  One Chapter a Day Cycle

  If one is following the cycle of learning One Chapter a day, isnt Thursday - Shabbos the Lo Sasei of sefer H'Mitzvos?

  I see Rabbi YY class is scheduled as recording live on Yesodei Hatorah Ch 1.

  Is he going ahead of the scheduled cycle?

  The significance of the Rambam's codification of Torah

  With respect to  the comment asked about the Rambam 

  Aside from the obvious it may be helpful to note that :

   If anyone has any question as to its significance, consider thinking how even in this day of ArtScroll, when finishing daf yomi on Shabbos ( Considering that there are probably more people who learn the daf today then there were people learning at the time of the Rambam) which laws are remembered from the Talmud - how many people can list the 39 avos melachos. Thereafter,  line them up against people who learned Rambam yomi hilchos Shabbos -- ask them which laws they learned from the Rambam or how many avos melachos they can list.  Consider that (when asdking this question today ) this is a time when we actually have Shulchan Oruch, Rave Shulchan Oruch, Mishna Berurah, Oruch Hashulchan, Shmiras Shabbos K’Hilchasa, Kitzur, Chayey Adam, and the list goes on.  

  In addition, Historically, the Rambam was arguably the tip of the spear against Karaim - whose rules were clearly set forth in the Torah 

   and arguably the Mishneh Torah was exactly what was needed to set forth and explain our Code of Torah Law incorporating the Talmud
