Weekly LW Meetups: Zurich, Paris, Seattle, Waterloo
There are upcoming irregularly scheduled Less Wrong meetups in:
Notice for the Mountain View/Tortuga meetup: The Mountain View meetup has moved to *Mondays* (still at 7pm, still at Tortuga); and over the next few weeks will present pieces of the “Detaching from Sunk Costs” rationality kata currently under development.
Cities with regularly scheduled meetups: Austin, Berkeley, Cambridge, MA, Irvine, London, Marin, CA (uses the Bay Area List), Mountain View, New York, Ottawa, Oxford, San Francisco, Toronto, Washington, DC, and West Los Angeles.
If you’d like to talk with other LW-ers face to face, and there is no meetup in your area, consider starting your own meetup; it’s easy (more resources here). Check one out, stretch your rationality skills, and have fun!
If you missed the deadline and wish to have your meetup featured, you can reach me on gmail at frank dot c dot adamek.
In addition to the handy sidebar of upcoming meetups, a meetup overview will continue to be posted on the front page every Friday. These will be an attempt to collect information on all the meetups happening in the next weeks. The best way to get your meetup featured is still to use the Add New Meetup feature, but you’ll now also have the benefit of having your meetup mentioned in a weekly overview. These overview posts will be moved to the discussion section when the new post goes up.
Please note that for your meetup to appear in the weekly meetups feature, you need to post your meetup before the Friday before your meetup!
If you check Less Wrong irregularly, consider subscribing to one or more city-specific mailing list in order to be notified when an irregular meetup is happening: Chicago, Helsinki, London, Madison, WI, Melbourne, Pittsburgh, Seattle, Southern California (Los Angeles/Orange County area), St. Louis, Vancouver.
Frank, again the same problem, third time in a row now (fixed). Edit diff page shows that incorrect rendering corresponds to local URLs starting without leading slash, while fixed page has leading slashes:
Okay, this is improving my understanding of the problem. I had been thinking that the problem was occasional and transient, when it appears someone else has been generously fixing the links for me. Thanks very much for the explanation and the fix! I’ll make sure this problem doesn’t arise in the next post.
The West LA meetup is slightly irregular this week, in that we are meeting at 7:30 rather than 7.
