Suggest events like Manifest
Ṁ5,000 / 5500
bounty left

I’m wondering what other manifest-like events are out there. I’ll give up to 5k mana to whoever suggests a similar multi-day event that I attend and enjoy.

Some tips:

  • Tell me a bit about events you’ve personally been to, and what the experience was like.

  • Within driving distance of the SF Bay Area is best, but anywhere in North America works too.

  • Big, multi day events with lots of time to meet people are what I’m looking for, but I may give smaller rewards for smaller events that I enjoy

  • I’m looking for groups of people who are a bit nerdy, enjoy challenging the status quo, and are fun to be around. I’ve noticed that lots of EA / rationality folks fit this description, but I’m open to anything.

  • my interests include: software development, machine learning, economics, personal development, creative writing, and game development. but I’m generally down for a good time, so stuff outside of those interests is fine

I’ll also be awarding 100+ mana to high quality suggestions, thanks for the help!

I’m 98% certain you’ve already thought of it but I may as well mention LessOnline which happens the weekend before manifest at lightcone. (Maybe by some miracle you will be free one week earlier?)

I'm 90% certain you've already thought of it but I may as well mention EAG and EAGx, there's usually at least one in the Bay Area each year

Berkeley Thursday Rationalist dinners. Shattuck avenue. Dinner and conversation. And then afterwards people go to a nearby grouphouse and talk further.

Sooo, after some talks I’ve managed to make Manifest work with the schedule, so I’ll be attending this year 😄 (also doing LessOnline and the camp thing during the week)

Despite that, I’ll be keeping this market up and still paying out, since I’d still like to know about other events.

@TonyPepperoni alternatively (hear me out) you could just come to Manifest? 🧡

let the records show: it turns out I had the most convincing suggestion here after all 💅

important bounty 🍕

okay first of all: how much does it clash between commitments and time zones? can I prop up my phone for a video call bidirectional livestream so you can join us for some bits? :)
