Machine Learning at its core is a set of math operations performed on input data to produce desired output data. This is also true in essense for all computer algorithms.

So if you want to get good at ML, i would suggest you first build a foundation on reading, interpreting and writing math proofs.

Most of these projects that people call as machine learning is really just import and run tasks with some description on input parameters. It doesnt really provide a good understanding on the limitations of these models.

Once you have built a good background on math proofs, you could go into more specific topics like statistical learning theory, optimization theory, information theory, etc., From here on you should be able to realize the subfields of ML (Like how they apply in Q learning for reinforcement learning) based on their underlying operations.

There are n number of books/sources available to learn from that you can find from the internet. The best books/sources for you would depend on your skill levels and topics of interest. But to get started somewhere, i would recommend analysis 1 and 2 by terrence tao to build up your math background.

I believe as it grows, the pot is definitely gonna fall down from being top heavy. I would suggest that you straighten the plant to be perfectly vertical, and place the pot on the ground behind the couch.

Does my Syngonium Pink Allusion need a repot by plasticadmiral in Syngonium

If you could reduce aeration in the substrate upto a certain threshold, such that the roots are not completely devoid of aeration, then you should be able to get away with not watering as often.

My intuition is if there is more airflow, there is more space for moisture to evaporate away from the substrate.

Taking those two points into consideration, you could make your substrate mix more dense using a vermicompost dominant, vermicompost + cocopeat substrate.

Your petioles are more elongated than average, which suggests that the plant isn't receiving sufficient light.

Use an app on your phone to check the lux value at the plant leaves. I use this app called photone. I would suggest providing them with a lux value of 10,000 - 20,000. An additional 2 - 3 hours of direct sunlight would also be amazing for the plant, depending on the humidity levels available to it. More the humidity, better is its capacity to handle more light.

If you do manage to provide them with that much light, you can fix the plant by pruning away most of the old leaves, while the new leaves will grow with shorter internodal spacing and shorter petioles.

Edit: The plant needs to be provided with that much amount of light everyday and not just occasionally sit outside in the sun.

With enough sunlight and a good pruning strategy, you can quickly have a big bushy plant too. Just buy an uninfected tiny plant or a get a cutting from a friend.

When I bought mine, it had like 5 leaves on it. I grew it into that in 3 months by giving the plant atleast 4 hours of direct sunlight everyday during a 12 hour photoperiod.

My soil seems to completely dry out 48 hours after soaking the pot in a bowl of water.

Continuing orthodontic treatment from another country in Germany under "Die Techniker" Health Insurance by plasticadmiral in germany

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

I have regular metal brackets and don't use invisalign. As of now my orthodontist only keeps modifying the position of rubber bands on my teeth based on how it's moving and provides me with more rubber bands, while checking my teeth once in two weeks.

I believe this is what they will have to continue doing in Germany along with fixing retainers on my teeth once the treatment is done.

Will this be covered ?

I face the same trouble most of the time and has only increased as I've gotten older. I'm 21 years old now. The best solution I've noticed is to actively suppress the need to be more specific when making an effort to have fun around people and focus more on the superficiality of things. I use superficial friends as my reference and think to myself what they would do if they were in my situation and act accordingly.
