Great article! I've been thinking about this on and off recently, as I wonder if we might be having intuitive issues when it comes to gradient descent optimization.

3 Blue,1 Brown had a video recently that kicked off my head scratching and is a great complement to your article: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwAD6dRSVyI

Thank you! It's funny you should mention that because I've been thinking about continuous optimization a lot lately.

That's a great video, I really like his slider method for understanding the coordinates. Thanks for linking it!
