Tivadar Danka released a 45-minute video visually explaining all the basic graph theory concepts used in machine learning. His thesis: people aren't bad at ML math — academics just prioritize dense notation over spatial intuition, forcing students to memorize symbols before understanding. The video builds intuition visually instead.
