Do you have specific books or courses that you plan to use for learning those subjects?
A brief explanation regarding why you chose to learn that subject would be helpful.
- Digital Marketing (To grow my start up. Realized I need to know how to sell rather than just build)
- Computational Biology and Bioinformatics (I find it very fascinating to try and uncover how life works)
- Math (Feel like I didn't really get a hang of math early on but now realize how important and fun it can be. Currently reading A Programmer's Introduction to Mathematics)
- Machine learning & AI (Huge potential in drug discovery)
- Computer Aided Drug Discovery (Did a dissertation on this and loved it)
- Deep dive into Genomics and Genetic Engineering (I find genetics to be very similar to coding)
- Aging and Longevity research (I'm 25 but still see aging as a disease ever since I turned 18. It's why I chose to do a medical related undergraduate course. Hopefully we can better understand how aging works, and how to stop/delay it)
- C, C++, Python and R (For writing bioinformatics tools)
- Computer graphics and game development (This is a bit of a stretch. Hopefully I can manage. I find graphics and game programming to be one of coolest uses of math. Seeing stuff I used to dread like trigonometry actually being of use gives me a reason to learn them)
- Playing an instrument, maybe guitar and getting good at FL Studio (Music is fun)
- How stocks work (Trying my luck at financial independence plus the regards of WSB intrigue me)
One of the projects will also involve using a supercomputer, so I think I'll have to learn some of the various ways of interacting with that (Slurm, OpenMP, MPI, CUDA, GNU Parallel? I don't really know anything about it yet). I imagine I'll mostly learn about this from dipping into various guides and manuals and playing with examples rather than a proper book or course.
Why: I've already built full stack applications (FE, BE, DB). I want to go deeper down the rabbit hole: learning the infrastructure which supports applications.
How: KodeKloud.com (fresher content than ACloudGuru.com), Udemy.com , IRC , eBooks, Various articles.
- French - working with a tutor on iTalki
- Figure Drawing/landscape sketches - Master studying the classics across art history
- SaaS sales and marketing
- song composition - mostly master studying music I like and reverse engineering them
- home DIY projects
- audio production - goal is to be able to produce quality demos in either Garage Band or Reaper for me and my friends

I want to pickup Rust this year and create few projects I could show in portfolio for when I will be looking for my first apprenticeship
Keep brain and body happy and productive with a jungle of wide-ranging and diverse interests. Breathe in: many books for inspiration, information and theory, thoughts and discussions. Breathe out: the patient practice, regular exercise, and joyful expression.
More than personal satisfaction, I hope to apply any skills I gain to contribute to the social good in my local habitat, to entertain and have fun with family and friends. Bonus if it also creates economic value.
I have so far been able to generate roughly 80% of the code. Which is a massive productivity boost. However I am pushing to get it as close to 100% as possible. That is of course impossible but the closer to 100% I get the more it will boost my productivity.
It’s a fun project to work on by the way. You have to think about everything from the high-level architecture to the lowest level data structures.
Spanish - I want to be able to at least read on a 5th grade level.
Stocks - A general idea of what most of the terms mean.
Creative endeavors - Either drawing, music or writing. Something to escape with and have proof that it was an interesting journey.
Weight loss - Gained over 50lbs since the pandemic. Need to lose 3x time to get to a healthy weight.
I have many, many more, but these are the 5 I'm the most interested in.
