Lectures

A bit off-topic:

I've been watching videos of a series of online lectures by Robert Sapolsky on human behavioural biology (ties in well with my original studies).

I noticed they also offer a set of videos for Programming Methodology and Programming Paradigms.

I'll probably get around to the programming ones after I'm finished with Robert Sapolsky (Whose lecture content find fascinating).

Who can argue with free education?

The parent website "Virtualprofessors.com" has lectures inmany other areas including mathematics, Engineering and so on.

If you want to get a grasp on multivariate Calculus or the basics of digitel communication, there are lecture series there to inform you.

I can't help thinking how wonderful it would be to have lectures like this for certain specific programming idealy in LabVIEW.

I'd subscribe to your youtube channel if you did this! I'd PAY for someone to help me get started programming with actors (but not too much :D).

iTunes U has a healthy amount of educational content too.

Go over to "A trip to Grandmas" (Tag "Grandma") Once you master that concept you have an "Actor" Then LVoop it. and the framework makes a lot of sense. (I did not charge much)

I'm sure that it really is that simple.
