Our February Go Meetup @ Stile
Hi Gophers!
Weโre kicking off the year with our first Go meetup in February, covering structured concurrency and anti-fragility with speakers Peter Delafosse, Max Collier, and Nick Spain.
๐ค Speakers
**Go News**
Peter Delafosse
**Better Structured Concurrency for Go**
Max Collier
An introduction to [sourcegraph/conc](https://sourcegraph.com/blog/building-conc-better-structured-concurrency-for-go) a library improving concurrency handling in Go.
Max will cover:
* The problem `conc` is designed to solve
* A walkthrough of its interface
* Insights into its internals
Based on the Sourcegraph blog โBuilding conc: Better Structured Concurrency for Go.โ
**Automating anti-fragility**
Nick Spain, Head of Platform, Stile Education
At Stile we have a bug zero policy. This encompasses actions items (for reducing toil and preventing future incidents) and test flake. This means we actively prioritise bugs all the time, they're not languishing in the backlog, action items are completed whilst people still have context, and we consistently work to reduce test flake. I will talk about: How this policy is implemented, what tooling we use to help us, and how we have automated this work using AI.

Dinner at The Fox Hotel $20 deposit
The Fox Hotel is an old converted pub in Collingwood. It presents a decidedly modern take on its food, beer and wine, while at the same time maintaining its old school charms.
This cunningly versatile pub turned modern eatery has a relaxed, welcoming vibe. The comprehensive food menu includes its now famous Vegetarian Burrito, roasted Pork Belly plus the Moreton Bay Bug Pie โ with vegetarians, vegans and those with food allergies never overlooked.
We've booked a table on the upstairs deck. What more could you want on a sunny afternoon?
Why not check out their menu and decide?
https://thefoxhotel.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2025/02/Fox-Menu-21Feb2025.pdf
A $20 non refundable deposit is required for this event and will be refunded on the night.
The deposit will be required 48 hours from RSVPing to the event or you will be moved removed from the event. Sorry, but there are too many no shows which makes booking difficult.
Please make payment to the following account only if you are on the going list.
Please note the bank details.
BSB 013125
Account 150808654
Please let me know once payment is made. PLEASE USE YOUR NAME AND VENUE AS YOUR REFERENCE.
Please only RSVP to an event if you fully intend to show. Pulling out of a dinner or another booked event (with a venue) on the day is a kick in the teeth for both the venue and the organiser. I understand there are instances where this is unavoidable, but you are short changing the venue on the revenue they are reliant upon, especially when it comes to paying their staff. It may be too late to rebook those tables with other patrons. Not to mention the stress this puts the organisers under.
Please be considerate.

Docker Melb Crew #1 AI Engineering with Containers feat. Nvidia DGX Spark
Join the Docker Melb Crew for a deep dive into the next frontier of AI: **Agentic Systems**. We are moving beyond simple chatbots to discuss how to build, containerize, and deploy autonomous agents that can plan, reason, and act.
This session brings together Melbourneโs engineers and architects to discuss the unique challenges of running multi-agent workflows. We will explore how containerization provides the isolation and scalability needed for complex agentic architectures.
**๐ Powered by: The DGX Spark** We will demonstrate what happens when Agentic AI meets extreme compute. See how agent workloads perform when accelerated by the **NVIDIA DGX Spark** (GB10 Blackwell / CUDA 13). We will look less at the metal and more at how this level of throughput unlocks real-time reasoning and massive parallel agent execution and prototyping.
**๐
Agenda:**
* **Networking & Food:** Connect with the local AI and Cloud-Native community.
* **Topic 1:** **Prototyping Local AI Agents with Docker and DGX Spark** Learn how to use the Docker ecosystem to build private, powerful AI agents that live on your own hardware, by [Thiago Shimada Ramos](https://www.linkedin.com/in/thiago4go/), Docker Captain
* **Topic 2: First Steps with Containers** Short, fast-paced lightning talks from new Docker users sharing their first projects.

Automate with n8n
### **The Vibe**
Are you curious about AI and automation, or are you already building complex workflows in **n8n**? Join us for a casual, after-work gathering in the heart of the Melbourne CBD.
This is an "open floor" eventโno rigid slides or formal pitches. Just a group of locals grabbing a drink and talking about how we use n8n to reclaim our time and supercharge our businesses.

