I'm learning apache spark and distributed data analysis with python. I'm on the last module of EdX's Scalable Machine Learning course and it has only been in labs 3 and 4 that I've felt like I've learned something fun and new. Functional programming. I've been trying to wrap my head around the paradigm. I'm using clojure instead of haskell, but the principles are still there.
