a morning/afternoon in flux
Meet me at Lighthaven in the morning (starting 10am) for coworking, at 12:45 for lunch at The Butcher's Son, or early afternoon at Constellation/Downtown Berkeley BART for the bike adventure!
Come be productive together! In a better world I'd be working on SAGA stuff or blogging, but I fear I might be writing the AI safety trivia...
I used to say The Butcher's Son was my favorite restaurant in Berkeley. Now I don't say that as much, but it's not obvious to me which restaurant is better...
Leaving from Downtown Berkeley and exploring! I'm planning to rent a bike and you can too. We might go to the Berkeley Marina, Solano Ave, or beyond... I'm also interested in doing some thrifting / fashion improvement, if this arises naturally...
Text me if you want to join and have ideas / if you can only make it starting at a particular time!
an evening in conflux
Festivities at Lighthaven starting at 6pm! Ideally come before 8pm, but coming later is also totally fine. I will try to stick to the schedule, but there may still be flux, as per the will of the conflux.
I'm planning to order pizza but this is only because I'm fundamentally uncreative, so lmk if you have any better ideas!
Warmup: How many of the seven Anthropic cofounders can you name?
run by Jo Jiao
We'll vote on which to do!
run by Ian Habich
(if sufficient interest)
by having fun and making memories, we will increase our positive associations with living in berkeley. this will increase the chance that we live in berkeley in the future, which will increase the chance that we do impactful ai safety work, which will decrease the chance ai kills everyone, etc…
also, it seems good to have fun in life regardless. and you get to say goodbye to me before i move back to the far-off land of menlo park, california!

Tuesday, September 8
It'll be all day, but I bet most programming will be in the evening. There will probably be dinner.
Lighthaven, 2740 Telegraph Ave, Berkeley ↗Do you have a preference between Bayes Ground/Median/Attic/outside? How many people are you hoping for? How excited are you to run this?
This information is private and will not be shared.
The event is free, but if you want to chip in to defray costs, that would be appreciated! For context, this event is more expensive for me than other events I've run because Lighthaven is charging me $30/person.
