Wait, (s)he’s arguing that the code isn’t imperative enough, but the punchline is they don’t like having to type session.run? I don’t understand their vendetta against the graph, which is a powerful abstraction that lets you choose different backend, and let’s tensorboard show you an awesome view of your computation. Session.run isn’t hard to type and it takes at most a few days to grok that everything is lazily evaluated.

Would (s)he like eager apis? Does (s)he want better c++ apis? Or does the author just want to hate on tensorflow because it’s been hyped so much?
