Who?
Do you like food? Arguing about the future of longevity? Arabic poetry? Spikeball? Making the world a better place? Figuring out how to optimally make the world a worse place (in theory)? Being outside with cool people on a warm day in May?
If you answered yes to 0–2 or 4–7 of those questions, we hope to see you there!
