I've started reading books again. Got plenty that I've bought in the past but never read. Currently reading "Peaky Blinders - The Real Story" by Carl Chinn (local historian). More of a documentary type book, but it opens your eyes to what it was really like in the area at the start of the 20th century.
In lockdown with people off work, has anybody decided to learn something new?
Have started pissing about with home automation and raspberry PIs and it's like a rabbit hole where I can see myself programming all sorts of unneeded shite.
Been trying to learn Python for machine learning to automate SEO tasks.
I'm also trying to improve my Photoshop skills. I've had the program for years and just potter about with it, but I'm now on Photoshop 2020 CC and following the many tutorials on YouTube.

Loads and I’ll look and share someWith regards to those that have mentioned Python, we're due to be moving to either Python or R with work in the near/mid future. Any good online learning resources you've found?

At the moment just trying to use it to automate certain aspects of keyword research, I’ve got a new e-commerce client and potentially around 80,000 keywords to categorise and look at the intent behind them, it will majorly help cut down the time for it, still trying to get my head around it but it’s getting there. Can use it to automate all of the time consuming but important boring tasks.Ohhhh what sort of things?

Wow great, thanks a lot for that!!Have a look at scikit learn (sklearn) very easy to use out the box models.
There’s a good text classification algo using bag of words on the 20 newsgroups dataset that’s very easy to understand I did for my Masters:
5.6.2. The 20 newsgroups text dataset — scikit-learn 0.19.2 documentation
Actually looking at what you’re doing something like Word2Vec might be a better bet then a simple cosine similarity and KNN to cluster them? (god I miss ML)

Wow great, thanks a lot for that!!
Can't you use semrush or anything like that?At the moment just trying to use it to automate certain aspects of keyword research, I’ve got a new e-commerce client and potentially around 80,000 keywords to categorise and look at the intent behind them, it will majorly help cut down the time for it, still trying to get my head around it but it’s getting there.

Only with Lube.Can't you use semrush or anything like that?
For keyword research but not auto categorising based upon architecture and for user intent so muchCan't you use semrush or anything like that?
So you need to scan the page to decide what category the product should be in?For keyword research but not auto categorising based upon architecture and for user intent so much
Cheers Nick! I'll have a browse.Have a look on uDemy, they have been giving some courses away for free
