How to Find Us: Go into this Del Taco. We will be in the back room.

Parking is free in the lot out front or on the street nearby.

Discussion: Yvain has done it. He has gone beyond the impossible and kicked reason to the curb! He has written Peak Essay, a persuasive epic, a poem in prose of hope and despair. For there is an Enemy; its name is Moloch, the Creator, Moloch the Destroyer, Moloch the Devious Maw! We will be discussing his post Meditations on Moloch.

Recommended Reading:

• Meditations on Moloch.
• Meditations on Moloch again. Read it four times.
• Update: Misperceptions on Moloch, a follow-up post intended to dispel illusions caused by the original essay.
• Read everything Yvain has ever written, on his old blog, on Less Wrong, on his current blog.
• Don't read the comments.

No prior exposure to Less Wrong is required; this will be generally accessible. But you may be changed beyond repair, and the better for it.
