I took CS193P when it was first offered in 2007; one of my favorite classes at Stanford because it was so hands-on. At the time few people had iPhones, so everyone in the class got a free iPod Touch for development. My final project was a photo sharing app with a Polaroid shake to reveal mechanic… lightly influenced Instagram which Kevin and I built a few years later!

Does Stanford pair this class with their training on passing FAANG interviews?

Do angel investors show up to class demo day?

Does the Stanford gift shop sell knee pads branded with the school logo?

In the university environment, how about have classes use open standards and open source, and save the commercial compromise for post-graduation.

Otherwise, how will graduates even know when they're whoring, if they have no basis for comparison.

They won't have a basis for comparison, and they'll do something crazy, like turn a simple information retrieval function into normalizing intimate surveillance and attention capture of everyone, while congratulating themselves on being the good guys.

I did the 2014 version of this to learn Swift to port an Android app I made.

He’s an excellent teacher!

I think he worked at Apple so he shared a lot of the history behind the APIs in iOS going back to the NextStep days.
