Ok... 
damn didn't know google translate could do that!!! That will make my travels a LOT easier

Machine learning will teach you to create programs like this?
machine learning is the "brain" behind the app
There are a host of services you can use in an app:
Computer vision
Object recognition
etc
Check out this link, try putting in some urls to images and see how Microsoft uses ML and AI for their Cognitive Services.

That's not true. We have one Ph D. A few masters and all bachelors. Most are not math majors.
Didn't have the time. Local Agent was busy. 
Just got a few pics of the island as we sailed by.

ok cool
Good drop!! 299 a month 6 months? I wonder if I could do this along with a full time job.
yup!
I'm getting resumes from mofo with Art degrees and doing certs in machine learning/data science
white people are jumping over this shit

Just got signed up for this. I previously was taking tutorials and courses on Datacamp, Pluralsight, and Coursera to get a background for this. Now I feel like I'm ready to jump in. I'll report back in a few months while I'm in the program.
I decided to go the Nanodegree plus in Machine Learning....
Awesome congrats!!!
Check in from time to time especially when you feel like you are hitting a learning plateau

I definitely will brotha! I'm excited to do this.
Do you think I'm doing too much by still doing the interactive exercises from Datacamp along with Udacity?
Also, how did the white folks with the art degrees fair when interviewing after getting their certs? Im just curious.

No collar workers signing up for this shit.
If they can do it, @badboyyawdie can do it.
If you have no side projects outside of the course curriculum, that's a negative
Not doing too much, once you focus on finishing and after building a portfolio of mini projects
white folks come in entitled and i don't play that
It's one thing to say you pivoted your career, you have actively worked to stay relevant and do something you feel passionate about e.g. built these side projects
It's a whole other thing to come in as if I owe you a job because you got a cert
Entitlement is a helluva drug!
There's a Hackathon that's in my area where the data science meet up group paired with a research lab to work on datasets for machine learning a gene therapy project. If I contribute to that, how would that look in a project portfololio?
It's also a project that is close to my area of study and interest.
As we spoke about a few years ago, I can definitely see the impact in the Biopharma
Like I said, I check in to let y'all know my progress. Once I'm done fam, I'll pick your brain on the best way to break into the job market with this and ask what types of projects hiring managers may be looking for from candidates.
Most definitely man
I'm here to help......
Your contribution will look good.
Go to github and they have open datasets
AWS also has open datasets, opendata.gov
Practice with those as well

Update:
I just completed my first month of the Nanodegree from Udacity.
What I learned during this time has been how to network with others in the programming world on how to help one another in advancing your knowledge base and learning. The programming community is a very generous community and works on reciprocity and paying it forward.
I have had to tackle a decent learning curve because what I thought I knew about Python was very little. However, again, the community from GitHub and Slack gave great resources to fill in the gaps of knowledge.
Sidenote: I've been very busy also with interviewing for new jobs in my own industry and finally got something that not only pays more but is more conducive to learning a new skillset like I'm trying to do with the Machine Learning Nanodegree.
The mentors are OK for the program, but I find that the online community is more helpful.
I also found that other resources like DataCamp or Coursera/Pluralsight work in tandum and can help fill in those gaps I mentioned before.
Once you start playing around with the data it becomes addicting.
Kaya: As of right now, do you think it's necessary to start looking/learning about SQL databases and Hadoop? Also, I know I will eventually learn R, but should I start to do this along with what I am learning pertaining to machine learning in Python?
Basically, do you focus and specialize or try to learn as much as possible?

great update Bro....
Right now I'm doing LSTM on time series data
I would say focus.
Python is sufficient, you do NOT need to know R
PySpark will handle streaming data to Apache Spark
Hadoop is a has been and you could always learn that shit in a few days (Pig, Hive).
Look into bigml.com for pre-built models
Congrats on the new job as well!!!!
Thanks for the update.
