That was an epic struggle! I accidentally used an eliminated letter and put a letter in a known wrong positionin 2 different guesses . When I was on my 5th guess I could NOT find any word that fit. I finally deliberately used an eliminated letter hoping to get more clues, and even once I got the 2 additional letters I typed in the word without recognizing it as a word at first!

Adaptive Accelerated Composite Minimization
The choice of the stepsize in first-order convex optimization is typically based on the smoothness constant and plays a crucial role in the performance of algorithms. Recently, there has been a resurgent interest in introducing adaptive stepsizes that do not explicitly depend on smooth constant. In this paper, we propose a novel adaptive stepsize rule based on function evaluations (i.e., zero-order information) that enjoys provable convergence guarantees for both accelerated and non-accelerated…

From one leftist to another.
What are we if not "for" the poor and middlin interests and "against" the hyper-enrichment of the already filthy rich exploiting interests? What is democracy if not also "for" dispersing power to the poor and middlin interests and breaking up its concentration among exploiters?

To get better at this mission, we must first...
