TWI ? Bacs rouges ? Flux Tiré ? Takt ? PDCA ? Venez découvrir ou redécouvrir le lean en vrai, en pratiquant lors d'un serious game gratuit, en présentiel, et dans une ambiance fun ! L’Atelier Cocottes est un « serious game » basé sur le pliage de papier. Vous apprendrez à pratiquer les éléments de base du Toyota Way et du TPS : faire la distinction entre une mauvaise et une bonne formation TWI, écouter activement votre client, isoler les défauts, fluidifier le processus, se mettre au rythme du client, et à chaque fois à réfléchir ensemble pour trouver une action d’amélioration efficace et apprendre à mieux maitriser ses gestes métier. Ce jeu permet ainsi de prendre conscience de l’intérêt de la formation des équipes sur le terrain, de l’écoute active du client, de la qualité intégrée/Jidoka, du Juste à Temps avec le flux, le rythme client… Les fondamentaux du Lean management ! L’atelier sera suivi d’un moment de prise de recul et d’échanges entre participants. Comme ce serious game nécessite un nombre minimum de participants, prévenez moi après votre inscription, si vous ne pouvez pas venir désinscrivez-vous pour laisser la place à une autre personne sur la plate-forme ! Merci d'avance 🙏 . • Niveau requis : aucun • A apporter : uniquement vous-même 😀 Au plaisir de vous y retrouver ! Marc

The Dissident Salon is a weekly poetry and performance series created as an extension of the DISSIDENT Club’s mission to provide a home for dissenting voices, hosted by Alissa Leeds. Rooted in the tradition of the literary salon, it treats writing and performance as public acts that question power and challenge the systems that shape our lives. Each week features a curated performer, followed by open mic sessions open to all. Work may be presented in English, French, or other languages. Multilingual expression is central to the space and reflects the realities of exile, displacement, and exchange that define the DISSIDENT Club. The Salon is an ongoing forum for people who speak publicly and think critically through art. It exists to build community and support sustained creative work within the broader ecosystem of the DISSIDENT Club. **When:** Every Tuesday, starting January 6th, 2026 **Sign-ups:** 8:00 PM **Sets:** Three 45-minute sessions at 9:00 PM, 10:00 PM, and 11:00 PM **Where:** The DISSIDENT Club, 58 rue Richer, 75009 Bring work that confronts. We offer the microphone.

Join us on **April 8, 2026** at our Paris office for an evening at the intersection of data, AI, and public health, from making tap water quality transparent to every French citizen, to reimagining what clinical care looks like in 2030. Two speakers. Two projects. One shared conviction: complex data, in the right hands, changes lives. *** **6:30 – 7:15 pm \| Jérémy Greze\, Freelance Product × Data × Dev** **44 Volunteers, 10 GB of Open Data, 650K Visitors, and a Question in Parliament** *In October 2025, [dansmoneau.fr](http://dansmoneau.fr) went live — a site where any French citizen can check exactly what's in their tap water. Within days it was featured on the front page of Le Monde, with prime time TV coverage, and a question raised in Parliament. Budget: zero.* *Behind it were 10 GB of open government data, 44 volunteers from Data For Good, and the scientific expertise of Générations Futures. The data had always been there — public, collected monthly by health authorities — just buried and impossible to use. They made it accessible.* *This talk is the technical story of how they achieved this by designing the data pipeline, discovering that 10 GB is actually small data with the right tools, and rendering 24,000 water zones on an interactive map without crashing the browser. And if time allows — what the data actually reveals about PFAS, pesticides, nitrates, VCM, and perchlorate across France.* *** **7:15 – 8:00 pm \| Li\-Heng Fu\, Senior AI Solution Engineer\, Health & Life Sciences — Dataiku** **Building the Future of Care: Clinical AI in 2030** *"There are decades where nothing happens, and there are weeks when decades happen."* For decades, healthcare was a fortress of inertia — guarded by data privacy constraints, rigid workflows, and high-stakes accountability. Those walls are coming down. Not just because of technology, but because of the clinicians and builders choosing to lead the charge. Drawing on the latest Stanford ARISE AI research and emerging industry breakthroughs, Li-Heng will trace the shift from experimental benchmarks to real bedside applications — exploring the rise of multimodal diagnostic agents, ambient scribing, and autonomous healthcare assistants. The session closes with a harder question: as AI reshapes healthcare by 2030, what kind of patient-doctor relationship are we actually trying to build? *** The talks will be followed by open discussion and networking. Come ready to ask questions. *8 - 10PM: Meet & greet with drinks* ***Dataiku will only use your personal information to provide the product or service you requested and contact you with related content that may interest you.

