Mount Stupidity is the peak of overconfidence greatly outpacing your competency level. So, falling off is essentially being humbled by expreiences that make you realize you do not know as much as you think you do, and your confidence takes a major dive as a result.
Hey! This is my blog post thanks for reading! At my peak I spent roughly 4h a day on math academy because I wanted to get 100+ XP. I've brought it down to about 2h a day since I'm also teaching myself python for my goal of being a MLE in the future.
Yeah! Unfortunately at the time I had gotten laid of from work so I had extra time just not extra $ to keep paying monthly subscription, also some courses still said coming soon at least the ones I wanted to take when I was taking M4ML.
Good Luck with M4ML its a great course! Covers a lot, I was impressed, wish there was some videos or more visuals but it doesn't hurt to use youtube. I took maybe 7 pages of notes on my github and each over 4000-8000 lines (I used the notes to do the step by step exercises it was easier for me to type notes and do the exercises on computer than pen and paper this is what I used to do).
I take the notes because I will probably forget, but I think its key to always be learning and keep practicing even when your done the course.
Once I get hired again I will def take Discrete Mathematics. In the mean time I've just read books on ML and LLMs, free online courses, youtube videos etc.
I understand the feeling. You'll get another job soon and be back to crushing math problems on math academy. Thanks I'm excited for M4ML a lot. I feel like I'll experience math in a way I never have before. Would you be willing to share your github of notes?
