Ask HN: Tutorials written with heavy dependencies
10 by bilekas | 8 comments on Hacker News.
I am quite stubborn in a lot of ways but one in particular is when I'm guiding a team member on something I like to explain the workings so that there is a high level understanding of how things are working. In the last couple years, I've been dipping my toes into other areas for 'hobby' time and wanting to know how things I use & like work. A great example is the machine learning: An immediate google gets you as far as 'install these 10x libs' then write this. When you dig into the OS of those libraries they're overwhelming and the documentation is never focused on the underlying functionality, which I personally am giddy to learn. I find myself having to go with trial and error, I hate this because the wheel has already been invented. Maybe I'm missing a resource. It feels these tutorials are just tutorials in libraries. I know source code IS the workings, is there a resource other than source code I'm missing ?
