Here's what you'll hear when you first get into machine learning.

- Neural networks
- Loss
- Weights
- Biases
- Epochs
- Neurons
- Optimizers
...

It can get very confusing really fast!

Here are some of the terms you should know about.
(I wish I had this before)

🧵👇

These terms won't mean anything unless you know what Machine learning is all about.

> Machine learning is the process of making a program which allows a computer to learn from data.

The data could be anything, images, audio or even text.

In machine learning we use something called a neural network, this is essentially an imitation of the human brain.

> Neural Networks are a digital imitation of the neurons you see in the human brain.

In these neural networks, data flows through them and each neuron (the circle) has a numerical value which will change.

> The value of a neuron gets changes to something which is close to what we want each time the data passes through the neural network.

Think of the neurons as dials on a lock, you have to tune every dial to open the lock.

It is almost impossible for a human to tune thousands of dials like these, but a computer certainly can.

This is a beginner's guide on mining cryptocurrencies.

🧵 👇🏻

Mining 101

Typically, when you transfer money using a service like Paypal, they take a small cut for facilitating the exchange.

In cryptocurrencies, people like you and me act as Paypal and facilitate exchanges of cryptocurrency. We get a cut for this just like Paypal did.

In order to make these transactions happen, our computers need to do some calculations which requires a lot of computational power.

A GPU or a Graphics Processing Unit which is typically marketed for gaming workloads can be used to mine cryptocurrencies.

Why do you need a GPU?

Today, there are so many miners that the "difficulty" of mining cryptocurrencies has skyrocketed, which basically means it takes a lot of computational power to mine crypto which GPUs can provide and CPUs cannot.

(❗ This is an oversimplification)

If you are interested in the inner workings of how blockchain and cryptocurrency, then I highly suggest that you read this thread by @oliverjumpertz

What actually is a Blockchain?

Bitcoin is breaking record after record, but there must be more to the technology than just crypto, or not? Well, we can take a look at the underlying technology first to understand what it actually provides to us.

Here's how I got started with my first machine learning project and you can too.
Let's take a look.

(This thread will take from zero to being a hero in machine learning, trust me)

(1 / 22)
🧵👇

Getting started with your first machine learning project might actually much easier than it seems, if I can do it, certainly anyone can.

I did not use:
- Any Math
- An expensive computer
- Complex programming concepts

(2 / 22)

Here's what I did use:

- A free GPU on Google Colab
- Python
- TensorFlow
- Numpy
- Pandas
- Kaggle
- Scikit-Learn
- Google
- StackOverFlow

(3 / 22)

This project was actually a Kaggle challenge based on the MNIST dataset which is a collection images of 70,000 hand written digits.

You can find the dataset here👇

Which libraries do you really need to get started with Machine Learning and why?

🧵👇

First and foremost, make sure that you have nailed the fundamental concepts of Python because machine learning requires a lot of programming!

(2 / 19)

If you know these topics, then you are good to go with machine learning in Python

- Object-oriented programming in Python:Classes,Objects,Methods
- Lists & List functions
- List comprehension
- List slicing
- String formatting
- List,Dictionaries & Tuples

(3 / 19)

Now, let's understand what popular python machine learning libraries do.

We will talk about👇
- TensorFlow (+ Keras)
- PyTorch
- Pandas
- Numpy
- Matplotlib
- SciKit Learn
- Seaborn

(4 / 19)

Now let's cover the libraries that you have to learn (at least the basics) for machine learning

1. Pandas

Pandas is a python library that allows you to store and read data from spreadsheets ( .csv, .xlsv files ) in structures called Dataframes.

#தினம்_ஒரு_திருவாசகம்
தொல்லை இரும்பிறவிச் சூழும் தளை நீக்கி
அல்லல் அறுத்து ஆனந்தம் ஆக்கியதே – எல்லை
மருவா நெறியளிக்கும் வாதவூர் எங்கோன்
திருவாசகம் என்னும் தேன்

பொருள்:
1.எப்போது ஆரம்பித்தது என அறியப்படமுடியாத தொலை காலமாக (தொல்லை)

2. இருந்து வரும் (இரும்)

3.பிறவிப் பயணத்திலே ஆழ்த்துகின்ற (பிறவி சூழும்)

4.அறியாமையாகிய இடரை (தளை)

5.அகற்றி (நீக்கி),

6.அதன் விளைவால் சுகதுக்கமெனும் துயரங்கள் விலக (அல்லல் அறுத்து),

7.முழுநிறைவாய்த் தன்னுளே இறைவனை உணர்த்துவதே (ஆனந்த மாக்கியதே),

8.பிறந்து இறக்கும் காலவெளிகளில் (எல்லை)

9.பிணைக்காமல் (மருவா)

10.காக்கும் மெய்யறிவினைத் தருகின்ற (நெறியளிக்கும்),

11.என் தலைவனான மாணிக்க வாசகரின் (வாதவூரெங்கோன்)

12.திருவாசகம் எனும் தேன் (திருவா சகமென்னுந் தேன்)

முதல்வரி: பிறவி என்பது முன்வினை விதையால் முளைப்பதோர் பெருமரம். அந்த ‘முன்வினை’ எங்கு ஆரம்பித்தது எனச் சொல்ல இயலாது. ஆனால் ‘அறியாமை’ ஒன்றே ஆசைக்கும்,, அச்சத்துக்கும் காரணம் என்பதால், அவையே வினைகளை விளைவிப்பன என்பதால், தொடர்ந்து வரும் பிறவிகளுக்கு, ‘அறியாமையே’ காரணம்

அறியாமைக்கு ஆரம்பம் கிடையாது. நமக்கு ஒரு பொருளைப் பற்றிய அறிவு எப்போதிருந்து இல்லை? அதைச் சொல்ல முடியாது. அதனாலேதான் முதலடியில், ஆரம்பமில்லாத அஞ்ஞானத்தை பிறவிகளுக்குக் காரணமாகச் சொல்லியது. ஆனால் அறியாமை, அறிவின் எழுச்சியால், அப்போதே முடிந்து விடும்.

