The lessons look interesting from a high level perspective. And I think could help people guide their applications. I think there's also a need for a very low level course in deep learning. I.e. on the level of someone who wishes to wr

I think the obvious "gotchas" are problem definition (Am I formulating the problem in a way that will allow me to create value? a concrete example: am I modeling churn correctly?), overfitting, target leaks, and model trouble shoo
