The door from the Queen's Park subway entrance is unlocked, so use that entrance. I'll be waiting outside University Avenue entrance until 14:15

MARS building locked due to protest. Meet outside West entrance on University Avenue. I'm still wearing the neon jacket.

Because some of you were asking, here's the yearly review template I use: https://alexvermeer.com/8760hours/

Its integrated into productivity website I use: https://intend.do/?r=u0hywhp1rz

To find the meetup, look for a woman wearing a neon jacket. I am ill, so my partner is running the meetup in my place. She'll be wearing the neon jacket and handing out name tags.

MARS is closed due to the Santa Claus Parade, so we're going to gather nearby at https://what3words.com/fizzle.relating.title

which is outside the Mercatto cafe. I'll still be wearing a neon jacket. We'll relocate to somewhere warmer at 14:30

I forgot my neon yellow jacket, so look for a black baseball cap instead.

FYI, Terraform Industries published a new blog post about the cost of their hydrogen electrolysis, which is significantly less than you're linked estimate of around $7/kg. They claim they can get $3/kg using current legacy solar, but with current solar cost trends continuing (which I know you're skeptical of) could reach $1.12/kg. They accomplish this by optimizing the cost/efficiency trade-off of the electrolysis setup.

I'm assuming Casey Handmer is being overly optimistic, but I can't tell by how much.

I am irrationally/disproportionately insecure about discussing my mediocre/generic goals in a public forum, so I'd rather discuss this in-person at the meetup. :apologetic-emoji

I think David's primary concern is choosing the goals in "systematically finds a better path to goals" which he wants to name "meta-rationality" for the sake of discussion, but I think could be phrased as part of the rationality process?
