I love that Zak references it in "non-digital way" so I can get a better picture!

Thus far, we've spent a lot of time -73 minutes of videos - listening to an instructor talk and not a lot of time learning JavaScript . I found it quite annoying to have an instructor read me a slide that details all the various versions of JavaScript and when they came out. The pace is SLOW largely because of these unnecessary forays into minutiae.
