This is why DC doesn't do detailed meetup reports.
We do keep brief logs after every meetup, though. We agreed not to mention who attended a meetup (the person posting the log has to bite the bullet, but only them) for privacy reasons, and just post one or two sentences about what happened.
I was guessing that's the main reason. Thanks for sharing that log. It really gave be a better idea of the kinds of things that go on at LW meetups.
How often would you say something happens at one of your meetups that would be WORTH a discussion-level post, even if nobody is willing to do it? (By that I mean valuable insights worth sharing or open questions raised that would generate good discussion)
Please be aware that our meetup is not necessarily typical; in fact, I'm pretty sure it isn't. I get the strong impression, from talking to organizers and attending meetups in other cities, that our meetups are more casual and involve fewer presentations than most meetups do.
That said, I'm not sure how often we have insights worth discussing, in part because I haven't been attending meetups much over the past few months... I think it varies a lot.
