The meetup was a success, with a total of 4 people attending.

There's a quality of conversation among people who aspire to be less wrong, that is refreshing and energizing. To give you an idea of the range:

thinkthatthrough.wordpress.com - You are an atheist

3quartsdaily

Shor's Algorithm for factoring primes is squarely in P.

Lattice based crypto

It's totally ok to say I don't know.

Lob's Paradox

Sam Harris's Moral Landscape - and how he didn't clarify his premises enough.

Mathematics jokes ∞! = √2Ⲡ

Rationally Speaking

HPMoR

lesswrong on freenode

Selenium SST

Zero 7's Somersault

The Quantum Machine experiment by O'Donnell

just to name a few topics.

An excellent time was had by everyone.

Just to clarify: the website is 3quarksdaily.com. :)

I enjoyed it. I hope to attend next time too.

And here is the response to that Sam Harris wrote to some critiques of his postion on how science can answer moral questions: http://www.samharris.org/site/full_text/a/