The Aeneid is a Latin epic poem that tells the legendary story of Aeneas, a Trojan who fled the fall of Troy and travelled to Italy, where he became the ancestor of the Romans. Written by the Roman poet Virgil between 29 and 19 BC, the Aeneid comprises 9,896 lines in dactylic hexameter. The first six of its twelve books tell the story of Aeneas' wanderings from Troy to Italy, and the latter six tell of the Trojans' ultimately victorious war upon the Latins, under whose name Aeneas and his Trojan followers are destined to be subsumed. The hero Aeneas was already known to Graeco-Roman legend and myth, having been a character in the Iliad. Virgil took the disconnected tales of Aeneas' wanderings, his vague association with the foundation of Rome, and his description as a personage of no fixed characteristics other than a scrupulous pietas, and fashioned the Aeneid into a compelling founding myth or national epic that tied Rome to the legends of Troy, explained the Punic Wars, glorified traditional Roman virtues, and legitimized the Julio-Claudian dynasty as descendants of the founders, heroes, and gods of Rome and Troy. The Aeneid is widely regarded as Virgil's masterpiece and one of the greatest works of Latin literature

Salut à toutes et tous! Nous sommes heureux de vous convier à un événement 100% Spring. Un beau programme avec la présence du grand Josh Long (https://joshlong.com) qui vient refaire le talk qu'il a donné au Devoxx dans une ambiance de partage avec la communauté autour d'un buffet. On remercie **Theodo** de nous accueillir pour cette soirée. On a hâte de tous vous retrouver ! A très vite! L'équipe du Spring Meetup Paris Le programme: **Bootiful Spring Boot 4! (En anglais)** *Josh Long* Spring Boot 4.x and Java 25 have arrived, making it an exciting time to be a Java/Kotlin developer! Join me, Josh Long (@starbuxman), as we dive into the future of Spring Boot with Java 25+. We'll learn how to scale your applications and codebases effortlessly and explore the robust Spring Boot ecosystem, featuring AI, modularity, seamless data access, security, and cutting-edge production optimizations such as Project Loom's virtual threads, GraalVM, Java AOT, and more. Let's explore the latest-and-greatest in Spring Boot to build faster, more scalable, more efficient, more modular, more secure, and more intelligent systems and services. **Spring AI : avec les RAGs et Function Calling donnez une mémoire et des mains à votre LLM** *Matthieu Jacques* Les LLMs sont impressionnants — jusqu'au moment où vous leur posez une question sur vos données métier, ou que vous leur demandez d'agir sur vos systèmes. Le fine-tuning est coûteux, lent et rigide. Il existe une meilleure approche. Dans ce talk, nous explorerons deux patterns fondamentaux de Spring AI pour construire des assistants métier vraiment utiles. Le RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) d'abord : comment donner au LLM accès à vos documents, vos bases de connaissance et vos données internes, sans ré-entraîner le modèle. Le Function Calling ensuite : comment permettre au LLM d'appeler votre code Java pour récupérer des données en temps réel et déclencher des actions dans vos systèmes. En 20 minutes, démo incluse, vous repartirez avec les deux briques essentielles pour construire un agent métier sérieux avec Spring Boot portable, interchangeable entre fournisseurs de LLM, et idiomatique pour tout développeur Spring. Parce qu'un LLM qui sait et qui agit, c'est autre chose.

