Not a question, But a small advice about this console tutorial

As the tutor might not notice, the prompt line actually appear at the bottom of the video sometimes, this will not cause a problem if I did not move my mouse around(As I turn the subtitle on). Because the subtitle may occasionally block the prompt line. So please consider this tiny issue when making new tutorial. Thank you

I agree, sometimes in some courses, some instructors type really low and it is hard to read what they are typing when we have the subtitles on.

I noticed that too. It's not just typing really low. It's also the placement of the subtitles, which often blocks the main points when the instructor chooses to highlight/emphasize a particular idea.

I like to pause so I can take notes and compare the teacher's notes. There's a few other suggestions, but I think I'll submit a suggestions via email so this comment isn't off-track.

This might be a newer feature, but you can actually click and drag the subtitle text to a different part of the video! I feel like the Treehouse teachers are generally really good about keeping their typing higher on the screen, but in those instances where something is blocked, just pause and move it up.
