PaperVoice: Free audiobook app for LibriVox recordings ( Or classic audiobooks). We started this project to support our friends who wanted the audiobook for their books. Since Audible doesn't allow machine voices ( and human narrating is expensive). We decide to create a platform for these authors.
So, It's a platform where any author can publish their audiobook.

Got it. But these corporation have alot of influence in our political system. If things will go on like this we might end choosing the govt. (or the political system) they want. Bcz they might filter the other feeds which are impacting them somehow.

The Alchemist and Eleven Minutes from Paulo Coelho
These books taught me to take risk and importance of being different.
“There is only one thing that makes a dream impossible to achieve: the fear of failure.” — Paulo Coelho, The Alchemist
“Everything tells me that I am about to make a wrong decision, but making mistakes is just part of life. What does the world want of me? Does it want me to take no risks, to go back to where I came from because I didn't have the courage to say "yes" to life?” ― Paulo Coelho, Eleven Minutes

I would recommend Andrew Ng's Deep Learning Course. https://www.coursera.org/specializations/deep-learning
This course is extremely good mostly because it covers the essential theoretical topics and gives some practical advice. TIP: do solve the assignments bcz it will clear a lot of concepts while solving it. ( or other solution can be found on github )

I have also started learning NLP this year. Here is what have followed.
If you are completely new to deeplearning I would recommend course from https://www.fast.ai. Since it will teach you the concepts in a more practical way and also the next courses will more theory than practical.
For theory on NLP with deeplearning you can follow Stanford course by Christopher Manning.
http://web.stanford.edu/class/cs224n/index.html#coursework
it will give you a good understanding of how deeplearning is used in a certain area of NLP. But remember deeplearning is one of the techniques for solving NLP problems if you are more interested in Understanding NLP then I would recommend the following book.
https://web.stanford.edu/~jurafsky/slp3/ed3book.pdf
Although, Stanford course should give you a great high-level understanding of how GPT models work but if you really need to go under the hood then I would suggest after finishing this course you should learn Unsupervised Learning in DeepLearning.

Currently, there isn't any perfect TTS system that almost sounds like a human and if you are looking for good TTS services then neural voices from Google, IBM, and Amazon might be promising since they are trained on recent DeepLearning technologies. But they are pretty monotonous although you can define the speech prosody using SSML tags but the results are not good.
https://cloud.google.com/text-to-speech (select voicetype: wavenet) https://text-to-speech-demo.ng.bluemix.net
And if you are looking to train your own model then [tacotron 2](https://ai.googleblog.com/2017/12/tacotron-2-generating-huma...) will be a good start. https://github.com/mozilla/TTS

I do buy ebooks for my kindle. Mostly fiction books bcz reading a technical book is difficult in kindle. Though it sucks that I can only read those ebooks in Amazon kindle platforms but kindle is good for bedtime reading.
Also, I have purchased some courses from Udemy almost 12 but I never got to finish any of them. Some of the courses are great but others are boring hell.
Also, for subject which requires understanding of things (like Operating System). Try building a visual model in brain. If u already know some of the parts then connect those part visually with the new concept you are learning.
