MIRIxUW workshop on Saturday March 7

[Sam Eisenstat]

Hi everyone,

Last week didn't work out for me, so the next workshop will be this Saturday, March 7. We will meet at 12 at Vegetarian Fast Food (they do also have non-vegetarian food) in the UW Plaza for lunch. Around 12:30-1, we will head over to the UW campus for the workshop. I aim to hold it in MC 1085, but it is somewhat likely that it will be occupied so we may have to go elsewhere. I will post to the list what room we are in for people who want to join us after lunch or later.

We will start with any questions people have about logic, to help people who are learning logic/model theory/computability. In particular, people who have been reading Boolos' Computability and Logic can bring up anything from that text that they want to discuss. The rest of the workshop will focus on continued discussion of A model of UDT with a concrete prior over logical statements,  Non-Omniscience, Probabilistic Inference, and Metamathematics,  Logical Prior Probability, and Questions of Reasoning under Logical Uncertainty, and see what further directions we can take this work in.

Best,

Sam

Vegetarian fast food is closed Saturdays.
Any suggestions for a backup?

The event in 1085 is ending soon. Our first backup is either of the tall lecture halls nearby. I can come up with a further backup if those are occupied.
