Why "Meetup : Meetup : Meetup : [...]"? Is this some kind of inside joke or just a bug?
Meetup : Paderborn Meetup, January 9th
Discussion article for the meetup : Paderborn Meetup, January 9th
Another meetup of this group. We are meeting once every two weeks. The location switches between Bielefeld and Paderborn.
The topics of this evening will be the current series "Highly Advanced Epistemology 101 for Beginners" and whatever comes to our minds.
I promised some news concerning certain plans for a Youtube-channel for rationality. Unfortunately I don't have any, but I will in a week or two.
If you happen to live in the area, feel free to drop by, we will be happy about every new face we see.

The first meetup in this city ever.
There is lots of rationality stuff to talk about and the more people come, the more interesting people will be there to meet.
Even if you are new to Lesswrong and have only read some articles, don't be to shy to show up.
I will have a sign.
Everybody is welcome!

You have to learn to be productive on demand rather than when you're in the mood for it.
That sounds like a way to end up spending your in the mood for productivity time undoing the damage you do when you try to be productive on demand.
A while ago i started to motivate myself with good old conditioning. Every time I started to work on a project I ate an M&M. (I actually got the idea from the very first lecture from what will soon be the "Center of Modern Rationality" concerning the sunken cost fallacy.) This "technique" worked suprisingly well. After a while my subconciousness seemed to become a little less reluctant to start working. My "mod" was better. Could be a placebo effect of course, and could only work on myself, but its cost nothing to try. Let me know please if someone actually does.
The reason why we are supposed to be able to prove, that two particles are identical, is because quantum mechanics allows us to make an experiment, which has a certain outcome only! if the two particles taking part in the experiment are identical (the amplitudes add up). However, there is no prove that the amplitudes of "P1 at L1, P2 at L2" and "P1 at L2, P2 at L1" can't add up, even if P1 and P2 are different particles. Its only what quantum mechanics tells us. Because, although quantum mechanics is a brilliant and most successful model of the real world, it is still a model. Therefore the particles could have different properties, which are ignored by quantum mechanics but which are very real. Consequently the experiment still only "fails to establish a difference" as Bob said.

What do you have in mind for this?
It is supposed to be a way to spread the ideas of rationality to a bigger population, in a way that is as entertaining as possible. Any specifics will be developed during the meetup. I can publish these specifics in the next meetup's description. If anybody wants to take part in the development of the Youtube-channel then or even now, please contact me.
