We are running CoffeeOps in a remote first way with lively and diverse calls twice a month. This session is open to all tech and tech adjacent professionals who are interested in talking about software delivery, software reliability and more. Each session is run as a lean coffee which means we identify and vote on topics based on who is on the call and what is on our minds. There will be no highlighted speakers or pre-set topics, so come ready to share and discuss on a variety of topics! We will use the following board for idea generation: [https://funretro.io/publicboard/h404NF84Uje4tCcxpJdHr4Ycs9B3/ca97c4a2-d09d-4e01-b682-13971e6ecdae ](https://funretro.io/publicboard/h404NF84Uje4tCcxpJdHr4Ycs9B3/ca97c4a2-d09d-4e01-b682-13971e6ecdae ) And we will use the following meet for our calls: [https://meet.google.com/uui-obkh-wsa](https://meet.google.com/uui-obkh-wsa)

NOTE: We've had 25-35 people each week at this meetup, but most folks aren't RSVP-ing via Meetup. Around half are from outside MA. Please join us, even if you didn't RSVP. *** The "Natick" group is now meeting via Zoom + OGS (Online Go Server), and includes many people from outside of Massachusetts. Beginners are always welcome. It is great to host people who don't live near enough to other Go players to play in person. The Zoom + OGS experience provides 75% of the in-person experience. During the meetup, you can: • Play friendly games, or watch us play • Play league games. For details about joining the league, see http://massgo.org/league/ • Join a beginners group, or get teaching games • Join a DDK or SDK study group, generally starting at 8:30 • Have your game reviewed, or watch other reviews • Participate in a review of a pro game, starting at 9:30, in "guess the move" format. You can watch the game on Twitch and chat there, or talk to other Go players watching the review on the Zoom. See https://www.twitch.tv/massgo On Tuesday evening, sign in to OGS and go to the Massachusetts Go Association group (various links are posted there), or just join the Zoom. See https://online-go.com/group/45. Let me know if you have any questions. I look forward to seeing you.

Hi, here you can meet up online and have a nice English conversation using the Zoom app. You'll find the link to the meeting in the description (password to enter: 'Waschsalon'). After 40 minutes the session will automatically end. Then click on the link again to re-enter. Have fun! TIP: Make sure you have a computer with sound or headset and video setup before the meeting.

Encore un event Boost Your Skills et cette fois pour parler Machine Learning : Comment optimiser les modèles de Machine Learning ? L’optimisation des modèles de Machine Learning est un des principaux enjeux pour un Data Scientist. L'objectif est surtout d'obtenir de meilleures performances et d'augmenter la précision du modèle, en particulier dans des secteurs où les erreurs peuvent avoir un réel impact. On parle notamment d'optimisation des hyper-paramètres. Il existe plusieurs méthodes d'optimisation. Nous avons des techniques “classiques” avec les méthodes par grilles, faciles à mettre en place, mais qui présentent leurs limites. Ensuite nous avons les méthodes bayésiennes, où l'on capitalise sur les expérimentations précédentes pour s'orienter vers les bonnes valeurs. Contrairement aux précédentes méthodes qui évaluent chaque expérimentation de manière indépendante, l'optimisation bayésienne est vu comme LA méthode de choix pour les modèles longs à entraîner. Il s’agit d’un sujet clé pour gagner en efficacité. Voici le plan du Workshop : ✔️ Présentation des méthodes de recherche par grille ✔️ Présentation des méthodes bayésiennes ✔️ Lien avec l’AutoML ✔️ Cas d'application Etc … 🖥 L’optimisation en Machine Learning n’aura plus aucun secret pour toi suite à cet event.

