@Jason I'm in.

@JohnDVillasenor @BrookingsInst @BrookingsGov If AI is creating the argument itself, and AI is needed to summarize it, what is actually being accomplished? It seems we still need to teach idea of constructing a thesis and arguing it. Is that really different from traditional expository writing instruction?

[Ben Engber @bengber]

@JohnDVillasenor @BrookingsInst @BrookingsGov With AI they are able to produce much longer and clearer sentences, but often the result is so long and so all over the place that I'm forced to resort to AI to understand what they are trying to say.

@DeanDBallard @xaqwg @ollie @RandiGoldman I had ruled the possibility of five flips as too hard because it wasn’t, as you say, “standard.” Would love to see what it looks like.

[Ben Engber @bengber]

@DeanDBallard @xaqwg @ollie @RandiGoldman Thanks! I really liked this problem!

[Ben Engber @bengber]

@xaqwg @ollie @RandiGoldman I think you can do it with 6 flips, with p(Heads) ≈ 0.4326

P1 chooses: HHH-HHH, TTT-TTT, TTT-TTH, TTT-THT, HHH-HHT, HHH-HTH, TTT-THH, TTT-HTH, TTT-HHT, HHH-HTT, HHH-THT, HHH-TTH

P2-5 each chooses: 1 permutation of 1H+5T, 1 of 5H+1T, 3 of 2H+4T, 3 of 4H+2T, and 5 of 3H+3T.

@Jeffreytgoodwi2 Were you able to make any progress finding the Heirloom Chemistry Set? I would love to buy one as well.

[Ben Engber @bengber]

@daveymackintosh Yep, very expensive to do. Also check out http://t.co/iVUm6x0XwS for updates + some discussion what consistency means.

[Ben Engber @bengber]

@daveymackintosh Of course, theory != reality. Reality is very case-specific. You can force data loss/dirty reads, but unclear what it means

[Ben Engber @bengber]

@daveymackintosh For example, in async mode, 1 node down will lose data. In sync mode, losing # nodes = RF will cause up to N% data loss.

[Ben Engber @bengber]

Thanks for the kind words, @daveymackintosh. Data loss represented on the slide is theoretica based on Consistency/Durability configuration.

#AerospikeDB is now open source. Good move. We found that to be a blocker for many organizations.

[Ben Engber @bengber]

@noahmittman Yes, some of us actually remember to tweet.

[Ben Engber @bengber]

@DevinBezdicek Did you do that yet? Would you be interested in doing it jointly?

[Ben Engber @bengber]

@DevinBezdicek Hey, did you ever create a Zapier zap for PipelineDeals?
