Title: $3000 MIT Course on GPU Computing -- Bonus Crypto Info Inside

Thoughts? Anyone catch this?  ;D

I think it's a shame they used NVIDIA, but it'd of been cool to sit in on the course and listen to them explain parallel processing in depth from an academic perspective.

Bonus: Cryptography and Computer Security MIT Course (http://web.mit.edu/professional/short-programs/courses/cryptography_computer_security.html) with the lecture notes found here (http://cseweb.ucsd.edu/~mihir/papers/gb.html).

If you found this information useful donate... to Wikileaks because they now accept BTC!