RANI NAIKI DEVI AND THE BATTLE OF KASAHRADA

Mohammad Ghori, the young Ghurid Prince conquered Ghaznavids in Afghanistan in the year 1173 CE. He conducted some successful raids into the Indian territory, which even Mahmud Ghazni & the Persians couldn't do.

First&foremost,Ghori invaded states of Multan &Uch in India.After this he turned to southern states of Gujarat &Rajputana.Everybody knows this about Ghori,but what most pple r unaware of is the defeat he suffered at hands of Chalukyan Queen Naiki Devi in 1178 Battle of Kasahrada.

When he marched southwards, his first target was the prosperous fortified town of Anhilwara Patan.
It was the capital of Chalukyas(also known as Solankis of Gujarat) which was established by Vanraj of Chapotkata Dynasty in 8th century.

American historian Tertius Chandler states that it was the 10th largest city in the world at that time. The history of Chalukyas has been written by many historians, but the valour of the Great Queen Naiki Devi remains unsung.

Born to the Kadamba King Paramardin of Goa,Naiki Devi was well trained in sword fighting, horse riding, strategy & every other subject of Statesmanship. She was married to King Ajaypala of Gujarat who sat on throne in 1171CE. Unfortunately,the King died within 4 yrs of his rule.

PETER PADUKAM - THE LEGEND OF MADURAI MEENAKSHI TEMPLE AND A BRITISH COLLECTOR.

A British Collector named Rous Peter was appointed as Collector of Madurai from 1812 to 1828.

Though a Christian by faith, he respected all faiths including Hinduism and also honored local practice

Collector Peter was the temple administrator of the Meenakshi Amman Temple and conducted all his duties with sincerity and honesty and respected the religious sentiments of all people.

Collector Rous Peter respected and treated people of all faiths equally and this noble trait

earned him the popular nickname ‘Peter Pandian'

Goddess Meenakshi Amman Temple was situated between Collector Peter's residence and office.

Everyday he used to go to the office by his horse and while crossing the temple, he got down from his horse, removed the hat and his shoes

and crossed the whole path on his foot.

Through this small gesture he expressed his reverence to the Goddess!

One day there was a heavy downpour in Madurai city and River Vaigai was in spate.

Collector was sleeping in his residence and was suddenly disturbed and woken up by

the sound of anklets and he left his bed to find out from where the sound had came.

He saw a small girl wearing pattuvastrams (silk garments) and precious ornaments and addressing him as 'Peter come this way'.

fascinated by this man, mario cortellucci, and his outsized influence on ontario and GTA politics. cortellucci, who lives in vaughan and ran as a far-right candidate for the italian senate back in 2018 - is a major ford donor...

his name might sound familiar because the new cortellucci vaughan hospital at mackenzie health, the one doug ford has been touting lately as a covid-centric facility, is named after him and his family

but his name also pops up in a LOT of other ford projects. for instance - he controls the long term lease on big parts of toronto's portlands... where doug ford once proposed building an nfl stadium and monorail... https://t.co/weOMJ51bVF

cortellucci, who is a developer, also owns a large chunk of the greenbelt. doug ford's desire to develop the greenbelt has been

and late last year he rolled back the mandate of conservation authorities there, prompting the resignations of several members of the greenbelt advisory

Krugman is, of course, right about this. BUT, note that universities can do a lot to revitalize declining and rural regions.

One thing I've been noticing about responses to today's column is that many people still don't get how strong the forces behind regional divergence are, and how hard to reverse 1/ https://t.co/Ft2aH1NcQt

Trump is a Russian asset, a mob money launderer installed by his mob whoremasters to sow chaos and weaken the US & our allies.

EVERY SINGLE THING HE’S DONE since taking office is to achieve those purposes—that and to enrich himself personally.

[THREAD]

1/ His entire family is part of this. Melania is a fucking crook. Ivanka is a fucking crook. Junior and Gums are fucking crooks. They will all die in prison, except for Kushner, who, if he really *did* trade US intel for money, should be executed for espionage.

2/ Why do you think Trump installs uniquely corrupt & awful people to Cabinet positions? Pruitt, Zinke, Betsy, Rex/Pompeo, Wilbur "Melting Nazi Face" Ross. They are not there to serve us. They are not there to drain the swamp. They are there to BURN THE REPUBLIC DOWN.

3/ Trump steals. He takes taxpayer money—your money and mine—and lines his pockets with it. He exploits his office to make himself richer. This is all he cares about. Why are Republican citizens, you “fiscal conservatives,” not more angry about this? Riddle me THAT, #MAGA.

4/ Matt Whitaker, the human dildo and “acting AG,” was illegally installed to throw a monkey wrench in the Mueller investigation. That’s why they won’t release his financials. He’s fucking bought and sold. He’s going to prison for obstruction.
