Thanks for setting this up! (It feels like about the right length of time has passed since the last one, so thanks for taking the initiative).
A general comment on the agenda: I feel like it’s too broad. Discussion of “Utility of EA organisations”, “rationality” or “x-risk” could each easily fill a meeting—I’d prefer we pick just one of them and list some subtopics on the agenda. That way we’ll come with a better idea of what we’re going to be talking about and hopefully avoid just rehashing what we already know.

You’re right. I changed X-risk to ‘critique nick’s four classes’, cut ‘rationality’ and postponed the discussion of utility of EA organisations.
