**Event Summary** We are diving into how Everpure is redefining data - evolving beyond storage into a unified, intelligent platform. Expect real insights, practical demos, and a fresh take on how simple data management can be. **Talk 1: From Pure Storage to Everpure** **Speaker: [Paul Melmon](https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulmelmon/) \- Prague Site Lead / VP\, Engineering** Paul will unpack why Pure Storage became Everpure, a shift that reflects our move from storage to full-scale data management. You will see what’s changing, what remains core to our DNA and how the 1touch acquisition expands our capabilities into data intelligence. Paul willl also spotlight our Prague R&D hub, where much of this innovation is being built. **Talk 2: The Intelligent Control Plane** **Speaker: [Adam Mazouz](https://www.linkedin.com/in/adammazouz/) \- Principal Product Manager** Managing data doesn’t have to be complex. This session shows how we bring everything into one intelligent control layer. With Fusion, Pure1, and Purity working together, you get unified visibility, AI-driven insights and automated workflows. Adam will walk through how this evolves from siloed management to a truly intelligent, self-optimizing system. **Talk 3: The Unified Data Plane** **Speaker: [Bogusia Frese](https://www.linkedin.com/in/bogusia-frese-3780901b/) \- Consulting Field Solutions Architect** Say goodbye to silos - this is where block, file and object storage come together as one seamless data layer.

You start things, lose momentum and find yourself starting over again. You’re not alone. Most people get support at the beginning. And applause at the end. But the part that actually matters? The middle. The quiet, repetitive, sometimes frustrating part where nothing feels exciting, and everything depends on showing up. **That’s where we are.** At NoCrastination, we don’t meet for hype. We meet to **show up and finish something, together.** Not perfectly. Not magically. Just consistently. **What this really is** This is a space for people who are: * building something * figuring things out * or simply trying to stay on track **without doing it alone** You don’t need to be an entrepreneur. You just need something you want to move forward. **What happens here** You bring something you’ve been putting off. We sit down together. We focus. And you leave with something done. That’s it. And that’s everything. **Why people keep coming back** * “I finally follow through on what I plan” * “I leave with real progress every time” 🕐 **Time**: 3:00 PM – 6:00 PM 📍 **Location**: **Safe Space Bookstore,** U božích bojovníků 606/3, Prague 3 Žižkov · Prague, cz 💻 **Bring**: Your laptop, journal, creative tools, or anything you’ve been procrastinating on 🌿 **Hosted by**: NoCrastination. ☕ Please do order something from the bar, so as to keep us in their good graces!

After each focus session, if you’re still in the flow, feel free to remain seated — no need to move. If you're up for a chat, join others in the social area for a relaxed break. * **Social start**: from **3:00 to 3:30 PM**, we mingle and get to know each other; our first focus session begins at **3:30 PM** * **Gentle structure**: we begin with a soft check-in and intention round * **Pomodoro-style rhythm**: We work in 45-minute focus blocks followed by 15-minute social breaks. If 45 minutes feels too long, feel free to break it into two 20-minute focus sessions with a short 5-minute reset in between. You’ll need to self-regulate these shorter cycles, just tune into your own flow and rejoin when ready. * **Quiet companionship**: no pressure to talk during focus time — just shared presence and support * **Welcoming space**: we meet in the creative, cozy lobby of the **Safe Space Bookstore** **This space is for you if…** * You keep starting but don’t finish * You work alone and feel stuck * You want structure without pressure * You don’t want to do this alone anymore **What you’ll get** Not motivation. Not a productivity hack. **You’ll get: ONE THING DONE.** And then you come back, and do it again. **This is how it starts** You don’t need to commit to anything big. Just come once. Pick one thing. Finish it.

**Hosted by Sky Czech Republic.** Doors are open from 5:30 pm, talks will start at 6:00 pm. **1\. Marek Svitok \(Sky\) \- Elegance and Safety in Goroutine Management** Concurrent programming is a core strength of Go, but managing multiple goroutines while handling errors and synchronization can quickly become complex and error-prone. The golang.org/x/sync/errgroup package provides a simple and effective abstraction for running multiple goroutines concurrently, propagating the first error encountered, and ensuring all routines complete before proceeding. In this article, we explore why errgroup is a valuable tool, how to use it effectively, and what design patterns emerge from its usage. We also examine how one might implement similar functionality manually, highlighting the pitfalls and edge cases that make a manual approach cumbersome. By comparing manual implementations with the idiomatic errgroup usage, we aim to demonstrate why adopting this package leads to safer, cleaner, and more maintainable concurrent code in Go. **2\. Vilibald Wanca \- Nail the Basics \- S01E03** Go does not use `try/catch` for normal error handling. Instead, it treats errors as explicit return values, while `panic` is reserved for truly exceptional or unrecoverable situations. A panic stops normal execution, runs deferred calls, and can only be intercepted with `recover` inside a deferred function. This makes `panic/recover` closer to an emergency escape hatch than a general exception system. The result is a model that favors clarity and explicit control over hidden flow.

**Caller: Richard Ades** **Band: The McKenzies** **Clinton Heights Lutheran Church** **15 Clinton Heights Ave, Columbus, OH 43202** WHAT IS CONTRA DANCING? Picture the Grand Ball scenes like you’ve seen in period films such as “Pride and Prejudice”, where the dancers are lined up in long lines, across from each other. That’s English Country Dancing, the predecessor of contra dancing. Now, add moves like “swing your partner” and “do-si-do,” like you’ve seen in square dancing. Set it to fabulous, high energy, live music with fiddles, guitars, percussion and more, alá “Riverdance.” Finally, set the whole scene down in the middle of Woodstock, with a hip, groovy atmosphere, a bit of tie-dye, and hints of counter-culture attitude. THAT’s Contra Dancing! Wear cool and comfortable clothes (you will get warm) and clean shoes that won't mark up our nice wood floor. Be sure to come for the beginner's lesson from 7:30 - 8:00, followed by dancing 8:00 - 10:30. All dances are taught; we will help you learn! Beginners always welcome, no need to bring a partner. Cost is $10.00 adults, $5.00 ages 12-26. Under 12 free. Free parking in church lot. For more information contact me or check out our website: [www.bigscioty.com](http://www.bigscioty.com/) Please bring your own refillable water bottle.

This month we’ll be reading Assassin’s Apprentice by Robin Hobb. Feel free to come even if you don’t finish the book!

Bring your Raspberry Pi, Arduino, microcontroller, or any other electronic project and join fellow electronics makers for a night of creativity and collaboration! This session is open forum to share your current projects—whether complete or in progress, it’s all interesting! Whether you’re deep into embedded systems, exploring new ideas, or just getting started, you’ll find a welcoming space to collaborate, share, and get inspired. **New to electronics or curious about tinkering?** You’re absolutely welcome. If you’re a beginner and want to experiment, I’ll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things out—whether that’s blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors. No pressure and no experience required—just an interest in learning and building. While we continue to pursue a more permanent venue for this Meetup, we’ll be using public library facilities based on availability. This session will be at the Worthington Park Library in the Olentangy Meeting Room.

**Pagans on the Patio! Summer/Fall Series** A casual gathering the first Thursday of each month. Time to relax, meet new people, and reconnect with old friends.
