Come get old-fashioned with us and read The Sequences at Lighthaven! We’ll show up, mingle, do intros, then split off into discussion groups. Please do the reading beforehand—it should take no more than 20 minutes.
This meetup is for people who are new to The Sequences and would enjoy a group experience, and also for those who’ve been around LessWrong for a while and want a refresher.
We provide dinner! We order pizza-of-the-day from Sliver (vegetarian and vegan). Please RSVP to this event so we know how many pizzas to get.
Doors open at 6pm (we’ll let you in through the front gate on Telegraph Ave)
At 6:30, we’ll do intros and announcements, then split up into discussion groups.
Pizza will be served around 7:30pm, after which we’ll hang out by the fireside as late as we like.
If you’d like to help us keep dinner going, you can donate here (dinner costs about $200 each time, we recommend $5-$15 per person).
You can come without having done the readings (we do want you to join) but you will have to do a punishment. And you still have to catch up by reading the essays during the meetup.
If you’re having trouble finding the front entrance, you can call me (Diego) at (eight-one-eight) five-eight-eight eight-oh-three-four, and I’ll help you navigate.
Some questions to ask yourself about the essays as you read them
What’s the most important point in the essay?
What’s the weakest point in the essay? Or what is the essay wrong about?
Can you think of a way to apply the ideas in this essay to your own life?
