Machine Learning in A Year, by Per Harald Borgen 7wData

This is a follow up to an article Per wrote last year, Machine Learning in a Week, on how he kickstarted his way into machine learning (ml) by devoting five days to the subject. Follow him on Medium and check out his archive. My interest in ml stems back to 2014 when I started reading articles about it on Hacker News. I simply found the idea of teaching machines stuff by looking at data appealing. At the time I wasn't even a professional developer, but a hobby coder who'd done a couple of small projects. So I began watching the first few chapters of Udacity's Supervised Learning course, while also reading all articles I came across on the subject.
