This Sunday at 11am (PDT), we're running a session of four "lightning talks" by curated LessWrong authors.

• Each talk will be 3-5 minutes followed by discussion. Afterwards, we'll have a hangout in breakout rooms. The talks will be short and focus on presenting one core idea well, rather than rushing through a lot of content.
• We want this to give top LessWrong writers an interesting space to discuss their ideas, and have more fruitful collaboration between users. Think of it like a cross between an academic colloquium and some friends chatting by a whiteboard.

Please RVSP here for the event here, so we know how many people are coming.
