When I first learnt about Martin Kleppman I thought he must be in his 50s or 60s. When searched for him on the internet I skipped fist few videos on youtube as the guy looked younger. It was only later on that I realized that the younger guy was in fact Martin Kleppman. Thank you sir. I appreciate your work and currently learning from your book.

Seriously thoughtful and approachable introduction to event logs and algorithms. Thank you for this wonderful share!

Martin, I am amazed again by your clear articulation of a complex topic. Thank you!

[@rajeshnallamothu5478]

Brilliant material.

This was great! Thanks for sharing

Events + Listeners with or without some persistence of Events and ability for Listeners to consume/respond to previously persisted events. I like to think of event stream that may or may not be persisted and that has various interested parties that process events and may add other events to stream as a result. This supports highly decoupled distributed dynamic systems.

Very informative. Different perspective to the events!

On the slide"Home timeline", I think (a, "sends tweet", text) should be (b, "sends tweet", text) since it's a who is following b

Big fan of your book and all your work, Dr. Kleppmann!
I think we can still extract another specialised case from the Partially Ordered DAG + Immutable Events cell in the 2x2 table: the case in which the deterministic operations we apply over the sequence of events in each replica are also commutative. In those scenarios we don't need to rollback the state and each replica can effectively maintain its own version of an append-only log.
Would be great to hear your thoughts on this one. Cheers!

Very interesting, thank you!
What was used to create the drawings and diagrams? I like the style. Anyone know if it's a tool, or done manually? Thanks

[@rahulkulkarni1780]

Interested to know here as well

Thanks for the presentation. Under what category does CouchDb fall?

[@AlexM006]

Ever heard of the SAGA pattern?
