Just purchased the new book and it is awesome. Looking forward to interacting with the group

Can you please make the asia/europe zoom call to have a registration page?

It helps in putting it in the calendar.

Thanks
Ganesh

@init_27 is there a separate slack channel or thread for the US group? I couldn’t find reference to it on MLT slack… I’d gladly help lead some sessions if needed

Hi Is there a Study Group for Europe? Thanks, Ana

Kantulaev · August 28, 2020, 11:03pm

One more to Europe🇷🇺

init_27 · August 29, 2020, 4:24am

Done!

No, same channel to encourage everyone to learn together.

Thanks for the suggestion, would love to work with you in hosting these, if that’s okay

@anasustic, @Kantulaev please let me know of the calls above don’t work for you, although I think the APAC call timings should be suitable for Europe.

Thanks!

anasustic · August 29, 2020, 5:11am

Thanks so much @init_27 for your kind reply.
I just ordered the book but I cannot make the Sessions at the offered times. Saturday or Sunday evening for EU zone would be fantastic.

init_27 · August 29, 2020, 5:57am

No worries, please feel free to join the text channels for discussions or the last 30 min for zoom discussions-if that works.

Personally, I don’t think I’ll be able to host another session, I’m hosting ~16 hours of meet-ups on weekends

You could also think about a group for your region if there’s interest!

anishjain · August 30, 2020, 12:04pm

hey i am on zoom meeting but no body is responding

KevinB · August 30, 2020, 11:57pm

I believe you were 12 hours early to the meeting. The Sunday session is 5-7 PM PT.

anasustic · September 1, 2020, 1:18pm

@init_27 Thanks for your kind answer. Can you please explain which text channels you are referring to? Is that what you are referring to the MLT slack channel? If yes, which one?

cberkner · September 3, 2020, 9:01pm

@init_27 I’m interested in joining the Sunday 5pm PT study group. Thanks for putting it together!

You’ll be on Lesson 2 this Sunday, yes?

And the zoom link is https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZwpd-mqpzsjE9KmYH-sXg9MGwoSYPhtq8uZ , correct?

init_27 · September 4, 2020, 2:22am

@cberkner Thanks for double checking.

We’ll be on chapter-2 (Lecture-2 does have a good overlap, but we’re following the book)

For the zoom link, the ones linked on top are latest (repeated across all meet-ups)

anasustic · September 22, 2020, 6:35am

Hi All, I just received my book today

init_27 · September 22, 2020, 7:47am

Looking forward to seeing you in either group

yogyamodi · November 12, 2020, 5:35pm

Are there any plans for another round of such amazing reading sessions? I just discovered this thread…
@init_27

init_27 · November 12, 2020, 6:06pm

None by me. We’ll be moving onto: FastChai and Kaggle: Group based Projects (Tentative-starting Nov 21)

Subbu · November 19, 2020, 2:13am

@init_27 Do you plan to have another study group post Group based projects.I just started with 2020 Part1 of this course and having this study group really helps me

init_27 · November 19, 2020, 2:39am

One is starting this weekend!

Please see: FastChai and Kaggle: Group based Projects (Tentative-starting Nov 21)

shev.m · January 10, 2021, 1:24pm

Was there any progress on cluster_columns? I can’t find it anywhere in the fastai library.
