You're invited to a Halloween Hackathon, hosted by Manifold and Lightcone. Lunch, snacks and dinner provided. Free to attend and open to all!
Where: Lighthaven Campus, 2740 Telegraph Ave, Berkeley
When: 9am-10pm, Fri Oct 27
What: Hack on any project of your choice
We recommend you start something from scratch! Hackathons are a great chance to get a new project or feature off the ground
It can be for work, or something personal
Not limited to coding - you can write, draw, plan an event or anything else
Bonus points for coming in costume or hacking on a Halloween project!
Rough schedule:
9am: Kickoff! Discuss projects, form teams, get hacking
Noon: Lunch
3pm: Break & boba run
7pm: Dinner (overlaps with AI Impacts Dinner)
9pm: Demos! Show off what you've been working on to everyone else~
(If you want to hack late into the night, we have some sleepover options on-site -- ping austin@manifold.markets if interested!)
RSVPs optional but encouraged - leave a comment below if you're thinking of coming~

why is the proability at close not at 90%+? I would have assumed that participants can just count the number of heads and bet. I literally just bet according to ian and chris who seems to be in the hackathon.
@Austin In case you repeat this in the future, can I signup to be notified somehow? I just saw this and would have loved to have joined. π
2,500 Manifold Bounty - We think an AI safety quiz would be a good addition to aisafety.info. The quiz will let users test their knowledge of AI safety and get an "alignment" score :) . Currently, our database of questions has long form answers like this:
I think the first step to creating a quiz for users would be to use an LLM to summarize our answers, and to generate similar but incorrect answers for a multiple choice quiz. You also might need to keep track of the user somehow, so that they can continue the quiz if they refresh. Currently we track state in the url. We will reward the bounty when we approve your pull request on github. This is pretty open ended, so you can design things how you see fit: how the user gets to the quiz, what the quiz looks like, etc. Code is here : https://github.com/StampyAI/stampy-ui

I think the github action will be easy enough that I can MVP fatebook in emacs with the rest of the day after I finish that up. chatgpt is pretty good at elisp-- it got me reading managrams with a GET in like 40 minutes or so (not counting parsing json into some org display)
@Quinn Update: Morpheus (manifold tagging isn't working?) has already rolled fatebook https://github.com/sonofhypnos/fatebook.el -- i want something more for org and extensible to manifold tho so i'll probably duplicate work
Hey friends,
We're (small team of volunteers) implementing a recently finalized design of AIsafety.com using Webflow, and we (very, very much) need some help from brilliant people like you.
I created a task listβeach one should take 1β3 hours each. I'll scope out each task more, and find a time tomorrow to get on a call for a quick onboarding. But first I want to see if anyone's interested.
I think I'll be able to knock this out https://github.com/quinn-dougherty/epistemics-webdev-projects/issues/6 -- would love to pair with someone / trio or more. I've never written a github action before but how hard could it be

board! Most of what's written down so far are mine, feel free to file issues with what you'd like to be built or to declare intent to build yourself (so others can know to collab with you)

@Quinn FYI, Fatebook is open to contributions if anyone wants to have a go! Feel free to DM me on the Sage Discord if you want to chat about ideas/implementation
