A podcast with Ryan and Parker that probably takes itself too seriously but life is effort and we'll stop when we die. Suboptimal stochastic gradient descent for society.
Ryan and Parker reflect on past themes and set themes for the new year.
The next episode will be entirely devoted to yearly themes. Themes are like values that you set for yourself to live up to for coming year. We will reflect on last year’s themes, set new themes for the 2019-2020 academic year, and define yearly themes a bit more thoroughly. In the meantime, this is a recut and trimmed version of our last episode on themes: Episode 23 - OPTIMAL MINIMUM. It’s only about 20 minutes long and should be great context for the next episode. Check out the show notes for Episode 23 if you’d like to find any of our references.
