 @mhoye a final essay exam question could be "here's a one-paragraph summary of CatB, explain why it resonated in the late-90s and what it got wrong". (You can also borrow from my fav compsci prof, who on occasion assigns "explain this XKCD" as a final exam question...) |
@Jaimie CatB is a hard no. That text has aged extraordinarily badly, as has its author.
