This is a weekly Study Group for anyone who wants to improve their coding abilities. You will be able to code quietly, get help, help others, & learn. People of all identities are welcome.
We offer two weekly 'workshops': (1) Deep Learning & (2) Introductory Python. We use the term workshop loosely - meaning all the people in the room are working on the same thing with Sean Farley's guidance. The best way to find out what this means is to show up & experience it! Also join the Slack channel (see below) & check out Sean's bio https://www.linkedin.com/in/seanmfarley/ & website www.Farley.io.
==================================================================
No workshops this week. Study group only.
Workshops will be back Jan 6.
