Anders Huitfeldt (Anders_H) will give a presentation called "In Defence of the Cathedral", inspired by the discussion between blogger Scott Alexander and neoreactionaries. If you have time, you may want to first read Scott Alexander's essay "Reactionary Philosophy in an enormous, planet-sized nutshell", but this is not required.
Cambridge/Boston-area Less Wrong meetups start at 2pm, and have an alternating location:
2nd and 4th Sunday meetups are in MIT's building 66 at 25 Ames St, room 156. Room number subject to change based on availability; signs will be posted with the actual room number.
Meetups on other weeks are at Citadel in Porter Sq, at 98 Elm St, apt 1, Somerville.
