Describe the bug

Description

Bullet lists in the optimization_tutorial.py sphinx-gallery source produce broken markdown in the generated Jupyter notebook (.ipynb), causing incorrect rendering on Google Colab.

Root Cause

Two compounding issues in the sphinx-gallery to pypandoc pipeline:

1. Wrong indentation after #

The source used indentation that produced a leading space before the bullet marker after sphinx-gallery stripped # :

#  - **Number of Epochs** - ...   # 2 spaces after #

After stripping: - **Number of Epochs** - ... (space before dash)

Pandoc treats this as a block quote (> - ...) instead of a top-level bullet list, because the - is not at column 0.

2. Missing blank line before the list

Even with correct column-0 dashes, pandoc joins everything into one run-on paragraph if there is no blank line between the preceding sentence and the list:

We define the following hyperparameters for training:
- **Number of Epochs** - ...

this produces inline text, not a list.

What the generated notebook showed (broken)

We define the following hyperparameters for training: - **Number of
Epochs** - the number of times to iterate over the dataset - **Batch
Size** - ...

What it should show

We define the following hyperparameters for training:

- **Number of Epochs** - the number of times to iterate over the dataset
- **Batch Size** - the number of data samples ...
- **Learning Rate** - ...
