Meetup : Less Wrong Sydney 16th July Event for Less Wrong
Have not been to a meetup before - can I just show up or is there somewhere to sign up or something?
Just show up! Only one guy bites, you'll be warned about him. Strongly suggest you join the FB group in case you get lost though - http://www.facebook.com/groups/219526434802422/

Rational Toothpaste: A Case Study
I'm going to start using this article as a kicking off point for new people to "get" less wrong...
Oh oh oh and as always, look up "Less wrong - Sydney" on FB. PM me if you can't find it. If you don't have FB, PM your email and we'll keep you posted.

Meetup : Sydney meetup - Biased pandemic and other games
Yep, I'll be there.
How many people do you need to play these games?
I was told around 4 or more? We had ~7 people last meeting so I don't see why it would not work. Partially the "other games" bit is because there is an upper limit of how many people can play, so we need to have side activities!

Did you guys discuss or are you planning on discussing luke prog's article on procrastination?
Last time we did - and we will probably have some short follow up.

Should be worth noting that what I thought was the James squire brewhouse is the king street brewhouse, identifiable by numerous blue umbrellas with the blue tounge logo. I'm here now. Also, of anyone could confirm the existence of the "James squire brewhouse, I would be interested.
I'm wearing a blue tie, white shirt and have an IPad propped up with the less wrong logo

When I was having a lot of trouble getting out of bed reasonably promptly in the mornings: practice getting out of bed - but not after just having woken up, that's what I was having trouble with in the first place. No, during the day, having been up for a while, go lie in bed for a couple of minutes with the alarm set, then get up when it goes off. Also, make this a pleasant routine with stretching, smiling and deep breathing.
I found this idea on the net here, which may have more details: http://www.stevepavlina.com/blog/2006/04/how-to-get-up-right-away-when-your-alarm-goes-off/
I tried it and it seemed to help a lot for a while, and I feel more in control of my weekend mornings.
I agree absolutely - however the effect wanes. I found the behavior would go extinct maybe a week or so after a 20 minute session of doing this. Reading this has inspired me to do the straightforward thing and just practice weekly.
