Add Ethics Course
Ethics being a very important education in field of computer science. CS 2013 Says, while technical issues are central to the computing curriculum, they do not constitute a complete educational program in the field. Students must also be exposed to the larger societal context of computing to develop an understanding of the relevant social, ethical, legal and professional issues. This need to incorporate the study of these non-technical issues into the ACM curriculum was formally recognized in 1991.

Advanced Applications subsumed by Project
Clarifies that the advanced application list is a subset of a larger, unspecified, set of adequate options.
Advanced Applications was listed as a precursor and possible replacement for the final project. This merges the two and specifies that students may choose another avenue for creating a capstone project.

08456ba471 More realistic estimate for OS course
Hi,

I am currently taking this course and I am about half way into it. I already have a CS degree and I've been working as a developer for ~8 years.

The course is very interesting and comprehensive.
If you want to do this course properly, I think 6 hours per week for this course is bare minimum:
- There are ~3 hours of lectures each week
- The original course is split into 14 weeks
- Each chapter has homework at the end of it
- Homeworks are not very difficult, but some of them require significant amount of work
- Projects require significant amount of work

Remove direct link to issues
We often get issues opened that are empty, with no text or description of a problem. This may be because learners follow the link from the Community section, and post in order to interact. By removing the link (but keeping the link to the contributing instructions) we can hopefully direct new learners in how to interact productively.

Intro to Parallel Programming's grader is broken, it's impossible to submit programming assignments. It's also impossible to compile and run the code on your PC, unless you own an nVidia GPU. Thankfully some nice folks on Github created a Google Research Colab page where you can compile and run your homeworks (unfortunately the Final Exam is not available and probably never will be). I understand this uses Google's GPU sharing.
