Where’s the best way to learn a little about deep learning?

Any efficient online courses?

I also like Siraj Raval on YouTube.

Unorthodox suggestion, but read some example PyTorch or autograd code. It’s pretty straightforward and removes a lot of the hand waving from how the compute graph is constructed compared to static graph frameworks. If you know the basics I think this is the best way to get started and get an intuition about how real world training code works.

Ian Goodfellow’s “deeplearningbook.org” is a great introduction. For slightly more applied books I would go with “Deep learning with python” by Chollet or “Hands on Machine Learning with Sci-kit learn and tensorflow” by Geron. Anyone one of these 3 books would be good to read, is fairly lay, and isn’t too long. Christopher Olah’s blog has amazing visualizations/explanations too. There really is a large wealth of resources out there!! I’ve personally done blogs/textbooks compared to online courses.

Is python the best tool? R doesn’t work well?

This. Books are the best way, otherwise you’re just fiddling with libraries. Serious ML practitioners don’t use R, For ML and DL Python is essentially a requirement.
