Just show up! Only one guy bites, you’ll be warned about him. Strongly suggest you join the FB group in case you get lost though - http://www.facebook.com/groups/219526434802422/
I’m going to start using this article as a kicking off point for new people to “get” less wrong...
Oh oh oh and as always, look up “Less wrong—Sydney” on FB. PM me if you can’t find it. If you don’t have FB, PM your email and we’ll keep you posted.
I was told around 4 or more? We had ~7 people last meeting so I don’t see why it would not work. Partially the “other games” bit is because there is an upper limit of how many people can play, so we need to have side activities!
As you enter look for a white sign on the table and a guy in a red tie
Last time we did—and we will probably have some short follow up.
I’m wearing a blue tie, white shirt and have an IPad propped up with the less wrong logo
Should be worth noting that what I thought was the James squire brewhouse is the king street brewhouse, identifiable by numerous blue umbrellas with the blue tounge logo. I’m here now. Also, of anyone could confirm the existence of the “James squire brewhouse, I would be interested.
It is today- I should have specified.
Aside from google, and searching on this website, life hacker and reddit are possible sources of information…
Well hopefully we get the momentum!
Proposing to change the time to day before this (Family reasons). Any objections?
We are all lurkers at some point. DW about it.
neither was really all that interesting, in that I don’t see an opportunity to learn from them (Out of control perhaps?). From the perspective of “what I really would have liked to have figured out earlier”, not getting obsessed with measures versus guides is what I saw as most pertinent.
EDIT: Looking over it again, there really is a whole bunch of general phooey and borderline woo here. Unrestrained pattern droppings is a regular issue for me, but this is a pretty bad.
Waking up: I found brute force works best—Old style alarm clock with clanging bells placed on opposite end of room. This trumped all sorts of complex maneuvers, including training self to have a fixed pattern response to an certain iPhone alarm.
Slight + 1 on that exercise clothes thing: I wear nice comfy track pants and a singlet to bed, and leave my sneakers at the foot of my bed in the morning. I don’t even give myself the choice to put on the task specific clothing!
Cancel white jacket, we are sitting in corner
Do try. As said I will be there (and presumably at least one associate) regardless, If only to reinforce that I will attend regardless.
Probably worth noting that last time the majority of attendees where lurkers.
I agree absolutely—however the effect wanes. I found the behavior would go extinct maybe a week or so after a 20 minute session of doing this. Reading this has inspired me to do the straightforward thing and just practice weekly.
