Quantum Computing

BRC20, Runes & Alkane tokens, and a number of other more obscure protocols, form a class of tokens which Bitcoin users compete to mint (by paying transaction fees) Since March 2023 BRC20, Runes and Alkane tokens, have dominated Bitcoin usage, comsuming roughly 1/5 of Bitcoin Blockspace producede during this period. And yet their impact is barely discussed and understood. In this meetup I will share explanations, analytics and insights and discuss the history and the future of these tokens. Are these tokens senseless spam or do they present on of the greatest unmet opportunities in the Bitcoin and Crypto space? Learn the ground facts for yourself and make up your own mind! **About the presenter** Antoine "The Blockspace Baron" is co-founder of Bitcoin Bay, and one of the largest inscribers of Bitcoin Blockspace in the world.

**Note: You must have completed TIAMAT Tier 1 in 2025 or later to participate in Tier 2.** The TIAMAT program is informed by a 4E cognitive science framework, where cognition is taken to be more than just what happens inside the skull. Rather, cognition happens *between* the mind and the body, and *between* us and our world. There is a *co-dependent* relationship between our mind and our body, and between ourselves and our world. What our workshops do is ask you to **engage with the world in a *different way***. Because they are mutually dependent, a different manner of engagement reveals new aspects of both yourself and the world. We’ve designed TIAMAT for transfer. In other words, we’ve designed it so that the altered relationship between yourself and the world within the practices, carries on and grows beyond the practices. ### What is Tier 2? **Tier 2** – Sitting between Tier 1’s structures and Tier 3’s state-work, focuses on **shadow work** (i.e. those behaviors we disown) in a participatory, relational container. The **stance is curious and collaborative**: we work *with* what arises, instead of providing an ideal standard for you to meet. Expect intensity paired with clear agreements, escalation-through-repetition, all with the support of like-minded folks and relational support. Collective sense-making is built into Tier 2, ensuring that you’re neither alone in distress nor stuck in your own rumination cycles. **Schedule** \- Earliest Arrival \- Sunday\, June 7th \- 8pm \- Latest Arrival \- Monday\, June 8th \- 8am \- Program from Monday\, June 8th \- June 12th \- Departure \- Friday\, June 12th by 4pm **Fee:** $2600 - 3250 USD (w/Tier 1) - Super Early Bird Ends 3/10 or Early Bird 3/31! - **This covers shared accommodations and meals.** **Facilitation** by Ethan Hsieh, Taylor Barratt & Dr. John Vervaeke **For more information** on this and the pre-requisite Tier 1 (May 22nd - 24th, 2026) please visit [our site](https://awakentomeaning.com/tiamat-training-program-in-toronto-2026/).

The organizer will be wearing a bright orange t-shirt.

As I looked under CFI’s Mission, Vision, and Values, the phrase ‘**community**’ stood out in the opening line. Then, I found it repeated seven more times, all within a short description. Elsewhere, CFI informs us we run ‘open’ and ‘friendly’ discussions in ‘safe and hospitable’ environments for everyone. And 'Critical Thinking' is, you might say, the backbone for starting any discussion. But while we all know what thinking is, how is **critical thinking** different? Especially in matters that are not quantitatively measurable? As humans, thankfully, we are born curious – we probably won’t have learnt to crawl on four to experience our body and the world around us. We all are capable of being forever-curious – and therefore seeing through the evidence methodically. That is a good start for any talk no matter how complex it may seem. If it’s a human problem, we may not solve it, but surely can think through it critically. That’s a big, and hopeful, first step! Tantalizing? Let’s Talk!

This session is designed for both beginners and practitioners. You’ll walk away with practical patterns for: • workflow design • context management • infrastructure changes • reducing unstructured “vibe coding” • building more reliable AI-assisted engineering workflows Honestly, not using agentic tooling in DevOps today is starting to feel a bit like refusing to use the internet in 2003. This isn’t about hype. It’s about leverage. And it’s an incredible time to be a builder — especially if you build with agents. 🍕 Come by at 5:30 PM for pizza and chats. 🎤 Presentation starts at 6:00 PM. **Volunteers / Sponsors / Speakers:** [KSUG.AI](https://ksug.ai/?ref=meetup) is actively seeking speakers & sponsors to support our KubeSmart & AI community.

LLM chat was the warm-up. Ask a question. Copy. Paste. Tweak. Useful — but capped. The real shift is agentic DevOps workflows using tools like Claude Code and the OpenAI Codex App — systems that can reason across repositories, plan multi-step changes, modify infrastructure, and operate closer to how real engineers build. This session is both 101 and 201. If you’re new to agentic tooling, you’ll understand what’s fundamentally different from chat-based usage. If you’re already experimenting, you’ll leave with practical agentic patterns for workflow design, context control, infrastructure changes, and avoiding unstructured vibe coding. Not using agentic tooling in DevOps today is starting to feel like refusing to use the internet in 2003. This isn’t about hype. It’s about leverage. It’s a great time to be a builder — if you build with agents. *Come at 5:30 pm have some pizza and chat for a bit. The presentation starts at 6:00 pm.*
