In my path to a data engineer, a lot of my time studying has been unfocused because honestly, I wasn't sure what to study. It's hard because people talk to so much about machine learning but there is so much to learn about big data. You have to do so many things before you have

"clean" enough data. A lot of the times I'm overwhelmed with the vast amount of things we have to learn. Is that just me or are there others that feel the same? #DataAnalytics #dataengineering #machinelearning #100DaysOfCode #100DaysOfMLCode

Day 26-29: In the past four days, I have been working on learning spark so can use it to build my first data engineering project. So far it's super hard :) #100DaysOfMLCode #301DaysOfCode #100daysofcode #DataScience

tell me if this is wrong or not. Basically, Hadoop is a system which stores its data in 64 MB files which are replicated into 3 other nodes and these nodes are usually distributed between 2 data racks? The replications make it so that even if some nodes go down, you will always

have the data you need. Is that like a crude overview of Hadoop?
Day 25: Found a great website mode.com/ that teaches you how to use SQL and Python for data analysis. Check it out! Currently doing the SQL course. #100DaysOfMLCode #100daysofcode #301DaysOfCode #MachineIntelligence #DataScience

Is there an alternate to ETL tool to SSIS that runs on macs? #100DaysOfCode #100DaysOfMLCode #301DaysOfCode #DataScience #Data #dataengineering

Day 22-23: For the past two days, I learned tableau. It's been such a useful tool in data visualization. It is very user-friendly yet still super powerful! I definitely see me using this tech in the future and definitely recommend people to learn it after getting matplotlib down!

What does it mean to optimize a neural net? #MachineLearning #100DaysOfMLCode Is it just tuning the hyperparameter randomly or is there a way to take away the randomness? #DataScience #Data

Day 17-20: I had midterms the last couple of days so I wasn't able to post but I have definitely been coding. After studying for my midterms I was able to get to my data science life. I watched @3blue1brown deep learning series. It honestly made the whole neural net "learning"

process very understandable. As I've mentioned before, I think the biggest barrier to entering this field is the jargon. He goes through the material and makes sure someone without data science experience(you still need knowledge of calculus) can thoroughly understand

backprop. Backprop was actually one thing that I didn't get at all looking at other videos. He goes through it conceptually before adding math into it and it really helps with understanding it. #100DaysOfCode #100DaysOfMLCode #301DaysOfCode #MachineLearning #DataScience

Day 16: So as i'm going through @AndrewYNg deep learning course, im have a jargon problem and find myself feeling lost. I think the best way to tackle this is to slow down each video and understand what I'm learning before moving on. Watched one video about 4 times now and

day 15: Today I was going to start deep learning taught by Andrew ng but I realized I had forgotten all my linear algebra so I review the Khan Academy, linear algebra class. I start with the very basics in Vectors. #100DaysOfCode #100DaysOfMLCode #301DaysOfCode #Mathematics

Why do no schools teach students how to learn?? I feel like after watching coursera.org/learn/learning-… I have such a better grasp on how to retain information and stay focused. #learning #DataScience #100DaysOfMLCode #100daysofcode #Data

Day 14: Today I made my first neural net without using any libraries. I was happily surprised that it was all making sense to me. The neural net I made was very simple with a data set of 8 with two different variables. The whole point of the neural net was to determine
