never to make assumptions that would exclude beginners in our intro courses. As someone already mentioned, it's easy to jump ahead if you already know that stuff. If someone…

    What you say simply isn't true. The Free Weekend is offered to all users (past or present) as long as they don't currently have a subscription to Code School. Time extensions aren'…
