A friend approached me with an "unpopular opinion" regarding the worldwide famous intro to Machine Learning course by Andre Ng.

His opinion: "shit is boring AF and so is the teacher"

Honestly, I loved it, i think it is a really good intro to the actual intuition(pun/reference intended) to the area. I specially like how it cuts down the herd in terms of the people that stick with it and the people that don't, as in "math is too hard. All i want is to create A.I" <---- bye Felicia.

Even then, i think that the idea that Andrew Ng is boring is not too far from reality. I love math, i am by no means a natural, but with pen and paper in front of me and google I feel like i can figure out and remember anything, i do it out of sheer obsession and a knack for mathematical challenges. That is what kept me sane through the course. Other than that I find it hard to disagree, even if it was not boring for me.

Anyone here thinks the course was fucking boring as well? As in, the ones that have taken it.

Tried the Andrew NG thing 6 times.

You read that right. 6. six.

Failed 7 times. Statistically, i failed.

*no comebacks here, I don't know machine Learning so I am getting 0 fucks from my current girlfriend, and you said if I play guitar, I'll have her. FUCK NO.*

I've nearly completed Machine learning Andrew Ng course from Coursera and now I am confused what to do next. Suggestions would be useful.

i want to start machine learning course.
How is coursera's ML by Andrew Ng??
Is it good to start with that course or do u have any other suggestions??

I am interested in Machine learning and don't know how to proceed. there are tons of courses on udemy, Coursera, udacity etc..
I am doing Coursera machine learning by Andrew Ng and didn't know what to do next. Suggestions will be helpful.
Btw I am doing Machine learning to implement it in Android.

Is it just me or everyone takes atleast twice or sometimes even five times the duration specified to complete a MOOC.? I have been doing Andrew NG Coursera machine learning for almost two years now.!

Thoughts on Andrew Ng? I’ve been debating taking his machine learning course
