@dennybritz @mlpowered @ArtirKel I wrote "Yes you should understand backprop" on this topic https://t.co/laCKNvva0W I find that people who didn't go through the exercise will inevitably make errors when they stray off the beaten path, e.g. especially ones that look like the "DQN Clipping" bug. Subtle.
