While I don't share his total disdain for the article, he got the date spot on, and I'd say that
- no mention of non-sigmoid activation functions
- calling overfitting 'grandmothering' and
- diving comparatively deep into gradient descent (which while absolutely the most common, is not the only way to train a neural network), while being an inch deep on practically every other aspect.
Its a bit of a confused intro that simultaneously tries to teach you the basics while throwing jargon at you ('delta-rule', 'beta-coefficient', 'hyperparaboloid', etc.).