# *"Successful Real Estate Investing Is NOT Hard, When You Know The Insider's Secret That Has Created Multiple 7-Figure Real Estate Empires..."* **Don't just take my word for it...** Here are just a few of the folks who are using this simple 5-Step system to create 6-Figure, 7-Figure, and (in a few cases) 8-Figure real estate investing businesses: * **Josh Cohen of 3-Step Home Sales, an 8-Figure Real Estate Wholesaling Machine that Josh runs through his virtual network of team members;** * Howard Johnson, not only got his very first deal within 21-Days of starting his Realinvestors® training but built a 6-Figure real estate investing business in less than 9-months, and now routinely gets 6-Figure checks (from single deals) every month! * **Lisa Wood, who shortly after joining our training was diagnosed with the medical condition known as M.S. Fortunately, in her words, she "discovered Realinvestors and the power of creating a 6-Figure Income, working from home on a part-time basis" Today Lisa, using this same 5-Step system, routinely generates a (high) 6-Figure income, many days working from the bedside desk her husband built for her when her M.S. flares up!** * Godwin Owinje has mastered the art of finding, fixing and flipping deals (part-time) to create a high 6-Figure income, while still traveling the world pursuing his real passion - professional basketball as a training and scout for the NBA. * **...and we can (and will) go on to share many other success stories this coming Saturday, but not just flashing their successes, we'll also go step-by-step on how you too can apply this 5-Step system to build your very own 7-Figure (or high 6-Figure) real estate investor business, while working part-time, from home in the next 12 Months!** ...but hurry, and take action NOW, because while this event is FREE, the seating for this LIVE WORKSHOP Is very limited!

Thank you :) Welcome to CelebrateLIFE! "Spiritualism is a religion and philosophy of life focused on joy, harmony, and a fear-free understanding of the continuity of life. - Spiritualists believe that God or Infinite Intelligence is ALL That Is, expressing through all creation by love, light, and law. Humanity, the most complex of life on earth, reaches this Divine Source through prayer, meditation, listening to the inner awareness, and service. Why service? Because every living thing is a part of God, so as we serve life we also serve the Higher Energies. Life is consciousness - without consciousness, there is no existence. Consciousness is the totality of one's thoughts, feelings, emotions, and impressions on the mind. The state of thinking is how we create our consciousness. Spiritualism teaches that through the Law of Action/Reaction or Cause/Effect we take control of our lives as we control our thoughts. Positive thinking leads to happiness and assists the individual to grow" from NSAC.

In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** https://youtube.com/live/BltmWMH1zG0?feature=share

Most people use AI like a search box: they type one sentence, hope for the best, and get frustrated when the answer is generic, wrong, or useless. But getting better results from tools like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and other AI systems is not about memorizing magic prompts. It is about learning how to give the AI better context. In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll break down how to make AI dramatically more useful by improving the way you communicate with it. You’ll learn how to give clearer instructions, provide examples, set constraints, ask for better output formats, and use follow-up questions to turn a mediocre answer into a genuinely useful one. We’ll cover practical techniques you can use immediately for work, learning, writing, coding, planning, research, and everyday problem solving. We’ll also touch on why these same ideas show up in more advanced AI systems, including RAG, agents, evaluations, and AI workflows. No technical background required. Bring your curiosity, your questions, and maybe one real task you wish AI was better at helping you with. **What you’ll learn:** * Why “better prompting” is really about better context * How to structure requests so AI gives more useful answers * How to use examples, constraints, and output formats * How to iterate when the first answer is not good enough * How these skills connect to more advanced AI workflows This meetup is for anyone who wants to move beyond basic ChatGPT usage and start getting more practical value out of AI. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.

We will have our certified mediums available and you can receive 3 10-minute readings for $20. To keep you safe, we will be following all CDC and Health Dept. guidelines at our psychic fair today. Sitters and readers required to wear a mask. We will maintain a minimum of 6 foot physical distance during readings. Please, if you can, bring your own portable chair to use during your readings. Please note that we are at our wonderful new home at Unity of Columbus, 4211 Maize Road, Columbus, OH

Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations. 
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that. We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus. 
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn. 
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play. 
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders… 
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords… 
IMPORTANT: 
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for. 
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.
