Setting Up Your Data Science Environment on Apple Mac Silicon: A Step-by-Step Guide with MLX Installation.

Namast, Will keep this one short and sweet. Boot up your Mac (book, mini, studio, etc.) Go here: https://brew.sh/ What is it? It’s a package manager that lets you install things via terminal easily. Install via terminal by copy pasting their install Homebrew command. We’ll use it to install our Python environment. You can use… Continue reading Setting Up Your Data Science Environment on Apple Mac Silicon: A Step-by-Step Guide with MLX Installation.

I firmly believe that in the darkest timeline people use SQL to do everything from developing apps to creating mission critical artificial intelligence. SQL is easy to pick up and do cool things with, which makes it a good stepping… Continue reading Practical SQL for everybody

Unsupervised machine learning to cluster user data

Ohaio, It is interesting to analyse segments created by algorithms. Product managers and marketers will find it a somewhat unbiased way to make sense of customer data. The algorithms can work well but it helps to have a sufficient grasp of statistics and understand the limitations of each model. I thought it would be useful… Continue reading Unsupervised machine learning to cluster user data
