> Momentum updates are complicated due to Nesterov requiring an initial update 
> before gradient calculations. There is, however, a different form of the 
> Nesterov update that can be cleanly performed after the regular update, 
> simplifying the code. This allows performing the gradient calculations before 
> any update - with or without Nesterov.
