@xtimv @thomasahle Unpopular opinion: All math notations should be 0-indexed. \sum_0^n should be applied to {0, 1, ..., n-1}.
English

@thomasahle I really like
[a:b) = [a, a+1,.., b-1]
(a:b) = [a+1, .., b-1]
(a:b] = [a+1, .., b-1, b]
[a:b] = [a, a+1, .., b-1, b]
It's the continuous brackets, but the colon makes it discrete.
You can also drop either end point to have it be unbounded.
English

@SashaMTL My understanding is that it's not, due to things like sum reductions operating in non deterministic order determined by the hardware at runtime + fp addition not being associative

@lidangzzz @MinakoOikawa One could contemporaneously publish two papers that mutually cite each other
English

@MinakoOikawa 不会,因为按照时间来看,一旦发布后就不能修改了,后发布的只能引用之前发布的内容了。
除非是两个可以随意修改的wikipedia或者open source project

Wrote a little package that visualizes directed acyclic graphs (DAGs) in the terminal.

As a τ-ist I insist that the correct form of this formula is e^iτ = 1.

What you see below is one of the most beautiful formulas in mathematics. A single equation, establishing a relation between 𝑒, π, the imaginary number, and 1. It is mind-blowing. This is what's behind the sorcery:

@xtimv @mrdrozdov No it does nit. “min=” doesn’t even pass the lexer.
English

@mrdrozdov I think scala would allow a min= b, but I'm not sure about precedence with say a min= b * c. (@ctongfei ?)

@xleaps @mrseaoxbleem These optimization techniques (quasi-Newton, trust-region methods, etc) usually require some estimation of the Hessian matrices, which are computationally infeasible for overparameterized neural nets.
English

@mrseaoxbleem 我觉得惋惜的是当年有许多的优化技巧和技术,现在全都被 SGD 这种不上台面的算法加上超快的 GPU 给暴力遮盖了。
