Today: Giving a workshop/tutorial on using paper and tape to explore riemannian manifolds. Trying to work out in what order to present the info and what questions I want answered. The purpose of this is to crowdsource on my personal mathematics research. link.

Also Today: Implementing title/menu screen on my tetris and space invaders clones. I think they will be done after that.

This Week: finishing up the AI class videos.

This month: Writing some more simple videogames as I scale up my skill towards more complex stuff. For the purpose of general programming skill and artistic expression.

Also this month: Restarting the local LW meetup chapter. Because I want to be awesome and happy and no one else is going to make it happen.

This year: Trying to stir my classmates up into a startup mood so that I don't have to get a job again.

Theres many more, but that's most of the interesting stuff.

Oh! I'm in Seattle. Do you guys have a mailing list? There's at least one LWer here who visits BC regularly and he might be interested in attending.

Yes we have a mailing list: google groups vancouver_rationalists, but it's closed to the public for some reason. Making it easier to join is the first order of business.

I'm that regular BC visitor from Seattle jsalvatier mentioned. Can you tell me when the group becomes public so I can join? I'll be up there Dec 18th and Dec 22st to Jan 2nd.

Hey, I think the list is open now.

I'll keep you in mind and let you know when we are ready.
