Hi, I am Birgit, a software developer from Germany, who wants to get into ML. Up to now I have only included AI in my apps, but now I want to find out how Machine Learning really works and what is behind it. I decided to start with my weakest point: Math. I started the Specialization a week ago and now I am knee-deep into linear Algebra. I am looking for people who are also taking this specialization/courses so we can look out for and motivate each other so everybody gets to finalize the specialization. I find it somewhat hard to learn “on my own”. Get active and send me a message!
yeah, would love to connect. I have completed basic linear algebra course and now I have jumped now in this specialization
Hi sami! That’s great! Nice to meet you. I am new to this community. Do you know if there is a way to have private chats like on discord, or is everything here public?
…
(Added later) Never mind, I think I found it.
Where you prefer, I think discord would be best
Let’s stay here for a while longer. Maybe we find some more people who are interested. Then we can form a study group and decide what tool works for everybody. Is that ok with you?
Alright, great idea
You can have a private conversation using the “Message” tool. You can add multiple people to a Message session.
Today, I will continue week 2 in my Linear Algebra course. When I see the videos, all seems so easy and when I try to solve the exercises on my own, it gets real hard for me.
Will you study today? What’s the topic your working on now? Also tell me something about yourself. Where are you located and what’s your day job?
Let’s chat using “Message” tool
Hi Are you there? I’m currently stuck on week 2
Hi Sami, I’m currently out of town until Saturday. I’ll get back to you then.
Hi! Nice to meet you. I have started probability and statistics for machine learning and data science, where I am the weakest and my work is closely relevant. If you begin this part of the course, let me know. Would love to connect. Thanks.
Hi, I’ve completed Linear algebra course, now I’m on module 1 of Calculus
Nice to meet you Fatema! You write that your work is closely relevant the probability and statistics course. I am curious, what are you working?
At the moment I am having a hard time with algebra…
Hi Sami, wow! your a speedy learner! I am still stuck in week 2 and had to ask my son to help me understand some things. Sorry, I didn’t reply earlier, I was on a short holiday with my family and man - it was sooo hard to get back to the course knowing how it challenges me. But I did and I am proud of it. So should you be. How do you find Calculus?
Hi TMosh, I want to start the learning group. I want to include some learners who are interested. Can I create a messaging group (if yes, can you please guide me?) or do I always have to add all the persons one by one?
You have to individually add each member to a private message thread.
Understood. Thank you!
Thanks. Nice to see you again. Hope you enjoyed summer. I believe you can finish linear algebra. Module 1 of Calculus is easy like that of linear algebra, may be difficulties are ahead. Only the courage of “Not Giving Up” literally overcomes these.
