For me re-reading some book twice/thrice or reading multiple book/courses on same topic make it click. Sometime I think it click but my understanding is totally wrong, talking to people and solving problem help me find the gap.

I always get confused who the audience is for these kind of books? For advanced reader this is really shallow, for beginners its really advanced (who really want to read 543 page book as beginner).

I somewhat disagree with this article. Microservice is great for complex software modules. But some jokers in industry starts writing miscroservice for every small function/method in the code. It's better that microservice should

just a clarification I think you are confused between RL and robotics. RL algorithm could be used anywhere either in ads, nlp, computer vision etc.

I know one good reference. https://www.deeplearningbook.org/ Also there are various courses and lectures but that needs time and effort. There is no short cuts like the book posted by OP.

I ignore all of this. The OP is coming from a no name company and don't have any expertises. If you are senior and you don't have any expertises or deep experience in a domain, you will have tough time getting a job even in this h
