> Coursera class … started today… 77000 signed up

That’s actually just a Coursera marketing tactic. Most of their courses are not real-time and are self-paced content.

So, they act like they are starting the course “Today” every day, and the 77k enrolled is the # of enrolled users forever since the course has been offered. Totally misleading!
