2021 Data Science Learning List

This is just personal list, and it will be completely your choice if you follow the tract or choose your own. So for only this article, it will be like a personal mental note, just instead of mental memory, I am saving it on a wordpress blog.

  1. Professional Certificate of Data Science A$1,050

This I would like to complete form edx platform and that to specifically HarvardX instructors. It was recommend by my supervisor (Dr. Kiran Thapaliya). And I turst his judgement on this specical course.

I am aware that it uses R instead of the popular and growing Python or Julia, but most of the reseach universities I was in contact with are stil using R at many Data Analysis. Also, this programme has affiliated certificate rather than the world famous DataCamp which is good(actually excellent) for practice.

2. Data Analysis for Genomix. A$592

I recently went for an online interview where the proejct involved “Blood Methyliation Data.” I was intrested in the concepts and reseach happeing around use of Genetic Data. Thus this course was my choice.

3. Data Analysis for Life Scientist. A$830

I know, I know the above two covers the most fo the topic relevent to be ready for the Data Scientist, but I wanted to fill in the gaps and have hands on experiecne on more projects.

Finally I would like a little bit help form all your readers. The thing is in India we have a saying of “LOG KYA KAHENGE?” translated to “What Will PEOPLE Say?”.

I watnted to use this negative satement into a positive motivation and request you all to keep asking me time to time about my progress like an Indirect Online Supervison. I would do the hardwork, I just need your support to keep me motivated.

I will upload my learing journey vlogs (mostly in Hindi) in on a fresh channel

Online Siminars

There was a day when got to buy a fixed $$ entry to our selected siminars and presentations. Brush up your teeth, get ready and then phisically go & attend the choice of our education centre.

And then came Covid 19.

Online teaching market is so saturated that people offer free samples to their study material to enroll in their cources, experience their university and give you space to try their way of teaching to form a community.

Attached is the list of some good sources to learn some of the few such examples:

(Sometimes all you need is an student email address)

LEARNING LATEX

MATLAB and Deep Learning (August to December 2020)

I will keep updating the list as soon as I find worthy presentations to link to.

See you in next post or next life, whichever is earlier šŸ™‚

Data-Camp 2 Month Free Access

Proof of Method Working on 16th Aug 2020 (Day of Writing this article)

This is a copy of the solution posted by Himanshu Sharma on QUORA

ID https://www.quora.com/profile/Himanshu-Sharma-489

“I myself have taken their Data Science course and i really loved it. With every video they have got so many quizzes to solve which makes you practice every bit out of that course.

You can take free DataCamp subscription through Microsoft Visual Studio account. They provide two months of free subscription which is enough for you to complete at least one of their courses.” Says Himanshu

Just follow these steps to get that for free:

  1. Go to the Visul Studio page from here: Visual Studio
  2. Click on the button that shows Join or Access now.
  3. Sign in with your Microsoft account.
  4. After signing in you will be redirected to the benefits tab where it shows 2 months free datacamp.
  5. Click on activate button and signup on DataCamp.

Enjoy your free subscription and start learning.”

That was the article from QUORA and now my take on it:

Personally even I have tried it and enjoye the two months subscription. And I would recommend it to anyone who would like to learn Programming.

There is another way to get three months free subscription but you will have to create a new ID. As well as Sign up with a GIT HUB STUDNET Account. This option is only available for Students.

You need to create a Git Hub Account for free on the link https://education.github.com/pack

Activate your student pack by uploading the copy of student id.

Then come back to the above link page and activate the Data Camp.

Hope You like these methods.

Untold Story Post 85: Theory of Nothing

Somewhere, sometime in my life, someone said, “If you do nothing, nothing will happen.”

I was amused by the deep thought with what the author has said this. I loved it probably more than you did while reading it now, maybe because I was high on weed.

Now that I am sober and re-think the same above quote, it gives me quite a shock on a daily basis.

Thus every day I wake up.

Make up a Task list.

And do my best to complete the maximum task on this list.

Seldom I hit 100% completion and those days I could would or be able to sleep at night properly.

Rest of the Days I think I did not live my life to the fullest.

Out of the blue, I gazed upon an offer on Gumtree. (gumtree.com.au is a website in Australia where people advertise to sell the things they have). I saw A box of books for AU $ 20. I scrolled the post and thought one day! One day even I will have a library of fiction & nonfiction books, at my house.

Then again in my head, I came upon the same thoughts about the Theory Of Nothing: As if you do nothing. Nothing will happen.

Thus I did something.

And results are the two pictures of this post.

Though a small start but Today I do have a mini library at home.

This task was not on my daily task list but I just followed my instincts or the words of some random stranger in the past which changed my thinking to initiate an action plan in the present.

Reflecting on my day, I think I beat up procrastination, laziness and put on action to execute something beautiful.

Then again when I told this story my cousin with a similar photograph as above, then she said, “Congratulations on Buying them but will you ever be able to read them at all?”

I dogged the question in reply explaining it in Aussi dry humor that “they are part of my retirement plan.”

But in reality, the Theory of Nothing is ringing more like Jingle Bells on a Christmas night.

“If you do nothing, Then Nothing will HAPPEN.”
