Meet inside The Shops at Waterloo Town Square - we will congregate in the indoor seating area next to the Your Independent Grocer with the trees sticking out in the middle of the benches (pic) at 7:00 pm for 15 minutes, and then head over to my nearby apartment's amenity room. If you've been around a few times, feel free to meet up at the front door of the apartment instead. Note that I've recently moved! The correct location is near Allen station.
Discussion
On February 12, 2013, Scott wrote the inaugural Slate Star Codex post, You’re probably wondering why I’ve called you here today. Then he started posting lots of other good posts on the blog, and didn't stop for almost a decade.
Last year, we had the 2013 retrospective. It's now 2024, so it's time for another one, focusing on his 2014 output!
You'll find a list of all most of them below - I took out the housekeeping posts and the link posts, leaving just the bloggy stuff (I hope), and got some folks who've been around for a while to indicate which posts they've enjoyed reading. If you want to see a complete archive, scroll to almost the very bottom of the post here.
We'll discuss the articles that individuals have read, and also have freeform discussion.
One article that sounds interesting with 5 or more endorsements
One article that sounds interesting with 2-4 endorsements
One article that sounds interesting with 0-1 endorsements
Be prepared to give a quick summary of the ones you read at the meetup! If you read an article that's a bit short or feels a bit like a flop, please cheat and read another one so we have something interesting to discuss ;)
