Waking Up Full of Awesome
There was a time when you were five years old, and you woke up full of awesome. You knew you were awesome. You loved yourself. You thought you were beautiful, even with missing teeth and messy hair and mismatched socks inside your grubby sneakers.

Machine learning is the science of getting computers to act without being explicitly programmed. In the past decade, machine learning has given us self-driving cars, practical speech recognition, effective web search, and a vastly improved understanding of the human genome. Machine learning is so pervasive today that you probably use it dozens of times a day without knowing it. Many researchers also think it is the best way to make progress towards human-level AI. In this class, you will learn about the most effective machine learning techniques, and gain practice implementing them and getting them to work for yourself. More importantly, you'll learn about not only the theoretical underpinnings of learning, but also gain the practical know-how needed to quickly and powerfully apply these techniques to new problems.
Sustainagility
Sustainagility, the properties of a system that allow actors to sustain agility, has been introduced as the complement of sustainability. Operational criteria and indicators of sustainability, tend to focus on 'persistence', while change and agility may at a longer time frame contribute more to high-level sustainability goals. When applied to climate change, a sustainagility focus can bridge 'adaptation' and 'mitigation' approaches. Sustainagility is also the title of a book written by Patrick Dixon and Johan Gorecki, published by Kogan Page in May 2010.

Bainbridge argues that the root cause of their failure goes to starting companies for the wrong reasons. He posits that there are five reasons people start something:
