Strength reduction
Why do computers sometimes get tired of doing the same math over and over?
arithmetic intensity is
Arithmetic intensity = FLOPs / Bytes accessed
Effect size
Cohen's D benchmarks: 0.2 = small, 0.5 = medium, 0.8 = large effect
BFS vs DFS: BFS finds shortest path in unweighted graphs, DFS uses less memory

the L1 norm is not differentiable at zero
Absolute value's kink makes it non-differentiable at zero
