Do you feel like really you can kind of grow and learn?

CS50 is beloved.

People have, the reception online is so overwhelmingly positive and you've been doing it for so long.

What is next with CS50?

Like, do you see yourself kind of continuing the same curriculum for the next decade or will things change?

When you mention math and these other subjects, it kind of reminds me, I mean, I haven't been in the schooling system for a long time, but Khan Academy was like a very popular resource.

I imagine that's still around.

And so that would be, I guess, a competitor.

And so if those are, let's say I'm a parent and I'm deciding, should I put my high schooler in the Khan Academy learning track of math or what you plan to offer?

Coming to the end, when you look back on your career, what is your biggest regret?

What about looking back on your time doing CS50?

If you were to just reflect on what went well and what didn't go well, just the highlights of your time running the course, what would you say?

What's your best technical book recommendation if someone wants to learn programming or if there's maybe some other topic that you recommend a book for?

I'd love to hear it.

Is there an official textbook for the Harvard CS50, not the open one?

That's great.

I love that idea.

Last question for you is, if you could go back to the beginning of your career and kind of give yourself some advice, what would you say?

Awesome.

Well, thank you so much for your time.
