The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

Okay, cool.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

Two things about Incaven.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

The first is we talked about it last time, and last episode...

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

And I mentioned how like awesome and transformative it was for me.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

One of the questions on at, I think it was less online or something, Ben asked in his feedback, how much would you be willing to pay to like stay at Inkhaven for a month for this program I'm thinking of doing, the blogging program?

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

Yeah, we never quite released that.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

I think you thought it was pretty crazy that people were being asked if they would be willing to pay on the order of thousands of dollars just to come to Lighthaven every day and write around other people.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

Yeah, it didn't say it didn't include food.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

No, it was just come here and be part of the program and get kicked out of the program.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

If you if you don't post every day.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

And, you know, part a large part of it was being around other people also doing the same thing and being at Inkhaven and getting to meet people like Alexander Wales and Scott Alexander that talk to you about writing.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

But but yeah, it was two thousand dollars just and I was just wondering, I don't know, at the time you thought that sounded crazy, right?

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

I ask because, like, do you still think it sounds like a crazy amount now?

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

I was wondering if, like, you had changed your opinion at all in the meantime.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

Or do you still think, like, no, that's kind of nuts and the people who do this are a little bit crazy?

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

Fundraiser was successful.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

They're good.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

Yeah, they're going to survive for another year.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

And for me, it was totally worth it.

The Bayesian Conspiracy
254 โ€“ The True Theme and Meaning of HPMOR

For a lot of people, I think like almost all the people, maybe with one or two exceptions, thought that it was absolutely worth the money.
