You seem to have missed the entire point of the hundreds of hours of lessons provided by fast.ai, as a service to the community(+), which is this: to explain, and be able to re-implement from scratch, all the things that make those 5 lines of code possible.
Some of that includes coverage of the probabilistic data structures and algorithms that are at the heart of the MMDS course. Along with computational linear algebra, analysis of the details of floating point representation, discussion of C/C++ interop, matrix calculus, parallel processing, Python accelerators like cython and numba, functional and object oriented programming, notation, and a lot more.
Being able to solve challenging problems in 5 lines of code is much harder than solving the same problem in hundreds of lines of code.
(+) fast.ai makes no money from any course - there are no ads, and everything is free. Why are some people so keen to stamp on those who volunteer their time to help others? Open source software development suffers the same problem.
For whatever it’s worth fast.ai is my favourite MOOC and the most impressive set of videos I’ve seen shared freely on the internet. Thankyou for everything you do!
