Very few people show the reality. The first week is mostly confusion. You don't struggle with Artificial Intelligence. You struggle with Git. You struggle with Python environments.

If you're starting Data Science on Ubuntu, especially using VS Code, Jupyter Notebook, GitHub, and virtual environments, this article may save you several hours. My Goal I am documenting my entire journey publicly. Not because I already know Data Science. Because I don't. I want every future researcher or student to see what le...
