A Proven Method to Remember Data Science Concepts for as Long as You …

And tools to put the method into practice in the age of AI

The problem with self-learning data science

Every time I want to install a library with Anaconda, the -c part of the command keeps moving around. So, like most people, I google it, sometimes 3-4 times a day:

conda install -c conda-forge library_name

Sounds familiar?

This little example signals a fundamental flaw in the way most of us learn data science and machine learning today: Data science knowledge is cheaper than air, so we don’t take learning it as seriously as we ought to.

We see university students busting their brains to remember so much information to pass exams and tests. If they don’t do well, they will get chucked out from the institution they paid so much for.

As self-taught data scientists, we have none of that pressure. All we have is our self-discipline that keeps persuading us we are doing an excellent job as we watch a YouTube course on our couch.

Our learning processes…
