This week, we'll be continuing on in our meetup series of reading the new sequence, Highly Advanced Epistemology for Beginners. Specifically, we're upto Casual Reference, almost at the end of the Causality/Physics subsequence. If this has gotten a bit stale for you, though, watch this space in the coming weeks for some new stuff we're planning. Oh yes, plans are happening. Muahahah, etc. See you there! -Sohum

Meetup! This week, we'll be continuing our reading group of Highly Advanced Epistemology 101 For Beginners. These are explicitly designed as introductory posts, and this is just our fourth session, so dive right in with us if you're new!

We'll be covering Stuff That Makes Stuff Happen today. We'll also have a short administrative session at the end; let's say around 11:45.

See you there!

We'll be covering The Useful Idea of Truth and Appreciating Cognitive Algorithms, this week. If you're feeling explicitly keen, read ahead to the two minor posts; I don't think we'll explicitly have a session talking about those, but they're good to read anyway.

See you there!

I think it may be a Karma thing. I think you need 20 Karma to post to Main, and I think adding a meetup posts to Main, so I think Adding a meetup requires you to have 20 Karma. I created a new dummy account with 0 Karma to check, and I couldn't make a Meetup either, so it's not just you.

Thanks for checking that! I apparently have 5 karma now, and the Add A New Meetup button has appeared, so the karma-required seems to be there instead.

Glad to help get awareness back out, that's what these posts are for. How does it sound to schedule a meetup and post it? I'll put it in the list, and I put meetups for the following week into the headline.

Looks like Douglas_Reay made the meetup post http://lesswrong.com/meetups/f7 , so cheers!

The button is next to your total karma score on the right sidebar, under "Create new article". It's a special post type which probably also adds the location to the front page "Upcoming meetups" google map pins.

Yea, I'm not seeing it. "Create new article", "Preferences", and "Log out".
