I like doing data science courses for fun. These days I am reading CS 229 mathematics and a book Python Machine Learning. Once in a while I get tired of coding in JS, or adding things to side projects; and then I like doing simple learning, just for the sake of learning and trying to understand (no strings attached). I like the maths part of data-science and maybe would pursue it as a theoretical endeavor. Or just repeat what people have posted on GitHub and see the results - like kids soldiering circuits. It would be fun to take part in some Kaggle competitions next year, around healthcare. Back in 2014, I spent some time working on an SVM classifier for news.
