Great gift for the holidays. Sit around the fireplace with your loved ones drinking egg nog and learning the magic of deep learning (AKA: regression with millions of parameters)
I was an English-as-Second-Language learner when I moved to Canada with my family many years ago. I remember doing endless fill-in-the-blank exercises to practice English. Deep Learning Math is also a language. So I thought: why not use the same method to practice this math

If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut Education and Science Research the way weโre cutting it ourselves โ strategically undermining Americaโs long-term health, wealth, and security โ we would likely consider it an act of war.

The formula for perfect tits? Or kissing bivariate normals?
Math. Scream. If you paste this NSFW formula into Google Search, it automatically generates this animation. exp(-((x-4)^2+(y-4)^2)^2/1000) + exp(-((x +4)^2+(y+4)^2)^2/1000) + 0.1exp(-((x +4)^2+(y+4)^2)^2)+0.1exp(-((x -4)^2+(y-4)^2)^2)
