Where: The Westside Tavern in the upstairs Wine Bar (all ages welcome), located inside the Westside Pavillion on the second floor, right by the movie theaters. The entrance sign says “Lounge”.
Parking is free for 3 hours.
Discussion Topic: This week we will talk about Nootropics and other associated things. This will range from discussion of the biochemistry to evaluating efficacy and safety of such things. The objective isn’t to say “chemicals are the best way to make me smart!”, but rather “how can I tell if this or that chemical is worth my time and money as a means of fulfilling my goals?”
No foreknowledge or exposure to Less Wrong is necessary; this will be generally accessable and useful to anyone who values thinking for themselves. There will be open general conversation until 7:30, and that’s always a lot of good, fun, intelligent discussion!
I will bring a whiteboard with Bayes’ Theorem written on it.
