Comment:
He's interesting and the class is informative. But the homeworks will be much harder than what he does in class, and very time consuming.

Comment:
He does not go into depth, but gives a high level overview - not exactly what you want in a grad-level course. He tends to drift off-topic a lot, and be prepared to listen to a lot of stories. The assignments are tough but useful. I would suggest you listen to online lectures on ML and linear algebra, do his assignments but skip the lectures.

Comment:
He teaches to that group of people in class who already know the material. He provides notes, which is cool, but is of the opinion that the notes should be studied in detail before coming to class, and so goes over them very fast. He also rates highly in the "make you feel like a dumbass" category when you ask questions.

He is the coolest Professor on the block. He knows a lot about a lot. He gives toooooooo much homework, thus the title: The Homework Tzar. But, it's worth it...
