Hi All,
I think the Occam's razor discussion worked well, though we determined that Solomonoff induction could definitely use good layman's introduction. The repetition variant didn't work very well and several people said they didn't really get much out of playing repetition. Time's up was a fun game.
Here are some things I promised to link to:
Someone mentioned they hadn't read
That Alien Message, which I think is a really good EY short story.
During dinner custom fitted shirts were mentioned such as
blanklabel. It's also the case that many of these services have introductory deals (
$20 shirt).
Brendan mentioned he was looking to learn statistics for which I recommend part 1 of Data Analysis - A Bayesian Tutorial (
download) which is about 100 pages.
See you guys next week for Guy's tutorial on bayes' theorem!
