What's your favorite part of the SICP videos?

Name: Anonymous 2015-03-12 22:15

Mine is the last one, 10b, where Abelson is wearing the wizard hat and the Sussman is teaching. It gets near the end and the Sussman is asked ``So is this the last question'', and the Sussman just glares at him for a good ten seconds, obvioualy supressing his instinct to kill, but then says ``I guess so.'' and ends the class. I love it, it gets me every time!

The Sussman wore a wizard hat in one?
I've only ever seen the first few videos.

I don't think he was actually angry about it

My favourite part was when the police silently enter the classroom and remove a fugitive who's hiding among the crowd.

That or when he crosses out ``computer'' and ``science'' from the blackboard.

I really want to see this scene. On what lecture did this happen?

I believe that the iconic crossing out of ``computer'' and ``science'' happens in the first lecture.

Sorry, I meant the one with the police. I have watched the first lectures.

Oh there is, it's just not available to the general public.
It contains the forbidden knowledge part of computer programming magic.

Personally, I found the SICP, Satori Edition videos to be a bit lackluster. It was too terse, there was too much chanting, and Abelson's Eyes Wide Shut costume thing scared the fuck out of me. If the first volume was a spell book tell you how to make candy from air or summon lolies, Satori Ed tells you how to give your nemesis's children cancer or cause famines. No thanks.

Life is not all lolies and candies. Sometimes you gotta be tough, or your lolies will suffer.

My favourite moment is where the Steele is wearing his magician's cylinder, and he states: """my other vehicle is a pussy."""!

I like the white dude in 10b who is dressed like a raghead. That wouldn't fly in today's world!

Also, the catchy jingle on the wizard screen interludes.

That's fine as long as no one steals the candies.

Mine is the 13a, where the Sussman is dressed as a wizard, and he says ``My other car is a cudder'' while being a black snake, and one of the students who is Marisu proclaims ``Why why why don't I eval you forever‽''.

Marisu
Are you the "Satako" and the "Kirisama" guy?

the first three or four lectures were the only ones i watched, but I think my favorite part was the students eagerly learning, their eyes staring forward, as their minds were expanded, slowly reaching satori state.

My favorite part was when I was watching the version of the SICP videos in the astral, and then Patchouli made a cameo appearance.

It's probably Tokiko.

My favourite part was where that student, high on satori, self immolated to attain oneness with the world.

My favourite was the discussion of dubs-checking algorithms.
