This event is aimed broadly at anyone who is enthusiastic about making the world a better place with science and technology, but in particular fans of rationality, effective altruism, and blogs like Astral Codex Ten and LessWrong.
In classic unconference fashion there will be mildly-structured conversation about whatever you like, as well as plentiful food & drink, and a cake with a picture of a vaccine on it.
We’ll kick things off around 2pm, but don’t worry too much about missing the start. However, do register so we can gauge attendance.
