Hey!
It’s Tivadar from The Palindrome. I’ve been thinking about moving towards video for a while now. This is my first one, which is a video version of a previous post.
Hope you’ll like it!
Cheers,

P.S. Don’t forget that we have a special Holiday discount:
For a limited time, you can get 30% off from the yearly subscription to The Palindrome.
This is not like your typical “holiday sale.” Every new paid member helps us hit specific milestones that I’ll reinvest straight back into The Palindrome.
Here’s the plan for 2026:
600 paid subscribers → “Mathematics of Machine Learning” exclusive deep-dive mini course, included in your sub.
700 paid subscribers → Another exclusive mini-course (Q4 2026)
A second mini-course with a different expert/angle. We are building up an extensive “course library” for members.
800 paid subscribers → Dedicated Manim animator
We’ll bring on a Manimator so more articles come with clean, high-quality animations that make the concepts instantly click for you.
1,000 paid subscribers → Full-time writer
This is the big one. With a full-time writer on the team, we can ship more deep dives, more courses, and more structured learning tracks throughout 2026.
Currently, we are at 559 paid members (~56% of our goal).
