Description: The first ~6 minutes are on the topic Norms and Derivatives: Why a norm of the input and output are needed to define a derivative. Now we can find the “matrix gradient” of the determinant function (leading to the “adjugate” matrix), and the “Jacobian” of a matrix inverse.

This episode features a wide-ranging conversation about poetry: what it is, where it comes from, and why it matters. Our guest, poet (and poetry professor) Joshua Bennett, talks about the early experiences that pushed him toward poetry and about the people who shaped and inspired his creative approach as a writer. Many of these people are fellow poets, others are his own grandparents, parents, and teachers, but Prof. Bennett has also found inspiration in less expected figures; over the course of the interview, he name-checks the singers Yolanda Adams and Marvin Gaye, the biologists Charles Henry Turner and Ernest Everett Just, the astronaut Mae Jemison, and various characters from the TV series Star Trek: the Next Generation. Other topics Prof. Bennett addresses include the relation between poetry and generative AI (his own work is among the vast body of text that has been fed as training data into large language models), education as liberation, and the concept of social poetics. Eventually, the interview blossoms into a heartfelt meditation on human experience: childhood, aging, parenthood, identity, and the ways poetry enhances our humanity by capturing the magic of being alive.

This lecture discusses the core elements of programs: strings, input/output, f-strings, operators, branching, and indentation. Big idea: Debug early, debug often. Write a little and test a little. Don’t write a complete program at once. It introduces too many errors. Use the Python Tutor to step through code when you see something unexpected!
