I've been looking for something like this for a long time. Thank you for sharing! I especially like point number 2. It reduces the amount of meetings I have SIGNIFICANTLY.
Sincerely, thank you for the explanations and youtube video. They were GREAT!

I love it when computer science, programming, or anything tech related gets related with other disciplines. Botony + Algo(Math?) = Beauty

You have described the 2010's for me succinctly. Wow.

I prefer my iPad 9.7 over the Remarkable 2 that I have.

I did not use Paperlike. I used a generic matte screen protector off of Amazon. I had used the matte screen protector for a year and then took it off and got used to the glass feel.

+1 - In app purchase. It was $4.99 before but I think they dropped the price to $2.99. Funny enough, the handwriting recognition is supplied by Nebo.

I still use my iPad Pro 9.7 inch to take notes using Notability. It's useful for just getting thoughts down, keeping my notes digital, and being able to essentially both notebook and books in one device. I absolutely love it! Personally, Notability has been my daily driver. Sometimes I'll use Nebo but now with the Apple Scribble feature, I find myself just writing into the text boxes manually. I've been using the iPad + Pencil since late 2016 and haven't looked back ever since. I also prefer the Pencil over glass. The matte screen protector felt nice but degraded the screen visibility enough to be annoying.

Our team plays https://skribbl.io/ weekly during our "Coffee Break Hour"

It's a fun way to interact, laugh, and find out who says they can't draw but can actually draw. We play with about 8 people, sometimes others join in to just watch or we take turns. Honestly, skribbl has been the closest thing to in-person interactions we have had in a long time. I created the weekly 1-hour coffee break meeting on our calendars @ 3pm local time. Usually water-cooler talk, sometimes video games for the laughs.

The problem mostly lies in other people not wanting to learn. Anecdotally, I've found that people come to me with Excel questions because they want me to do something for them, not because they are generally interested in learning more or bettering their skills.

It's not linked directly in the article but the article does mention the name of the software is "nlp-architect"

+1

Another thing I am curious about is why is there such a price difference? RPiZ - $5 PB - $25

This place is not for the kind of "hackers" you are looking for.

Thank you! First time I have heard of Coursera but this site is pretty awesome.

Thanks for the advice! Just to clarify a bit because I noticed that I wasn't specific enough. I want to know what I should do next, not build the next Siri so to speakI am on my phone but I will check out the links as soon as I get on my PC. Thank you Again!

Student wants a bit of direction

Hey,I am currently finishing my second year of study as a Computer Science Major. About 12 credits away from my AA. Honestly... These programming classes suck. They don't teach me much other than printing out to the screen and getting a bit of input. Maybe a bit of manipulation but that is mostly it. I have tried to do stuff on my own and read through beginner books (Intro/Begginer books on...
