He was one of Roblox’s three founding rendering programmers and for the past 11 years has helped shape the direction of its development. Today, the engine is developed by a team of roughly 25 people and is among the most widely used engines in the world. This talk will focus on how the engine really works, and on the trade-offs required for extreme scalability and performance.. 20:30 - 21:00 Ukončení akce a přesunutí do blízké restaurace / End of the event and move to a nearby restaurant Originál Formanka https://maps.app.goo.gl/QUE5cnqsJ2vankJk8

Community Chatter: practical AI
Community Chatter: practical AI
How are community builders actually using AI in their day-to-day work—beyond the hype and into real workflows? ​Join us for a Community Chatter focused on practical AI tools and approaches that help teams move faster, support their people better, and rethink how communities grow. This session brings together speakers who have built and deployed their own AI-powered solutions—from editorial coaching agents and community automation stacks to internal knowledge assistants employees actually trust. ​You’ll hear how AI is being used to: * ​turn rough ideas into publishable content without bottlenecks * ​better understand and manage growing communities * ​create reliable, accessible knowledge systems inside organizations ​**Speakers & Talks** ​[Jan Meissne](https://www.linkedin.com/in/necasjiri/?utm_source=luma)[r](https://www.linkedin.com/in/jan-meissner/?utm_source=luma) *Coaching, Not Gatekeeping: Building an AI Editorial Agent for Our R&D Blog* The more AI handles the routine, the more the human stuff matters. This talk is a small story inside that bigger one. A year ago, this would have been a favour I'd ask a senior engineer for - and then keep bothering them about every time something broke. Instead, I built it myself: an AI-powered editorial coach that helps our engineers, PMs and designers turn rough ideas into publishable blog posts. Azure Functions, React, Claude. Things I'd nodded along to at conferences for years and never expected to actually touch. I'll share how it was structured, tuned, and what it changed about how people write and publish. Although I hit a token limit in Claude Code halfway through. It's in production anyway. ​[Láďa Vašek](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ladislav-vasek/?locale=en&utm_source=luma) *From Chat to Code: How We Run a 500-Member Community with AI (Without Being a Developer)* A practical, no-code journey through building and running a community with AI tools. Láďa will walk through his stack and share a surprising insight: not all members matter equally—and AI can help you figure out who actually does. ​[Jirka Nečas](https://www.linkedin.com/in/necasjiri/?utm_source=luma) *Good Input Means Good Output: How We Built an AI Agent Employees Actually Trust* A behind-the-scenes look at building an internal AI assistant that employees actually use. Jirka will show how leveraging existing data, analyzing real employee questions, and embracing imperfect systems can lead to a reliable, everyday knowledge tool. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- ​This event is organized for the Czech community of community builders, especially those working with engineering and tech teams—but everyone curious about practical AI in community and team enablement is welcome.
AI apokalypsa pro vývojáře?
AI apokalypsa pro vývojáře?
**🔥 TechTalk #5** Každá generace má svůj „konec světa“. Někdy to byla jaderná válka. Někdy internet. **Dnes je to AI.** Jedni říkají, že zachrání svět. Druzí, že vezme práci a zničí IT. Realita bývá vždycky někde mezi. Proto tentokrát nechceme keynote ani marketing. Chceme otevřenou technickou debatu o tom, co AI skutečně dělá s vývojem, architekturou a odpovědností za software. **🔥PANELOVÍ HOSTÉ NA ROŠTU:** **🗣️ #1 - [Jan Sládek](https://www.linkedin.com/in/honzasladek/) (CEO [contember](https://www.contember.com/))** **🗣️ #2 - [Michael Žabka](https://www.linkedin.com/in/michael-zabka) (CTO [signageOS](https://www.signageos.io/))** 🗣️ **#3 - [Miloš Čermák](https://x.com/cermak) (novinář v [jednoprocento](https://www.jednoprocento.cz/))** **TÉMATA Z APOKALYPTICKÉ KUCHYNĚ:** 🔥 Budeme **rozumět kódu**, který AI generuje? 🔥 Jak budeme dělat code review něčemu, čemu **nikdo nerozumí**? 🔥 Je **halucinace** stále téma nebo pomalu **zaniká**? 🔥 Security, agent **prompt injection**, úniky kódu a porušování **vlastnického práva**. 🔥 Dříve jsme byli **placení za psaní** kódu; teď jsme **placení za čtení** a kontrolu. 🔥 **Junioři** se nemohou **nic naučit**. 🔥 Anthropic si může napsat **všechen software světa** sám! 🔥 Explozivní růst **technického dluhu** maskovaný produktivitou. 🔥 Tiché **selhávání AI projektů**, o kterých se **veřejně nemluví**. **Podíváme se na to, co dnes AI skutečně dělá s vývojem** – od generování kódu, testů a návrhů architektury přes explozivní růst objemu kódu, kterému už nikdo pořádně nerozumí, až po nový typ technického dluhu maskovaný produktivitou. **Nebudeme řešit, jestli nám AI vezme práci. Budeme řešit, jak se změní odpovědnost za software a jak udržet kvalitu systémů v době, kdy stále větší část kódu vzniká strojově.** Panel bude proložen krátkou technickou přednáškou z praxe: * ⚡ **(překvapení)** 🪢 Celým večerem vás bude opět provázet **[Marek Velas](https://www.linkedin.com/in/marek-velas)** (**[edupunk.cz](https://www.edupunk.cz/)**), který se postará o to, aby diskuze nepřešla v generování náhodných výkřiků a měla spád. \#\#\#\# KDY A KDE: * 📅 **Datum:** Ve středu 20. 5. 2026 * ⏰ **Čas:** 18:30 - 22:00 * 📍 **Místo:** signageOS s.r.o., Evropská 11/2758, Praha 6-Dejvice Těšíme se na setkání!

Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Columbus Comedy Improv Meetup at Gresso's!
Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you knew Del Close on a personal level, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup** for some fun and games! The idea behind improv is to create entire scenes from scratch based on a suggestion from the audience. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway*, *ComedySportz*, or *Wild 'n Out*; it could also be done to tell stories, like *Middleditch and Schwartz*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and free!) weekly comedy event, brings the games (and occasionally different forms) for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Not only is it a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and make friendships that'll last a lifetime! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "Yes, And" that you'll have fun!

Shut Up & Write!™ Easton Town Center
We'll meet at The Capital One Café, 167 Easton Town Center, Space A-103. This is in the main mall where the Microsoft store used to be, on your left if you're standing at the bottom of the AMC Theater escalator. Join us on Saturday for an hour of uninterrupted wordmaking! • What we'll do Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 10AM on Saturday mornings. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. SCHEDULE: 10:00 - SESSION 1: quick intros. 10:10 - timer starts: write for 1 hour. 11:10 - chat / take off / keep writing. OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 11A-11:30ish. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you! • What to bring Whatever you need to be able to write!

See you at The Café on Saturday!
Speak Easy (Storytelling)
Speak Easy (Storytelling)
The topic for May is "Ink" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!
Feel Good Friday: POWER BALLAD  at the Gateway Film Center + SHAKE NO. 8!
Feel Good Friday: POWER BALLAD at the Gateway Film Center + SHAKE NO. 8!
Join us as we get together to see Paul Rudd in the latest comedy-drama-musical from John Carney, POWER BALLAD! The film follows a washed-up wedding singer, a fading boy band singer and a stolen hit song. Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Rick, a washed-up wedding singer, and Danny, a fading boy band star, bond over music and a late-night jam session. When Danny turns Rick's song into a hit, Rick sets out to reclaim the recognition he believes he deserves. Power Ballad is written/directed by John Carney, the master of the modern musical and creative mind behind Once, Begin Again and Sing Street! It stars Paul Rudd, Nick Jonas, Peter McDonald, Marcella Plunkett, Havana Rose Liu and Jack Reynor. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The film premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Dublin International Film Festival where critics call it “a sure-fired crowd-pleaser” that “just might be the feel-good hit of the year!” Others say, “Paul Rudd delivers a career-best performance in this charmer” that’s both “hilarious and deeply moving!” SUMMER OF ICE CREAM, VOL 2: SHAKE NO. 8! Ranked the #1 Ice Cream Shop in Columbus in 2024, this is the perfect place to kick off our Summer of Ice Cream and grab a sweet treat after the show! Their menu features an array of traditional, specialty and vegan shakes, hot cocoa, and more! You can check out their full menu here: [https://www.shakeno8.com/menu.php](https://www.shakeno8.com/menu.php) PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 20 minutes before the show. Once showtime is announced, advance ticket purchase is advised! Once you have yours, please list your seat number in the Comments section of this event. We'll head to nearby Shake No. 8 immediately following the show! Should be a fun one, Dan

Shut Up & Write! Kingsdale Shopping Center
Greetings writers! Come down and join your fellow wordsmiths for one hour of uninterrupted writing time in the upper level of the Market District Supermarket in Upper Arlington. The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo.

We’ll meet on Wednesday evenings, starting the clock at 6:30, following a brief period of introductions. This is solid writing time and all inclusive. Any project is acceptable, be it fiction, non -fiction, work or homework assignment. All is welcome and will remain private to you. The market boasts a Starbucks, a full service bar and various affordable food options. Parking is plentiful, free Wifi is provided as well as outlets for charging your devices, though they are somewhat limited, so plan accordingly. Show up as early as you like, or stay late. This group tends to socialize some, both before and after the alloted time, but this is not mandatory to you. Feel free to come and go as you please and late arrivals are welcome. The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit. Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times. Feel free to message me privately wth any questions and/ or concerns you may have. Happy writing!
Drunken Philosophy: What’s up with all the AI hate?
Drunken Philosophy: What’s up with all the AI hate?
**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion **Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?** A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad. My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one. Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it? I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction. Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends. No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.
