Oh and you can fairly quickly get to very advanced and tough questions that are near the forefront of mathematics research!

Explained in class today that delta means a small positive number you choose and epsilon means a small positive number your enemy chooses.

Hah, I guess Fitbit doesn't have the activity, "rocking the baby to sleep". Definitely not an elliptical.

Pet peeve: students in math saying-when are we going to use this? Ya you prob aren't going to use rotational volumes but using logic in new situations is useful Do you say this about history classes? No b/c the class purpose is applying gen. theory to the present! Same w/ math

You cannot take the logarithm of the Lipschitz constant of a function! A 🧵 about a super common mistake in ML papers 1/10

@bremen79 Thank you! From my experience being a physics & math major, dimensional analysis was early on in the physics undergrad. But for math, I didn't see it until my applied math masters.

Ian Goodfellow, Apple’s director of machine learning, is leaving the company due to its return to work policy. In a note to staff, he said “I believe strongly that more flexibility would have been the best policy for my team.” He was likely the company’s most cited ML expert.

@GoodsiePhD When I give the same talks, I slightly vary the titles a bit- so if I need to pad out my CV, I have the option of listing them all and it won't look so repetitive.

#MathTwitter Do ppl write the titles of their talks in their CVs? Or just list the places they gave the talks? Asking bc I have used the same title for 5 talks and it seems silly to write the title that many times. Thx!

@thecaitcode We've had one for about 2 years. Daily commuter. One of the best purchases we've ever made. Reasons: 1. Very high safety rating, 2. Very low maintenance costs, like just wiper fluid & washing soap, 3. No gas. And our electric bill didn't really go up that much either.

Who out here has an electric car? How did you justify the extra cost to yourself (lower cost of running or better for the planet etc) and has it been worth it?

People who do/use math for a living what undergraduate math courses do you: 1. Most regret having taken, 2. Wish you wouldn’t have taken, 3. Wish you would have taken, 4. Most appreciate having taken?

Transformers are arguably the most impactful deep learning architecture from the last 5 yrs. In the next few threads, we’ll cover multi-head attention, GPT and BERT, Vision Transformer, and write these out in code. This thread → understanding multi-head attention. 1/n
