I'm in the process of transitioning from my current career in teaching to the NLP career via the Python path and while I've been learning on my own for about three months now I've found it a bit too slow and wanted to see if there's a good course (described in the title) that's really worth the money and time investment and would make things easier for someone like me?

One important requirement is that (for this purpose) I've no interest in exclusively self-study courses where you are supposed to watch videos or read text on your own without ever meeting anyone in real-time.

Like, that's the number one thing for me, I've already got a ton of recorded courses which I'm going through (very slowly), so I really want to see if there's something for me like a course with real people interacting with me either in a group or 1on1 environment, as I'd prefer that way more than studying completely on my own. I'm not against self learning (I'm doing that anyways), but I want to see what a more proper course would do for me.

Unfortunately I'm an expat who lives in the Vietnamese countryside so I need a comprehensive online course with tutors/classes that brings real results and not just some shady bootcamp.

What's Bluesky? First time hearing that

[-] SurpriZe@lemm.ee 1 points 6 days ago

Artichoke is the ultimate choice without a morsel of doubt. Any other answer is wrong because of that.

I know of preplexity, Bing chat, web search on Poe, kagi. Not sure if Gemini 1.5 Pro uses search?

Curious about what model is best to use on my RTX 3080 + Ryzen 5 3600 since I've just found out about this.

I'm looking to get my first subscription of a machine learning model and I've been using POE for a while but I'm not sure if paying for it would be better than paying for a GPT subscription. I almost never use them to generate images, mostly for help with my business and some programming.

I also want my wife to be able to use the same account when I start paying for it.

I'm not sure what the benefits of each are and which would outweigh.

I've researched the topic and I understand that the general advice is that it's best to learn on your own. However, I'd like to see Lemmy's recommendations regarding websites where you can book programming (Python/R) sessions with a personal tutor online, ideally if you have used the service yourself. I mostly need it to maintain my motivation and learn regularly instead of sporadically.

As a lifelong Windows user I've just for the first time switched to Ubuntu and I'm learning how to navigate the system but I haven't found an easy way to update my Carbon's X1 Gen 6 BIOS from its hard disk and would appreciate any advice.

I'd be also happy to hear what I should do as a newcomer to Ubuntu to make my experience with it better and have an easier time overall.

I've just recently transitioned from Windows to Linux as a lifelong user and I can't for the life of me find a way to type with my voice. Ive tried some scripts and apps but I couldn't make it work after trying for a few days straight.

I mostly need it in Firefox but it'd be nice to have it systemwide.

I'm using ThinkPad Carbon X1 Gen 6 so Whisper AI is out of question as it requires a graphics card.

What could you recommend?

[-] SurpriZe@lemm.ee 9 points 3 months ago

I drive in the middle

[-] SurpriZe@lemm.ee 7 points 4 months ago

I already have one drive. It's installed in my PC. Why would I need another?

[-] SurpriZe@lemm.ee 8 points 5 months ago

Thanks! Solid advice. Unfortunately no sailing clubs here but I'll see if I can meet up with some sailors and try out a boat or two.

[-] SurpriZe@lemm.ee 11 points 5 months ago

That's pretty much it ๐Ÿ˜‚

Solved. Thanks!

[-] SurpriZe@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago

Well said. The world is unequal and the rich in 1st world countries still try to milk the 3rd world no matter what, mercilessly. We just repay in kind. ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

[-] SurpriZe@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago

Thanks. Appreciate the honesty.

What book would you recommend these days? I want it to become my main profession. I'm a future expat so I'm looking for a way to sustain myself in Europe. I will be looking for an IT-related job, in case this info could help you recommend something fitting.