Thought Experiment: Closure (Valentines Day Special)
Ever wondered how humanity would respond to an asteroid heading for Earth? Or how the world might react to first contact with aliens?
Welcome to **The Thought Experiment** โ a new kind of meetup where we explore big *โWhat ifโฆ?โ* scenarios in a fun but thoughtful way. Each session, weโll pick one scenario (from global crises to wild sci-fi situations) and work together to imagine solutions, strategies, and possibilities.
This is for **curious minds of all kinds** โ students, professionals, creatives, or anyone who enjoys thinking differently. Some people might bring research, others just bring imagination. Either way, weโll brainstorm together and see where the discussion takes us.
[Thought Experiment Site](https://thoughtexperiment.au/)
**We ask everyone to Buy a drink at the venue**
**You Need to have Conversational English.**
**This is a 3PM start event.**
**Format:**
* Quick intro to the scenario
* Small-group discussions
* Share back with the group
* Wrap up + (optional) post-discussion drinks
For our first meetup, weโll introduce the format, get to know each other, and jump into a scenario together.
***Story Arc: Horrors of Consciousness***
Keywords: *Love, Unrequited Love, After Life*
**Scenario: Closure**
A Special Valentines Day Event.
You remember meeting her.
You remember her smile,
not for how it looked,
but for what it did to you.
After that, things seemed to fall into place
more easily than they should have.
Nothing remarkable about the place.
Only the certainty that something essential
had quietly begun.
You remember the love clearly.
Whatโs harder to place
is how little it asked of time.
There were no obvious breaks.
No moment where it failed.
Only the sense, much later,
that it never had to contend with anything else.
How can a love like this be real,
and why does that question feel dangerous?
Oxford Scholar. Saturday 3โ5 PM.
A Small group. Big imagination.
No right answers โ just curiosity, debate, and fun.

Free In-person Meeting: Unwanted Emotions & Loneliness, How to Get Over Them
This is an in-person meeting.
Did you know that unwanted emotions like loneliness, sadness, hopelessness, anger, fear, anxiety, or feelings of irritation donโt just fall on you for no reason. They are not random occurrences that simply happen to people's minds. They are definitely not chemical imbalance in your brain due to some nebulous chemical reactions by chance.
Your negative emotions are the symptoms of the painful experiences that you have which are not healed, and which are still affecting you.
The effects of these painful experiences are exacerbated by the pressures or difficulties of the other problems in your life.
For instance, let's say you are already carrying a huge load on your back, then you cannot take on much more, but, let's say something else happens to you, such as the difficulties from the Pandemic, then the resultant combined weight on you can take you over the edge, kind of like the straw that break the camel's back. When this happens, people's attention usually goes to the straw that was added, but actually the majority of the weight had come from the huge load that were already there, holding a person down and causing a person issues.
So how do you remove the huge load that was already there? How do you lighten them up? Is it possible to get rid of them?
That is what this meeting will be all about.
Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life.
Be sure to click on the red "Attend" button below to come to this local event. We look forward to seeing you there.
This group is created by the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

Combined with our [LLM scaffolds](https://dlthub.com/workspace) and [MCP server](https://dlthub.com/docs/hub/features/mcp-server), you can build a custom connector for any of the 8k+ available sources in 10 minutes by following this guide. Building with LLMs is an iterative process. We will follow this general workflow and give practical tips for each step."

We meet on the last Monday of each Month. Presentations are given by members and friends of this group. If you would like to do a presentation (small or large) on a python topic, please contact centralohpython@gmail.com
Tupelo Honey
Weโre heading to Tupelo Honey in Upper Arlington for our next group dinner, and this oneโs all about comfort food, good vibes, and even better conversation. Think Southern-inspired dishes, cocktails that actually hit, and a space perfect for settling in and catching up.
Whether youโre coming hungry, curious, or just in the mood to connect with good people, this is the kind of night where conversations flow easy and nobodyโs rushing out the door. Come ready to eat well, laugh a little, and enjoy the company. Looking forward to seeing everyone there.
TBD
