I’ve been going to Reddit over and over because Lemmy doesn’t have the same machine learning, data science communities that Reddit has . Does anyone know of any communities?

    Oh man this is going to be a really important lesson for you to learn: you do not need to be more competent than others, or even more competent than average, in order to run a community about a competency.

    The skills involved in running a community are not the skills the community is about. Being able to moderate and encourage discussions which you yourself cannot dominate is a super important leadership skill.

    If the idea seems attractive to you, do it.

    But also be realistic about your time. It could be you don’t have time to start, shape, and run a new community.

    That doesn’t mean you can’t spend some time identifying others who could run it and then selling the idea to them.

      Ohh 😭 okay . Alright I will ask a few friends who also would love to collaborate. We recently worked on a GAN and we’re looking for resources . Thanks for the advice I’ll definitely think about it.

        If it makes you sad to give up a leadership position maybe that’s an indication you’re in the wrong major. Or if it’s too late to change majors, then an indication of the direction you’ll want to go after you graduate.

          Why would you think I was sad? Lmao 😂 Nah . I love my major. Been topping classes since childhood. You can say that I’m aware of the fact that there are people who might know more than me. Which makes me think if I’m still a student then maybe I should learn from them first.
