    "1735750": "Hello Sanyam, \n\nGlad to see your progress there mate. You won't believe but just yesterday I watched you interviewing Jeremy Howard about initial stages of the Kaggle and him being angel investor of it and obviously that some 53 min interview with @andradaolteanu as well. I'd say you're doing a great job. Not just the DS but through it the experience that you've gained in the exploration of other skills that you've inculcated in your content is quite commendable. \n\nThis thank you note itself has been written very well. Let me tell you the community will feel much assured since you   promised to be consistent in the future. Keep growing mate. All the best wishes. 🙌",

    "1736793": "Hi, listen, I saw [this](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXZ-EV4PnFY) video before, was wondering why this person is so nervous and also happy/excited. I was suffering your channel, and saw this meaningless (at that time I thought so, please accept apology) video as once you that that **\"I think I am live\"**, I just stopped it, and move forward. Now your post clarifies to me that moment deserves to be so. Once again congratulations, and thanks for sharing your insights.\n\nYou @init27 are an inspiration for young data scientists.",
