I’ve been going to Reddit over and over because Lemmy doesn’t have the same machine learning, data science communities that Reddit has . Does anyone know of any communities?

    I’m not trying to sound smarmy, but you can try starting up a community that you’re looking for yourself and seeing if conversations spring up to address the lack. If the user base is large enough to support what you’re looking for, I’d expect others to be looking for the same thing you are.

    In addition to your active search for established communities, of course.

      I would love to do that . It’s just that I find myself incapable and also I’m just a student right now , making a community would mean being some sort of an expert no?
      But yeah I’ll absolutely love to do that some day.

        It’s basically just one button. There’s a podcast I like and there wasn’t a community so I just started one and had the first post up within a couple minutes.

        Just make it clear what kind of community you’re starting in community info throw a couple questions or posts related to what you’re interested to up there and see if anyone bites.

        You don’t need any technical knowledge to start a lemmy community, It isn’t like starting an instance. It’s just starting a group within whatever instance you’re part of already. And all the basic tools are already there.

          Thank you very much. And yes I’ll definitely think about it. Although I still wonder 🤔 if I’ll be able to give it time but I’ll make one if I can make some time. I’m sure there are many other new Lemmy users who would love a programming community. Thanks for the pointers .

            For sure. I mean I created that community and I basically give it no time at all haha, I’m just starting it up for fun and throw up posts when I feel like it and hope that eventually some people get interested.

          Ohh 😭 okay . Alright I will ask a few friends who also would love to collaborate. We recently worked on a GAN and we’re looking for resources . Thanks for the advice I’ll definitely think about it.

              Why would you think I was sad? Lmao 😂 Nah . I love my major. Been topping classes since childhood. You can say that I’m aware of the fact that there are people who might know more than me. Which makes me think if I’m still a student then maybe I should learn from them first.

    FreeCodeCamp is beyond dope. I love their Javascript course as it is graded and fantastic. I still love JS for basic scripting and calculation and random other stuff

        If you’re on Mac too, I would recommend CodeRunner as a side tool thats really well developed and can IDE-run almost any language. Its awesome and a great tool I use constantly
