Weekly, I let them set the agenda (but add to it if I have something specific to cover) and also let them cancel it if they have nothing to check in on (but I never cancel!). At least once a quarter, talk about goals/progress/feedback so they know if they are on track for review time.
A better system is needed to allow for verified accounts, without requiring the kind of info that would allow hackers and bad actors to access your real email, address, phone number, etc. Dual authentication is a start but for now, it requires putting even more info out there (I didn't share a phone number on any site until I had to for authentication purposes).
If you are making enough to live comfortably and save for the future, you're doing better than the majority of the population, don't worry about the comparisons!
Agreed, collaborations and publishing innovative research/experimentation go much further than trying to do a course simplified to the level that it can be taken online.
Ok, but the point isn't little green men -- it's that SETI is now using AI and a convolutional neural network. Not that AI and ML isn't also a victim of media hype...
