#72My goal for 2017 is to fully figure out Docker. The majority of information out there, including tutorials and blog articles about others' successful deployments, comes in the form of very high-level overviews. Everything I've found is an introduction to getting a basic docker instance running. There is very little useful information out there as to how to run a proper multi-host cluster. There is core Docker. Tack o…
This is also one of my goals for 2017. I've been using Docker on my project at work for about 8 months, but only in development and CI. I really want to start a push to begin testing usage in production, but have no idea where to begin. It's hard to find information that strings everything together. I feel comfortable with using it in development, but production seems to be an entire different beast.

#73Image processing, I know a little bit of the theory, and I did my master thesis on image processing on FPGA with algorithms I developed. But I feel building a working program needs lots of experience not just theory.

#74C++17 (Sigh. I use many languages but learning c++ takes me more time than all the other languages combined.)

#75Category theory.
It's such an interesting idea.

#76GIS. I've been using PostGIS a ton at work in the past year, and I've read _PostGIS In Action_[1], but I've really just scratched the surface. I want to play around with making my own projections.

#77I went through this last year. After two false starts with something toward the leading edge, I settled on Emacs, Linux, and JavaScript. All of which I already 'knew' enough to get my face slapped. Photography got added without a formal application. Raspberry Pi sort of worked it's way in under Linux in the second half of the year. Since I haven't 'learned' any of them, I'll probably keep them around in 2017.
I'm also thinking about adding some 'classical' AI at the agent level of abstraction (not the lower DNN level). That probably means a bit of Common Lisp and an excuse for buying some used Norvig books. Like the formal topics from last year, this seems to be a domain that I bump into by trying to avoid it.

#78I want to have a deep understanding of Kubernetes...
Oh, and Finnish.

Are you looking to automate infrastructure-as-code in there, as well? I've lost many a night to trying to get Rancher to play nice with Terraform, especially in high-availability mode. Luckily, it appears that the process has been vastly simplified in recent rancher-manager releases.

#80I've learned too much stuff in 2016. My goal for 2017 is to learn fewer things and actually understand what I've learned better.
