@avibryant I get monoids! And they're important for MR because they're associative, so they can be parallelized! Also, I used your QTree =D -
@sunahsuh yay! nb: it's also important for parallelism that they be commutative. -
@sunahsuh I think the right way to think about it is: associative = you can sum up in batches, then combine the batches at the end. -
@avibryant@sunahsuh a celebration is in order.
