If apple made Siri impressive then less people would need apps. Less apps = less revenue.

If you workout your back more often it should take care of you back pain(unless you have some type of injury). If your back is used to pulling weight then keeping you upright in you seat shouldn't be an issue. Do some bent over rows, lat pull downs, cable rows, pull-ups, etc. It shouldn't take more that 30 minutes once a week.

I must be an outlier because I love the Magic Mouse. I usually lay my whole arm flat on my desk. Since the mouse doesn’t cause my wrist to arc I don’t get carpal tunnel. Big win there.

I also rely heavily on swiping between desktops and I find the mouse works great for that. My one gripe would be the charging port placement being on the bottom. Charging up to a days charge doesn’t take very long but it is annoying to have to stop coding to charge it.

I started with Andrew Ng's Coursera class. There are 5 different courses and I went through the first course and 3/4 through the 4th on conv nets. I would say he does a really good job of explaining the basics but the code is a little dated as AI is moving so fast.

I'm a few weeks in to Fast.ai and the professor keeps it high level and has more focus on application than theory. You jump straight into working on image classification which is broken down into clear concise steps that gives you some confidence moving forward. If you do take the course make sure to plug in your own data and get a feel for how everything works before jumping to the next video.

I would say its good to have some knowledge of the basics, so watch a few weeks worth of Andrews course while it's still free(7 day trial). Skip over the programming assignments because they are too low level and verbose. Then when you think you have a good sense how things work jump over to Fast.ai and start coding.

I’m working on a technical analysis alert site for cryptocurrencies. There are a few out now, but they are limited to a few TA algorithm’s and a handful of intervals.

I’m aiming to offer as many algorithms/candle intervals as I can and make them fully customizable. Also implementing a screener and the ability to test your alerts through papertrading with historical data.
