I've been visiting the Simons Institute for one of their workshops the last few days. I got my advisor Alistair Sinclair to give me a tour. I have to say, that's an amazing space they have. A very nice building, and they've set it up wonderfully (lots of light and open working spaces). I can't believe their location on the Berkeley campus.
After my talk, someone told me (and now I forget who) that someone (Michael Goodrich?) said that the Mitzenmacher talk drinking game was that you took a drink every time a slide says "Bloom" or "cuckoo". That would be a dangerous drinking game. (It's funny because it's true.)

I'd hate to see the consequences if someone wrote a paper about creating better bloom filters with cuckoo hashing. :-)
It was me :)
Well, Suresh, I at least found it very funny.
