Perhaps the most important concepts to know for ML are norms, vectors, matrices and probability and optimization. What is norm?
1
Norms are abstract concept of distance in high dimensional vector space of data. Important norms are L0,L1,L2,Linf, L-inf though other form of norms also exists.
1
Below is an example to understand these norms in 2-dimensional vector space

If you are thinking of doing a PhD, don't take advice from someone who doesn't know you, whether it's me or anyone else on Twitter. It can be great and can be terrible, and anything in between. And yes, mental health is a key concern. (If you still want my advice, see below..)
PhD admissions season is ramping up, so I feel obliged to join the chorus of voices reminding everyone that doing a PhD is, in most cases, a terrible idea.

Today marks 5 years since the public release of PyTorch! We didn't expect to come this far, but here we're🙂- 2K Contributors, 90K Projects, 3.9M lines of "import torch" on GitHub. More importantly, we're still receiving lots of love and having a great ride. Here's to the future!

1/ It pays to be paranoid. Bugs can take so long to find that it’s best to be really careful as you go. Add breakpoints to sanity check numpy tensors while you're coding; add visualizations just before your forward pass (it must be right before! otherwise errors will slip in).

I pay 30% to Govt on my income & another 15-20% I pay to Govt on my monthly purchases. Its a small % in India who pays nearly 50% of their earnings to Govt. Can we get support from Govt to prioritise our legal cases, school seat, avail passport at ease etc?? ….

The purpose of computation is insight, not numbers." - Richard Hamming
Mathematics requires a small dose, not of genius, but of an imaginative freedom which, in a larger dose, would be insanity. -Angus K. Rodgers

"Parallelizing Python Code" Nice post outlining diff strategies. As someone who primarily uses the stdlib's multiprocessing lib manually, or joblib for the extra convenience, there are some nice tidbits in here. E.g., I didn't know about IPython Parallel! anyscale.com/blog/paralleliz…
