Meetup : Utrecht: More on effective altruism
Discussion article for the meetup : Utrecht: More on effective altruism
Our last meetup went well and we hope to keep the momentum growing. As of yet, we have no specific agenda items. Thus, if you have a topic in the Less Wrong / Effective Altruism / rationality scope, please add a comment below. Since this group is still rather young and informal, we'll use the opportunity to meet each other, share opinions on EA/LW and share our desires for what we want the group to become. There will also be plenty of semi-serious discussion over relevant issues. We will meet in a cafĂŠ called De Winkel van Sinkel, which is 400m walking distance from Utrecht Centraal. The meetup will be held in English. I will be in front of the cafĂŠ with a a sign that says "LW" on it at 17:00. If you have trouble finding us you can call me at 0684140766. We have a meetup.com presence of Lesswrong/Effective Altruism Nederland where you can click attend if you want to join: http://www.meetup.com/Less-Wrong-Nederland/events/173124892/ Additionally we also have a facebook group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/262932060523750/

Imma Six asked me to post this here. She's taking the time to prepare a pittle presentation for us so thanks a lot!
"I will prepare an introduction for a discussion about ethical career choice. I think that's an important topic that many of us are thinking about. To get a high quality discussion, please have a look at http://80000hours.org/ before the meetup to see what it's about. 80.000hours is an organisation that does research and helps people to have a high impact career.
This article on 80.000hours proposes career options. http://80000hours.org/blog/314-...
Questions that may be discussed: - How do you build career capital (e.g. useful skills)? - How do you plan a high impact career? - How do you find a balance between making the world a better place on and your own hapiness? ... - What would you like to know? How can we help you? Enter a comment here"
I made a mistake and set the time to 10am, fixed now. Thanks Imma for pointing out!
Now actually fixed, apparently didn't go through at first.
