Singularity Summit 2010 Less Wrong Meetup
It's been a whole year (almost) and the Singularity Summit is upon us again. This time, instead of having a Meetup for only a few hours, we're going to have a continuous meetup lasting the entire length of the Summit. We will have a room adjacent to the lobby with a sign proclaiming "Less Wrong Meetup." We can discuss the topics brought up in the Summit, exploring their implications, and just having fun with a large concentration of rationalists in an intellectually stimulating environment.
NY-area OB/LW meetup Saturday 10/3 7 PM
Since lots of us anticipate being in New York this weekend for Singularity Summit 2009, it seems like a great time to hold a NY-area Overcoming Bias/Less Wrong meetup! Whether you're attending the summit or not, do consider dropping by the 92nd Street Marriott any time after 7PM, where you will find a lively group of rationalists discussing and dissecting the day's events, and the ideas presented by the summit speakers. We'll be meeting in the hotel's internal restaurant, which should be open until well after midnight.
RSVP at the Facebook Group or see this event in Google Calendar.
A final thought
I would like to thank all of those people who voted my last post down into the negative numbers allowing me to exploit a flaw in this sites design. I was really getting bored of trying to figure a way to get a karma score of 20. So I toast all those who helped me achieve it in record time.
Now on to the meat of the issue, I thought when I ran into this group that it would be what it claimed a site devoted to refining rationality, I could not have been more wrong. This site is not concerned with rationality or improving it but rather self adulation. You people are not concerned with being rational just imagining you are rational and then congratulating yourselves on your own self deception. I will be totally honest here this little group therapy session you guys have going on is intellectually repugnant. You all should be ashamed of yourselves that you have nothing better to do then congratulate yourselves on non-accomplishments.
If any of you were truly intelligent you would feel no need to engage in this behavior and your leader would not be a man who dropped out of grade school. So enjoy your idol of rationality and self-proclaimed genius if any of you decide that rationality is of interest I suggest you try learning some math a feat that is beyond the abilities of your leader. Lest of any of you doubt it he has never published a technical paper. All but one of his papers is self published (so as to avoid critique) and the only math that he demonstrates knowledge of is freshman statistics.
Cheers
