I really enjoyed the first week, and it has been a good motivation to start to learn Julia.
Grant Sanderson's (aka 3blue1brown) lesson on convolutions [1] was simply excellent. Can't wait to see upcoming lessons. Really amazing that MIT is publishing these in parallel to the live course.

- russfink 6y agoI could not find a syllabus.
- 0x008 6y agothe github page only gives this info: Topics include: - Image analysis - Particle dynamics and ray tracing - Epidemic propagation - Climate modeling
- 0x008 6y agoYes! 3blue1brown has an amazing youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYO_jab_esuFRV4b17AJtAw https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCYO_jab_esuFRV4b17AJtAw After watching his videos, I don't want to watch anyone else explain anything technical anymore.
- KenoFischer 6y agoI was impressed by his ability to still use explanatory animations during the live lecture. That seems very hard to pull off so seamlessly.

- melling 6y agoIs there a site where you can run Pluto notebooks rather than running them locally?
- ViralBShah 6y agoNot that I am aware of. We are working towards that possibility on JuliaHub.com, but nothing soon. I should point out that installing Julia and Pluto locally should take at best a matter of minutes and no fuss.
- melling 6y agoLocally is often an iPad. That’s why I asked.
- ChrisRackauckas 6y agoThey directly run on Binder. This link is from the Pluto homepage: https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/fonsp/vscode-binder/master?urlpath=pluto https://mybinder.org/v2/gh/fonsp/vscode-binder/master?urlpat...
