Is it me or is there more and more resources for programmers to learn machine learning ?

I picked this as a hobby during a lockdown in my country. It is extremely fun to learn IMO.

Definitely seeing a pattern of interest here, or is it just what I'm seeking out now, so I'm aware of it when I see it?

The pattern has been there for years, but interest has been consistently growing, as has the variety and quality of learning resources.

The software for machine learning have become both significantly more powerful and significantly more user-friendly, and pre-trained image and text models have become extremely powerful to the point where a hobbyist can get satisfying results without being an expert. This has made it easier than ever to learn machine learning, and it's made it easier to develop resources for learning machine learning.

The technology is being commoditized. That brings good and bad things with it.

i thought it teaches deep learning through R from the title

My thoughts exactly. We are too conditioned!

I don't see why you would drop the "E" otherwise. The name "Data Flower" would be better to me, this is needlessly confusing.

Awesome resource

The website is built in julia with https://github.com/tlienart/Franklin.jl, Cool!

Would be interesting to have it teach DL in Julia as well.

Yeah, I was a little surprised seeing a Julia static site generator being used to create a Python tutorial.
