Jeremy says you learn best when you read the questionnaire first. Is this the questionnaire for lesson 1?

To anyone that might feel a bit uncomfortable with the top down learning methods:

I had written extensively about my struggles in “How not to do fastai”, I cover my pains of someone who studied in university-of how difficulty it was to learn something in top down fashion :smiley:

We had also shared this in a “reverse” interview where Jeremy kindly interviewed me. I hope this helps :pray:

Thanks for your introduction. I saw both ‘bird.png’ and ‘bird.jpg’ in the presentation earlier. Just wanted to point it out.

Is there somewhere I can get more info on the project which used recurrence plots as input to DL? (mentioned by Jeremy in the lecture just now; I missed if there was a reference)

On the the topic of frameworks: I would love to hear how you feel about the JAX ecosystem and if you had a chance to play with it.

Thanks in advance!

Both of those examples are mentioned in the fastbook (nothing explicitly mentioned tonight)

Can someone explain how AdamW code is implemented in fastai?

That chai feeling when you see Jeremy sharing new Kaggle notebooks. :pray: :smiley:

That even more chai feeling when you realise he is 4 medals away from becoming a Notebooks grandmaster so we might get 4 more tutorials :pray:
