Meetup : Madison
Discussion article for the meetup : Madison
With the intent of being the first of many regular meetups, let’s get together on Tuesday. I plan to conduct a few exercises on brainstorming, including the “alternatives procedure” that Anna Salamon taught at the rationality minicamp. Mostly, though: discussion, meeting people, and assigning names, faces and personalities to usernames.
If you’d like to come but this time doesn’t work for you, say something. I plan on doing this at least once every two weeks, so we should try to settle on a time that accommodates everyone in the long run.
Agreed—a weekend meetup would work better for me, too (coming from west side of Milwaukee). Although, with baby and business, would only be an occasional attendee
Steven[0461] and I would like to come up from Chicagoland for a Madison meet-up sometime, but we could only make it on a weekend. We would only be occasional attendees at any rate, but perhaps you could also do a weekend meet-up every once in a while, in addition to whatever weekday you settle on. Also, the date in the title doesn’t currently match the date in the text.
ha, ahaha. I was thinking of the chord, clearly. :/
I am moving to Madison in September and I planned to start a meetup myself. Awesome!
Sweet! I’ll take all the help I can get in planning for these meetups.
I’ll probably come
Great! I’ll see you there. :)
Heh: I should have posted this a while ago, but there is a Less Wrong Madison mailing list
Is there anywhere I could read about Anna Salamon’s “alternatives procedure” prior to today’s meetup?
None I know of. And, of course, we didn’t actually get to it today, either. I’m sure we’ll do this in the future.
I can’t make it to this one, but I’ll be a regular in general.
