Hi, a newbie here, it’s nice to know that we have a regular meet-up nearby. I’ll surely join you guys sometime. Is there a remote option to this meet-up ?

Hi Tejas, 

We meetup once a month, discuss the latest scott's essay or an older one. Sometimes we discuss stuff from Lesswrong or the adjacent blogosphere. Occasionally we read essays in the session itself, or have a casual conversation about current affairs with an ACX/LW POV.

The EA group is active in bangalore as well AFAIK, one of the organizers attends the SSC meetup semi-regularly. The SSC group has been meeting regularly since 2018 when we discovered each other through the 2018 meetups everywhere post.
