this looks pretty good. certainly much better than goodfellow's deep learning book. definitely much the diagrams and code are much appreciated but i'm curious why mxnet over pytorch?

I find this comment amusing, have you read the goodfellow's book? That book is amazing.
I suppose you and I have very different notions of the word 'amazing'.
i read the first half of it very closely and skimmed the second.
all the authors look to be Amazon employees and I think MXNet is Amazon's "chosen" DL framework.
ah that makes sense. should've googled author's names. i just assumed they were academic because of the large number of unis using the book.
