Abandoned in favour ofLittle ML book club!!!

Hellodarkness my old friend 👋
My name is Andrey and this year I have been rejected from every research program, internship, and summer school I applied to.After crying into my pillow, I decided that knowledge can't just be given - you have to take it yourself; so it's time to launch my own summer (ish) school / research-padawan communitywith blackjack and hookers. An educational-research community for the misfits. There'll be deadlines, rigorous homework assignments, and, most importantly, a bunch of equally passionate people right by your side.

More detailed announcement ishere (in English) andhere (in Russian).

This GitHub repo has (or soon will have):

• Links to lectures, books, and other study materials;
• Notes distilled from discussion of completed topics;
• Homework specs plus spoiler-hidden solutions;
• Links to a chat (or chats?) for coordinating in-person meet-ups;
• An Issue for every course we're currently working through.

How to use it:

• Introduce yourself in thewhois thread;
• Pick aninteresting course from the list, subscribe to notifications, and join the calls or face-to-face sessions;
• If the course you crave isn't listed, create your own TODO and rally a crew the same way;
• Hunt for or post research ideashere.
• Subscribe to the most important news and updates

In-person meetups:

• We gather together for in-person nerd outs at the Member's Room ofThe British Library on Thur and Fri usually from 10 AM to 5 PM. Join theTelegram chat orreach out directly if you want to come as a guest and join the gang.

Notes:

• Whenever possible we pick content in English to welcome all the rejected folks, whatever their language skills. Quality still comes first, though. For historical reasons and due to my origin I know some exceptional content that is currently in Russian only. So, you might see a course here and there where we go through a course in Russian. Anyone is more than welcome to join, but you will have to take care of the translation yourself.

Hooray! We've built a home for everyone who didn't get accepted anywhere. Time to ship it to prod-see you on the first calls!
