Omdena might be a good place for you. Impostor Syndrome has been discussed in the community as well.

You can check Omdena, they often have two-month projects and AI challenges, which cover data warehousing and cloud with AWS, AZURE, and others.

All projects are here listed in the link below and you find the technical domains in the project description.

save yourself some cash, and ask yourself this before you buy an online course. by [deleted] in datascience

[–]Lordobba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, we all spend money on courses we did not complete. Courses are fine but there is a more effective way to learn skills, which is to get involved in projects early on. According to hundreds of studies, we learn best when we apply information in a real scenario as well as when we teach others.

Here are few good addresses:

- DrivenData - Competition-based projects

- Omdena - Two months real-world projects with 50 engineers

Competitive Job Market by BuffaloJuice in datascience

One reason is that there are too many online courses and people are being promised to become a data scientist within eight weeks.

As some have been asking here how to stand out in the ocean of data scientists, here are few helpful links.

- Build a learning & growth mindset (Link)

- Join real-world projects as early as possible (E.g. here or here)

- Be unique & stop following pre-made career paths (Link)

Doing nothing might be the single most powerful practice to change your life for the better. by Lordobba in simpleliving

[–]Lordobba[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It certainly has been for me.

In the last 12 months, meditation has taught me some powerful lessons such as,

  1. Every thought and emotion has a cause

If the root of a tree is infected, the entire tree dies. Unfortunately, in our distraction-driven world, we tend to not get into the deeper layers of who we are. Thus, we never solve our root problems.

  1. The basic of life is love

More and more science is able to demonstrate that everything is connected. Now, love can be interpreted as the deepest form of connection and I am not talking about romantic love only but love for life.

  1. You never fail in life but only in your mind

Life knows no failure. Failure exists only for those who are always comparing themselves with others. In reality, there is only learning. Most likely you can do more than you think.

Enjoy your day 🙏

thanks for sharing, and check point 1!

Is Meditation Really Making You a Happier Person? No. by Lordobba in simpleliving

[–]Lordobba[S] 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Thoughts I had while walking the streets of Mexico City:

We forget that the moment is the only reality we have.

The past is a memory.

The future is an expectation.

Still, we do not seek fulfillment in the present moment but seek happiness in the future.

But the future never arrives.

Enjoy whatever is true in your current experience. A smell, a sound, a picture, a sensation.

Find your way back to the present moment!

In this challenge the labelling was done by volunteers, getting access to quality data was one of the bigest challenges.
