#OpenDataScience community (ods.ai) recently released Open Machine Learning Course. This is a community-driven course, covering #production, #Kaggle (actually #CompetitiveDataScience, but we use this hashtag for the first time), #DL, #RL, #ML and validated on the russian-speaking DS community, which was translated into english.

There are lots of assignments and some competitions during the course. Interactive rating highly motivates and makes it fun to participate.

Next session starts on October 1. Welcome!