Bienvenue à la projection du film-essai EX-VOTO (2026, 80mn) de Hu Jiamin à l’occasion du finissage de son exposition « Ex-voto politiques » au Dissident Club jeudi 9 avril de 19h à 21h ! Le film est une élégie visuelle et sonore qui entrelace les peintures ex-voto de Hu Jiamin et les événements sociaux et personnels (pandémie, manifestations, résistance, exil, son arrestation en Chine en 2017, son voyage en Russie en 2025 etc.) avec lesquels ses peintures sont associées, de manière complexe, nuancée, poétique et humoristique. L’artiste sera présent pour discuter avec vous après la projection. Welcome to the screening of Hu Jiamin's essay film EX-VOTO (2026, 80 min) at The Dissident Club on Thursday, April 9th, from 7 pm to 9 pm on the occasion of the closing of his exhibition "Political Ex-votos." The film is a visual and sound elegy that intertwines Hu Jiamin's ex-voto paintings with the social and personal events (pandemic, protests, resistance, exile, his arrest in China in 2017, his journey to Russia in 2025, etc.) with which his paintings are associated, in a complex, nuanced, poetic, and humorous way. The artist will be present to discuss his work with you after the screening. - Hu Jiamin est un artiste d’origine chinoise basé à Lyon travaillant à la fois la peinture et la vidéo. Il commence sa pratique artistique dans un village de la province du Yunnan, cette expérience dans la Chine rurale influençant profondément l’importance qu’il porte à la responsabilité sociale des artistes. En 2017, la censure et la destruction de sa peinture murale à Shenzhen et sa détention lors de la Biennale d’Urbanisme et d’Architecture de Shenzhen et Hong Kong l’amènent à réfléchir à la relation entre art et dissidence. Ses œuvres expriment la façon dont l’histoire globalisée s’incarne dans nos existences, dépeignant la tension entre la simplicité et la fragilité de la vie quotidienne et l’inexorabilité des forces politiques qui la sous-tendent.

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid. You can meet us in-person or attend online Join Zoom Meeting [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1) Meeting ID: 878 3656 4953 Passcode: 760812 One tap mobile +19292056099,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (New York) +13017158592,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (Washington DC) The formal presentation will start at noon

AI is changing how art is made. But when does it stop being your work and start being the machine’s? This month we're going to be doing a panel with with digital image, music, and written word artists, talking about at what point, while using AI in the creation process, does the work become not the artist creation? We encourage audience participation during this event that will be moderated by Chris Slee. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus. Sponsored by [Transform Labs](https://www.transformlabs.com/services)

**Connected Westerville Night of Networking** *April Edition: The Introduction Economy* You've been to the networking events. You've done the small talk. Collected the cards. Forgotten the names. And walked out feeling like you just wasted two hours of your life. The problem isn't you. It's the format. Most networking events put you in a room and tell you to figure it out. So everyone defaults to elevator pitches and business talk, and nothing real gets built. Here's the truth about networking that most people miss: Your network isn't just who you know. It's who thinks of you when they're talking to someone else. *That's* The Introduction Economy. And it only works when relationships are real. There's a reason people who come once keep coming back. It starts with seven minutes that feel nothing like networking. Then we open it up. Free networking. More conversations. More momentum. This is a room full of corporate professionals, entrepreneurs, business owners, creatives, and career builders in the Westerville and Columbus area. The mix is the magic. You might never do business with everyone you meet tonight. But someone in this room will think of *you.* **By name**. So, the next time someone needs exactly what you do, you get the recommendation. **April 14th. RSVP now.** **When:** Tuesday\, April 14th \| 6:15 PM \-\- 8:00 PM **Where:** Vineyard Community Center \| 6000 Cooper Rd\, Westerville\, OH 43081

Sleep in on Sundays. When you've had your fill of pajama-time, roll out and have some tasty brunch with your fellow Humanists!

On Thursday, April 16, 2026, we will meet at the 700N Conference Room at 700 N Hurstbourne Pkwy. Doors will open at 6:00 p.m., and the presentations will begin sharply at 6:30 p.m. Along with an excellent presentation, TEKsystems will provide food. Please RSVP so we know how much food to order. Afterward, we will go to Brick House Tavern for drinks and food to continue the conversation. The session will also be broadcast at https://twitch.tv/TaleLearnCode. ### What If Your AI Could Be a Team? GitHub Copilot is powerful, but what if you could scale from a solo AI assistant to an entire team of specialized agents working in parallel? This session introduces Squad: an open-source framework for multi-agent orchestration that lets you define teams of AI agents with specific roles, responsibilities, and expertise. We'll progress from Copilot basics to the Copilot CLI, explore how Agents add autonomy, and see how Instructions and Skills let you customize agent behavior. Then, the climax: a live demo where a Squad team of 3 agents (Lead, Developer, Tester) stands up and builds a working application in real-time, showcasing true multi-agent collaboration. Whether you're new to AI or exploring how to scale your use of Copilot, this session will show you what's possible when agents work as a team.
