I would like to find something like that, minus the religion. Topic of the day and cover songs or original compositions, sharing of each other's lives and struggles, food.
I suspect when millenials start to age they will come back, minus the culty parts.
There’s also expat and reiree communities where such things occur. College towns frequently will have public meetings or lectures.

I use a 2015 MBP for work. It's a company computer so I am not allowed to install personal software. I feel it's a waste as I only run Pycharm and Data grip on it without really "using" and understanding the machine. I'm also a Windows person such that this is the first Apple product I own.
Somehow I got fascinated and did a bit of research, purchased an iBook G4 on ebay and immediately started to play with XCode. Bit I figured that the original Mac was more elegant and I love the fact that it has constrained resources so people were expected to use assembly from time to time.
That said, owning an original Mac is expensive plus it requires certain knowledge amd mindset that even iBook can't grow me into. It wad much like in the old days when we owned an IBM PC and everything including the system disk came and went from floppy disks. So I guess it requires a lot more money than I expected and I also need to learn where to turn to if it broke.
When we've agreed on instructions/semantics and a deterministic format, we can send each other programs - suspend and serialize them on one machine and deserialize and resume them on the other!
I think the race to make as much money as possible is very bad for society. Part of the problem is that people think wealth takes care of them, so they hoard more than they need and avoid risks. They wouldn't think this way if society took care of everyone. Hoarding is unhealthy too; cash is the lifeblood of the economy and it has to flow.
But I don't want to talk about communism. I'm certain there's a better socioeconomic model for the software/internet era.
It's mentioned a couple times here too under Government 2.0 and Underserved Communities: https://www.ycombinator.com/rfs
Mine too. Informal exploration here <https://mega.nz/file/LFVWmIyb#ch1Rw0kMoL90hC8wpKfAifc948aoMM...> (standalone HTML doc)
I have somehow put together many skills (some at doctorate level) over the years that I can do almost anything... but I believe collaboration is key.
First plan will be to build credibility by creating content and then slowly pivoting to coherts and courses
I’ve never really found anyone that thinks like me. Everyone I’ve known is either too mature or too immature, too “weird” or too “normal”. i have trouble making friends because im not interested in hanging out with them and vice versa.
I don’t think it’s something you can help with, but i wonder how many other people feel like i do. Moreover, how are people finding their friends these days?
