Lightning Talk: Tweeting Nonsense with Markov

Video: https://www.windycityrails.org/videos/2015/#23

Markov chains a lot easier they're nice enough quality to get rid of one of my favorite plays this year very, very, very strongly “technology” vibe. Connecting them to Twitter too :d sadly, not passed had to see you, and you won't hurt me because you're the ones with too broad a brush. Fun! to research and development easier.

3. Markov Chains
4. "a random process that 
 undergoes memoryless transitions 
 from one state to another 
 on a state space" — lightly paraphrased from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markov_chain
5. "it is what it is and it is good" { "it"=>["is", "is", "is"], "is"=>["what", "and", "good"], "what"=>["it"], "and"=>["it"] } "is what it is good" "is and it is what it is and it is and it is what it is what it is what it is what it is what it is and it is what it is and it is and it is"
6. memoryless
 each transition depends only on current state, and
 is independent of all previous states random
 armnod in a state space
 there’s a discrete (though possibly infinite) 
 set of possible states states
 it has describable, discrete states
