Meeting suggestion: I’m particularly in love with the idea of formalizing chavruta pairs/triplets for specific learning/winning-at-life goals. (Studying, Weight Loss, Poker....) I find I already have many insane rivals, who are very good at dragging me into anti-logic and then beating me with experience, but none that are actually interested in winning. And studying in a vaccuum usually leads to lots of unrelated open tabs on wikipedia, at least for me.
Actually, I think it would be beneficial to talk about social-based hacks in general. Go all meta on why we’re doing meetups at all. We’re making an explicit point of gathering socially, so clearly we think there is some value to it...
YES.

I’ll have to look into that more, that sounds awesome! I had a vague idea of doing something like that too.
