Rationality Reading Club: LessWrong Posts

**Rationality Reading Club** [Rationality](https://www.lesswrong.com/tag/rationality) is the art of thinking in ways that lead to accurate beliefs and good decisions. In this reading club, we periodically propose texts (articles, book chapters) related to rationality and discuss them informally and casually during a videoconference meeting. This week, we will discuss **these blog posts:** * [The Cluster Structure of Thingspace](https://www.lesswrong.com/s/SGB7Y5WERh4skwtnb/p/WBw8dDkAWohFjWQSk) (Yudkowsky) * [Disguised Queries](https://www.lesswrong.com/s/SGB7Y5WERh4skwtnb/p/4FcxgdvdQP45D6Skg) (Yudkowsky) * [What is aging](https://nintil.com/what-is-aging) (José Luis Rincón) **How it works** The meeting takes place via [Jitsi](https://meet.jit.si/) and lasts one hour. After initial introductions, we discuss each proposed reading in turn. Although the readings are in English, the meeting is conducted in Spanish. At the end, we decide on next week’s readings—typically either book chapters or blog posts from the [Sequences](https://www.lesswrong.com/rationality), [Scott Alexander](https://www.astralcodexten.com/), or other authors in the rationalist space. To maintain a pleasant and constructive atmosphere, we ask you to: * **Prior preparation:** We expect you to have read the material. * **Constructive participation:** Respect others while subjecting all ideas to rational critique. * **Conciseness:** Make clear and brief comments without dominating the conversation, so everyone has an opportunity to participate.
