hfern··on Marissa Mayer teaching at Stanford University
The issue is that her appearance should have no relation to what she said.

Imagine if you were her. You just spent some time preparing this and then spending an hour giving a speech to Stanford students. Meanwhile, all someone states about you is

> Intelligence has never been this adorable: Marissa Mayer, the sexy, hyperactive, geeky Vice-President of Search Product and User Experience at Google. Her Googliness was at Stanford University, giving her insightful take on creativity, followed by the usual Q&A. She's really the girl of the millenium.

The description is whole focused on her appearance and doesn't even go into the subject matter of her speech. Her entire speech that she devoted time into is summarily dismissed and turned into "Intelligence has never been this adorable."

> Women openly drool over hunky men.

That should tell you all you need to know about the rest of his comment. I actually find his comment quite ironic.

"...you will recieve an email with a promotional code for 3 months of Netflix. Offer valid for previous, new and existing Netflix members, one per Netflix account."

I would suspect not.

Decided to try the first few lessons and got a fun error:

> Expected 30 to be greater than 32.25806451612903.

They need to clarify the erroneous function call. (I was calling setInterval with 30ms instead of 1000/30)
