Statistics & Feedback 2023
In 2023 there were 24 public events (not counting book club, statistics study group and meta-meetup). Some interesting facts and graphs.
Statistics Study Group
Goal: Achieve mastery of the material covered in a standard “Statistics 101” college course. Mastery means something a little beyond just being able to theoretically pass an exam, rather actually getting a good intuitive grasp of the material.
Book Club
At the “Book Club” we read books and discuss them. For example “The Scout Mindset” by Julia Galef.
Event Feedback Form
Feedback forms as PDFs and Google Form links.
Statistics & Feedback 2022
Rationality Freiburg started in May of 2022 and we had lots of fantastic events this year. 15 to be precise! On average 7 people attended every meetup, 2 of them completely new. The maximum was 12 people and the minimum 3 people.
Our Social Contract
What is the purpose of our meetups? Surprisingly, not an easy question to answer. For me, it is having a place and time where I am challenged, surprised and intellectually stimulated. Where I feel safe to share a part of myself. Where I can learn and grow.
LWCW (LessWrong Community Weekend) 2022, Berlin
“Who wants to brag about something they did last week?”
That was the question posed to the entire circle of people sitting in a park in the center of Berlin. And then one by one people started bragging and everyone else cheered them on.
Hiking with Karlsruhe Rationality
The first joint Karlsruhe Freiburg rationality event was a beautiful hike around Bad Herrenalb, near Karlsruhe.
