The praise from popular press and the promotion by the authors should be put into context of what mathematicians think of it. Two blog posts by a professor at U. Chicago, qualifying it of intellectual fraud: https://www.galoisrep

I'm surprised to read they used a Linux (ok patched with PREEMPT_RT) for real-time safety critical software.

I feel that the author saying LaTeX is bad because it is (in particular) not based on a GUI/point-and-click system, and preferring Microsoft Equation Editor/Outline to it, reveals a big misunderstanding. I also don't see how

This is exactly one of the points raised in the text. Non-TT assistant professorships are indeed postdocs, which often come with more teaching load than other fellowship-based postdocs. This is for example the case of the "Hills Assist

This is so simply not true, or highly subfield-dependent. Unless you are a superstar, there is no way you get a TT job without a postdoc in math.

This looks like a dumbed down/partly stolen version of http://jalammar.github.io/illustrated-transformer/ (and his other posts). towardsdatascience usually screams "low quality content" :/
