The course was very interesting and perfectly led by Jean-Anael, who was able to adapt to everyone's level of knowledge.

The subjects are very interesting but it was very dense. Perhaps the course could be split into several sessions.

Too many subjects covered, interesting if you want a veneer of general knowledge, but doesn't go into concrete subjects and doesn't allow you to progress or learn. I don't think it's the instructor's fault, but the content of the course is too broad.
