Start from the real problem.
A proof-of-concept is only useful if someone’s day actually gets easier because of it.
About me
I work where data,
AI, and public services meet.
I am Shakhawat Hossain Turag, a Data Scientist focused on practical AI systems, knowledge management, and data-informed decisions. My path has moved through software engineering, analytics, image processing, and consulting, always with an interest in turning complex systems into useful ones.
I grew up in Bangladesh and have built my career in Germany. That is also why many of my notes are in Bangla: good technical explanations should not depend on which language you think in.

Three habitsExplain it plainly.
If I can’t explain a system to a colleague without slides, I don’t understand it well enough yet.
Write it down.
Notes outlast meetings. This website started as exactly that.
