Discussion article for the meetup : Tel Aviv, Israel Meetup - Goal Clarification with special guest Cat from CFAR

WHEN: 23 May 2013 07:00:00PM (+0300)

WHERE: TBA, In central Tel Aviv

For the first time in something like forever there will be a rationality meetup in Tel Aviv, Israel. It'll be a great chance to meet your fellow LWers from Israel.

We will be joined by very special guest Cat from CFAR who will talk about Goal Clarification - a useful technique for increasing productivity.

Please email me @ hochbergg@gmail.com about your RSVP.

If you are a LWer from Israel who'd would have liked to come, but can't due to scheduling constraints, please email me as well so we can stay in touch :)

Looking forward to spending time with LW Tel Aviv!

Wow, I've been hoping for this for a while now. :)

I really, really hope I'll be able to attend, and if I do, I can give up to two people a ride from Jerusalem. Unfortunately, I have a test that same day, and I do not yet know the time at which it will take place, so I can't RSVP quite yet.

Okay, I can make it.

Great! Looking forward to having you!

hey! i would like a ride from Jerusalem! how can i contact you?

Just sent you a Private Message. :)

We now have a location: Maze 9, Tel Aviv.

There is a nearby parking lot Balfour 6 (Big, close and somewhat expensive) Or if you'd rather not enter the center of town, there is a big, cheap parking lot at Harakevet 20 thats really easy to get to from out of town and is a 10 minute walk away.

Maze 9, Tel Aviv

(please pardon the complete digression)
So, I first parsed this as the English word "maze", which amused me enormously.
I then applied context and reparsed it as the Hebrew phrase "mah zeh?" which amused me even more.

I had the exact same reaction, except the other way 'round. :D

(Also, the street i apparently written "Mazeh", despite being an acronym.)

Awesome, Israeli LWers! I'll have to come visit some day.
