There seem to be quite a few new Rationality interested people in Zürich now. Come and meet us! No program.

This month's Social Meetup is on as usual!

Facebook event page: https://www.facebook.com/events/2092157011008864/

Social Meetups are casual get-togethers held on the third Friday of each month. They are informal events where we sit around and chat over a few drinks and a meal.

Where? The Bull & Bear Tavern, 347 Flinders Lane, Melbourne

When? Friday 21st October, starting from 6:30pm. Feel free to arrive later on!

Dinner? The B&B serves reasonable pub food, and we will usually share a couple of bowls of wedges or similar. A few of us typically go for a late dinner after we leave the B&B - usually at Father's Office, which offers late night dining at half price.

Contact? Any issues or questions, contact Richard on 0421231789

Hope to see you there!

Meeting is on 4th floor of the Performing Arts and Humanities Building. Permit parking designations do not apply on weekends, so park pretty much wherever you want.

We'll be meeting to tell stories about when we tried to solve a problem in our lives, and how it went.

For help getting into the building, please call (or text, with a likely-somewhat-slower response rate): three zero one, three five six, five four two four.

Format:

We meet and start hanging out at 6:15, but don’t officially start doing the meetup topic until 6:45-7 to accommodate stragglers. Usually there is a food order that goes out before we start the meetup topic.

About these meetups:

The mission of the SF LessWrong meetup is to provide a fun, low-key social space with some structured interaction, where new and non-new community members can mingle and have interesting conversations. Everyone is welcome.

We explicitly encourage people to split off from the main conversation or diverge from the topic if that would be more fun for them (moving side conversations into a separate part of the space if appropriate). Meetup topics are here as a tool to facilitate fun interaction, and we certainly don’t want them to inhibit it.

We will be meeting in the courtyard to hang out, play games, and engage in fun conversation.

Upcoming meetups:

• Oct. 23: Communication
• Oct. 30: Halloween Party

We meet every week or every other week. Actual date, time and location are announced on VK and Meetup.com. Applied rationality workshop: vk event. Regular meetings: vk community, vk event. Meetup.com page.

We’ll be meeting to work on projects!

Near the beginning, we’ll go around and talk about what we’ll be working on, then do a couple of pomodoros quietly. At some point we’ll break into general conversations and socializing.

Note: most our members join meetups via other channels. Still, the correlation between "found out about Moscow meetups via lesswrong.com" and "is a great fit for our community" is very high. So we're posting just a short link to the hackpad document with the schedule here instead of the full translation of the announcement into English.

Pad with the details about 09.10.2016 meetup.

We're meeting at the "Kocherga" anticafe, as usual.
