Auditing this course as well:
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
The course above is part of the AI MicroMasters program:
EDIT: So far, this course [ Artificial Intelligence (AI) ] is not well done and the lecturer is of poor quality compared to other edX courses I am auditing.
In contrast, Introduction to the Schrödinger Equation and Quantum Transport is great and the lecturer is very good and clearly knows the topic very well.

Now auditing at 1.5x speed replay:
Programming for the Web with JavaScript
It's actually pretty good at 1.5x speed. The lecturer is good and the course is well done. I skipped the "intro to Web Development" part and went straight to the Javascript lessons.
Even though I already program JS, I have learned a few new things already in the first module.
Recommended for sure if you wan to learn Javascript.
EDIT: Wow... I'm 1/3 of the way thru this class. If you are interested to learn Javascript, I highly recommend this course. It's free to audit!

I need to be able to compare dates in the format of Jan 10, 2012 and Jan 10 2012. (Notice one has a comma).
Then I need to find the date that is 7 days before those dates if they are equal.
How can I do this in Bash.
