Reply to this comment if you’re interested in being part of a rationalist house in London, UK.
Are there requirements other than 'find this thread'?
Not for registering interest. As things move forward, we'll pool more information and preferences, getting into the details more.
I would advise anybody who's interested to make a point of coming to a couple of meetups, but if that's very inconvenient, still register interest anyway.
It is generally also a good idea to come and meet us at a Meetup.
That does sound like a good idea. Browsing the google groups, the next occasion seems to be the CZE outing on 1. Sep. (http://lesswrong.com/r/discussion/lw/ie0/meetup_comfort_zone_expansion_outing_london/).
Would that meetup be suitable, or is it more practical rather than a getting to know people meeting? Or maybe it could be both? I might wait and go to the next meetup after that.
Come to this one; the practical session may indeed also allow you to get a feel for things, and there will probably be socialising afterwards. On or before Sunday 15th September, there will also be a designated general social meetup; keep posted and turn up to that too.
Looking forward to meeting ya!
Yes
I'd like to know how things are working down in London, although the likelihood of my being involved is small. Please post a few update every now and then :-)
Yes.
I know I've never met anyone from LW IRL, but I'm thinking of moving to London soon for work purposes, and I think this sounds like a fantastic idea.
Interested.
Would love to support the project and be an occasional visitor, though I don't live there.
It makes me sad that this was downvoted. Thanks for your response! :)
Maybe someone (possibly representative of others) has an unvoiced objection to the idea of "satellite" members? That could be worth discussing.
nod
I'm potentially interested in this.
Any progress with this? I'm probably going to hang out briefly with the NYC group when I visit there in August.
It's been stalled for a while, partly because a month after this post I got busy with university away from London so wasn't around to take the lead on this. (I was never planning to move in on a permanent basis for a while due to university, but was/am interested in the times I'm not away e.g. the summer, and would like this to succeed even if I don't directly benefit in the short-term.) I'll be back in London in time for this Sunday's meetup, so I might mention it then, even if only to see why it didn't happen. But if it goes ahead in future, it will probably be better if someone permanently in London (and maybe looking to move in sooner and permanently) took the lead on coordinating interested parties to meetup, discuss expectations, and do viewings. But I still might be able to help from the side.
Oh. Yes.
Aye!
Willing and partially able to move in and support if support will be reflected in kind, but currently in new zealand.
Programmer with british citizenship, lacking sufficient employment or savings to buy in, currently working on personal things. So, my support's conditional on either lining up a super cool job in London or finishing one of my things and either making money from it or, failing that, admitting that I will never be super cool and diverting power back to web development to become employable again.
