Introduction to Linear Algebra for Applied Machine Learning with Python
Linear algebra is to machine learning as flour to bakery: every machine learning model is based in linear algebra, as every cake is based in flour . It is not the only ingredient, of course. Machine learning models need vector calculus, probability, and optimization, as cakes need sugar, eggs, and butter. Applied…

Has AI already killed self-help nonfiction books?
My head has been spinning after getting a spreadsheet roughly a week ago. Before we dive into my dirty laundry, let’s state the obvious: millions of people have a vague sense that AI is changing things. And LLMs sure are convenient for getting answers quickly. My team and I use Claude and other tools daily. […]
