I found this study plan very useful for me. https://www.analyticsvidhya.com/blog/2017/01/the-most-compre...

Provides a very good idea of the courses required and their time frame. I roughly followed along this path but took "Analytics Edge" https://www.edx.org/course/analytics-edge-mitx-15-071x-3 for introduction into ML algorithms.

You can also dive in first and then cover the math behind ML, by taking Andrew Ng's courses. https://www.coursera.org/learn/machine-learning https://www.coursera.org/specializations/deep-learning

I have read many of his books and listened to his video talks with his followers while I was in Chennai. The "Commentaries on Living" series are easy to read and my favorites. http://www.jiddu-krishnamurti.net/en http://www.jiddu-krishnamurti.net/en/commentaries-on-living-...

His teachings are just the opposite of Gita (and other Hindu scriptures), which prescribes caste based society as the act of God.

I moved on from his abstract teachings to practical life changing works of Osho, Ambedhkar and finally to E.V.Ramasamy (Periyar).

Gita doesn't say that God created the caste system. The four "varnas" are loosely translated as "castes" but that is not quite so. A varna is defined by an individual's occupation. Those who teach are brahmanas, those engaged in ruling the kingdom and protecting people are kshatriyas, those involved in business are vaishyas and those performing jobs like construction, farming etc. are shudras.

It is unfortunate that many consider a "varna" to be the same as "caste". The latter is a degeneration found aplenty in the Indian society whereas the former is simply a way of classifying people based on their occupation.

There is no parallel to the teachings of Gita. In 18 chapters, it covers all aspects of God, universe and individual and also the means of attaining liberation.

> There is no parallel to the teachings of Gita..

Well there is Ashtavakra Gita, personally I liked the asthavakra more as its context is more refined.

Yes, Ashtavakra Gita is a vedantic text that focuses on describing the absolute truth.

Bhagavad Gita is more versatile since it covers the many aspects of action (karma), devotion (bhakti) and knowledge (jnana). The highest truth about the Self is described in a few verses that are sprinkled throughout the text and many other aspects such as creation of universe, modes of mind, action, renunciation, imbibing godly qualities, shunning demonic qualities etc. are all found in it. Shankaracharya's commentary on it makes it very special too.

>His teachings are just the opposite of Gita (and other Hindu scriptures), which prescribes caste based society as the act of God.

Huh? That's not really what's in the Gita. If anything it's usually read as an argument against that.

Not all calories are the same. For example, body excretes excess dietary fat, but stores excess carbohydrates adding 4 times the amount of water to it. You can find the details in any Paleo Diet related site.

I prefer to stick to something published on pubmed.

I have used Angular in multi-page application, using Angular as a better JQuery in Spring MVC application. This setup worked well combining the best of both frameworks. Angular provided two-way binding, rendering templates (in loop), dialog box interactions, better AJAX, etc. Angular based component libraries provided calendar controls, dynamic tables, etc. Spring took care of the routing pages, handling UI requests and returning JSON response from services.

I think we should not discount this style of building a web app. I've also had success with it.

You need to think hard about whether you really need a SPA for something complex, or whether you can go back to the server completely in some instances.

Did you use a templating engine at all?

//As a comparison, India, which teaches Hindi and English in school, both of which much simpler scripts than Han, has achieved an average of 74% literacy rate in the most recent census.// The reason for lower literacy rates in India may not anything to do with how complex their scripts are. Elites just passed on their Sanskrit scriptures orally among themselves to exclude others from learning them. Their laws also denied education to the working class. In modern times, many children just can't go to school for many reasons. There are no schools accessible or affordable, they may need to fetch firewood, water, may need to take care of cattle, family members, and so on. (My mom curse their parents to this day, because they stopped her school in her 4th grade, to take care of her baby sister). In south India, there are free meal schemes for school children to alleviate these problems to some extent.

There is an Indian Facebook group about Paleo diet, where dozens if not hundreds of people followed simple LCHF diet and reversed their type 2 diabetics and got type 1 under control among other improvements. Few physicians also got cured and they started advocating the diet. These doctors are working towards getting Indian Diabetes Association to recognize LCHF diet as a viable remedy.

You can see many medical reports posted by the members for your reference. https://www.facebook.com/groups/tamilhealth/

Survived a complete rewrite for a client just now.

The previous team blindly relied on a single method from Spring framework's RestTemplate for every rest service calls with SAP backend.

    ResponseEntity<T> exchange(String url,
        HttpMethod method,
        HttpEntity<?> requestEntity,
        Class<T> responseType,
        Object... uriVariables)
        throws RestClientException

(ref: https://docs.spring.io/spring/docs/current/javadoc-api/org/s...)

This forsed them to create object models structured to match the complicated and inconsitent request and response JSON strings that SAP used, instead of creating the objects modeled after the business domains. The result was no surprise was a disaster and the client wasted five months with them and I had to redo and complete the project still on time.

I still see many teams make their function signatures in Java so convoluted like below and don't know what hit them.

    interface ToDoService {
        ListToDoResponse listToDo(ListToDoRequest request) throws ListToDoException;
        AddToDoResponse addToDo(AddToDoRequest request) throws AddToDoException;
        .. and so on ..
    }

Can you shed some light on how to best solve this problem? I'm pretty much in the same boat with a restful service I depend on.

Calories in calories out, hypothesis is proven wrong by many people.

In a Low Corb High Fat diet, excess dietary fat is burned out and excreted. On the other hand High Corb diet, corbs are stored as fat causing obesity.

I have personally seen many people who have transformed their heath with this basic understanding. Ref: http://thepaleodiet.com/stop-counting-calories-start-assessi...
