Any blog article, course you make, book you write have become my "shut-up and take my money" kind of deal. I feel I have learned tons already (and I am just starting).

Javier LiendoCV Enthusiast

I did deeplearning.ai, Udacity AI Nanodegree, and a bunch of other courses ... but for the last month, I have always started the day by first finishing one day of your course. The projects are not too overwhelming, but each project gets a key thing done, so they are super useful. I keep on finding myself getting back and looking at the source code from your projects, much more than I do from other courses.
