For our May meetup, we are diving deep into two very different but equally essential worlds: the art of **trashware** (giving old hardware a second life) and the high-stakes decision of choosing between **Python and Rust**.

We’ll be hosted by the wonderful folks at **Buildo**. Come for the knowledge, stay for the networking!

📍 **Location and time**

* **Where:** Buildo, Via Malaga 4, Milano
* **When:** Wednesday, May 6th, 2026
* **Time:** 18:30 (Starts at 19:00 sharp)

🎙️ **Talk 1: How I learned to stop worrying and love (the bomb) trashware**
**Speaker:** Andrea Perotti
Your 101 practical course on consumer hardware and approaches you can adopt to reduce your carbon footprint. Learn the *if*, the *what*, and the *how* to start doing trashware and having fun while doing it.
**BIO**
**Andrea Perotti** is a Linux veteran and Senior Engineering Partner Manager at **Red Hat**, where he champions Open Source integration. Beyond the enterprise world, he is an active member of **PCOfficina**, dedicated to hardware refurbishment and community education. Andrea is a firm believer in the power of shared knowledge and sustainable tech.

🎙️ **Talk 2: Python or Rust? Yes**
**Speaker:** Giacomo Barone
When is it worth it? When is it not? Giacomo will dive into the trade-offs of integrating Rust into your Python workflow and how to keep your product and your team from exploding in the process.
**BIO**
**Giacono Barone** co-founder e head of product **@ hiop**

🍕 **Networking**
After the talks, we will have our usual space for Q&A and networking. It's the perfect time to chat about your latest projects or ask our speakers for advice.

**See you there!**

💜 Csak nőknek szóló PyLadies esemény! 💜

Sziasztok PyLadiek!

Ez alkalommal bepillantunk a legintenzívebben fejlődő AI-technológiák világába.

Elsőként pár fogalmat és alkalmazási területet nézünk meg, majd pedig csinálunk Pythonban egy saját LLM-et.
Felépítjük komponenseinket, és ki is próbáljuk, mire képes egy alaprendszer.
A szünet utáni második részben az igényeinket kibővítjük, a rendszerkomponenseket nagyobb tudású elemekkel helyettesítjük, és így építünk fel egy, a gyakorlatban is használható megoldást, egy lokális RAG-rendszert.

👨‍💻 Előadó: Sepp Norbert
🗓️ Programterv
Múltkori alkalmakból tanulva, most hosszabb szünetet hagyunk a ket előadás között, hogy legyen időnk beszélgetni és megismerni egymást :)

• 17:30 – 18:00 Megérkezés, setup
• 18:00 – 19:00 Előadás I.
• 19:00 – 19:40 Szünet, Networking
• 19:40 – 20:35 Előadás II.
• 20:35 – 21:00 Záró gondolatok, elköszönés

(A programterv változásának jogát fenntartjuk.)

💻 Mivel készülj?
Workshop jellegű alkalom lesz, így ajánlott, hogy legyen nálad egy programozásra alkalmas számítógép.
A meetup előtt egy héttel részletes telepítési és előkészítési útmutatót küldünk.
Ha régebbi vagy kisebb teljesítményű géped van, akkor sincs gond – az első részhez nem lesz szükség komolyabb erőforrásokra.

💜 Kit várunk?
Olyan lányokat/nőket, akik érdeklődnek az AI és a Python iránt, és szeretnék megérteni, hogyan működnek a modern nyelvi modellek, illetve kipróbálnák magukat egy saját rendszer építésében.

📍 Helyszín
Balance Irodaház – 7. emelet Dél (Lifttől balra)
Cím: 1139 Budapest, Váci út 99

🌍 Nyelv
Az esemény nyelve: magyar (és Python)

🤝 Szponzor
HCL Technologies Starschema Kft.

Az esemény regisztrációhoz kotott!

Csatlakozz a PyLadies slack csatornára!
https://slackin.pyladies.com￼
.. Ha megkaptad a meghívót, jelentkezz be, és a csatornák (channel)-ek között keresd ki a #budapest-pyladies￼-t.

Célunk, hogy legyen egy olyan közösség, csatorna, ahová bármikor be lehessen dobni egy érdekes cikket amit olvastál, random gondolatokat vagy problémát amin elakadtál - de igazából bármit ami kapcsolódik a pythonhoz - beszélgessünk és segítsük egymást! :)

Írj, akár slacken, akár itt, ha bármi kérdésed van, csatlakoznál szervezői csapatunkhoz, vagy akár te is szívesen előadnál valamilyen témában!
Nagyon várjuk, hogy újra találkozhassunk!

Üdvözlettel,
a PyLadies Budapest szervezői 👩‍💻

May Edition ✨✨!

We will be at Kraken Tech (Octopus Energy Group), London office!
(in-person only event, no streaming)

**Talks:**
**Django's GeneratedField by example — Paolo Melchiorre**
Learn how to use Django 5.0's GeneratedField through practical examples. This field lets the database compute values automatically based on other fields in your model — a powerful feature that's easy to underuse. Paolo will walk through real-world use cases to show where it fits and how to make the most of it.
Paolo Melchiorre is a Python backend developer, Django contributor, and Python Software Foundation Fellow. He serves on the Django Software Foundation board, co-organises PyCon Italia, and is a coach for Django Girls and a navigator for the Djangonaut Space mentorship programme.

**Django in the Lab: how web development is reshaping behavioural research — Andy Woods**
Off-the-shelf platforms can't always keep up with the complexity of academic research. Andy has been using Django since version 1.11 to build tools that can — from coordinating live location-based VR studies to running inclusive diary studies via WhatsApp and auditing immersive experiences for accessibility. He'll share where Django works especially well in academic settings, what surprised him along the way, and why this moment feels like a real opportunity for the Django community.
Andy Woods is a Senior Research Engineer-Psychologist at CoSTAR & StoryFutures, Royal Holloway, University of London, and a Django Software Foundation Individual Member.

We are continuing our Study group online for the time being.
We are now meeting online in the San Diego Python Discord server! Here is the link to join: [https://discord.gg/8GpWuVvdbQ](https://discord.gg/8GpWuVvdbQ)
There is a "meetup" voice/video channel that we will be using!

We may start meeting in person soon! This will be discussed at the meetup. We are considering having some online, some in-person. Decisions, decisions!

Every Saturday we meet up with the larger Python community (including San Diego PyLadies (http://www.meetup.com/sd-pyladies), Open BioInformatics San Diego (https://www.meetup.com/Open-Bioinformatics-SanDiego/) and San Diego Artificial Intelligence (https://www.meetup.com/SanDiegoAI/)) to chat, learn, and hang out.

Our study group is for everyone on their Python journey, whether you're just starting out, an experienced pro, or anywhere in between. There's no formal instruction, just a bunch of folks who like to code. Sometimes we talk about a specific subject, sometimes answer questions, whatever!

Python Community Code of Conduct (http://www.pythonsd.org/coc): Python is much more than a software language. Python is a vibrant community made up of members from around the globe with a diverse set of skills, personalities, and experiences. It is through these differences that our community experiences great successes and continued growth. Overall, we're good to each other. We contribute to this community not because we have to, but because we want to.
