Discussion article for the meetup : Monday Madison Meetup

WHEN: 16 January 2012 06:30:00PM (-0600)

WHERE: 1831 Monroe St., Madison, wi

We'll meet this week, again, at the Barrique's on Monroe. We have so many topics:

  • With any luck, Ben will scan and post the lecture notes he swiped, on potential problems with Bayesian epistemology. I'll bring my copy of Probability Theory, so it can help defend itself. ;)

  • Lots of spillover conversation from the reading group meeting, I suspect. In particular, exactly why ought one's beliefs "pay rent in anticipated expreiences"? We discussed this a fair amount, but we never named a direct argument, and none is given in the relevant post.

  • Also, by popular demand from the reading group, a round of The Resistance is clearly in order.

  • Finally, I'd like to bat around the idea of "field trips" some more. If anyone has any ideas, leave yourself a note somewhere so you can pull 'em out on Monday.

If you're in the Madison area, be sure to join the Less Wrong Madison mailing list!
