WHERE: 412 W. Elm St, Urbana, IL

There are a lot of rationality skills applicable to cooking. On the one hand, this is nice for cooking. On the other hand, it's an interesting example of how little we use explicit rationality by default, and what we do instead.

Also, I may cook some food for A/B testing.

Out of curiosity, how big is this meetup? I used to run the Purdue meetup, and I view the two universities as similar, so I'm curious what this meetup is like.

Two regular attendees. Two people who sometimes show up. One person who's new and whose attendance rate hasn't been well-established.

Roughly similar to what our meetup was like. We once had 8 people show up, but 4 was about average.
