Hi there!
I’m focused on learning about the different causes of death and how to get rid of them: Viva Immortality! I organize rationality meetups in the Hampton Roads, VA area.

Note: I did not comment about publicizing events via Facebook, Twitter, nor Meetup.com, because I do not have much experience using those platforms for doing that. I also don’t really use Facebook and my Twitter is basically a read-only feed I check once every few months. Would love to hear from anyone who regularly publicizes, promotes, or otherwise advertises meetups via those platforms.
Lessons Learned: Properly Publicizing a Regional Meetup Event (also, last call to apply!)

Thanks for coming out all! The meet-up has concluded. Until next time 🙂
I have made it to fair grounds and claimed the big table. I brought a dry erase board for the sign, someone with artistic capabilities should probably redo it once they get here.
Tomorrow’s ACX Meetup will take place at Fair Grounds starting at 10:30am instead of the Pagoda due to inclement weather. Address: 806 Baldwin Ave # 2, Norfolk, VA 23517
I will get there early to secure the round table.
Solve easy problems & what’s your default query tool?
I am committing to solving at least five problems in my life per week that aren’t just regular chores. Here’s the current list: (most of this list is: I am tired of seeing my deadname around too frequently)
Done: requested name change with US Department of Education
Done: requested new card from $bank1 so my name is correct on it
Partial: Called $bank2 about name change and they are snail-mailing me the paperwork for that.
To do: Call $university1 & $college1 to do name change at both places and get updated diplomas
To do: Purchase decorative but functional window privacy film so I can raise blinds halfway on most of my windows and line the sills with plaaaaaaants!
Bonus: picked up my car from a local automotive electrician today, it now has working air conditioning again!
Challenge: switch my default informational query tool from a web browser search engine to ChatGPT (gpt4) and see how that goes. exceptions for local or timely or emergency info apply, of course.
I started this today, was very useful for some Excel specific keyboard shortcuts I needed during the workday.
