Spanish & English Language Exchange

Concetti di programmazione funzionale come functor e monad sono spesso percepiti come astratti o lontani dallo sviluppo quotidiano. Eppure, se lavori con C# (o altri linguaggi mainstream moderni), è molto probabile che tu li stia già usando, anche senza saperlo. In questo talk vedremo cosa sono davvero, come riconoscerli e applicarli in modo consapevole nel codice di tutti i giorni, scoprendo come la programmazione funzionale stia influenzando sempre più il modo in cui scriviamo software.

Dear Microsoft Swiss PSUG, We have planned another exciting event. **Place & Language:** Place: Isolutions AG, Schanzenstrasse 4c, 3008 Bern (Hybrid with Teams) Language: EN **Session 1: The power of 'Domain Specific Languages' in PowerShell - DSL Explained.** Description: In this session, we’ll explore the power of Domain Specific Languages (DSLs) in PowerShell — what they really are, how they work under the hood, and how you can leverage them to write cleaner, more expressive, and more maintainable automation code. Speaker: [Stéphane van Gulick](https://www.linkedin.com/in/stephanevg/) **Session 2: Azure DevOps Pipeline und Container Registry** Description: Ever needed to deploy PowerShell modules to your company users without relying on the public PowerShell Gallery? This session explores how to distribute modules using PSResourceGet together with Azure Container Registry - a simple, self‑hosted, and independent solution. We'll cover the architecture, automated distribution, validation, testing, versioning, and how these principles apply to any deployable artifact such as container images or files. Beyond the mechanics, we'll discuss how to design scalable pipelines that avoid “works on my machine” issues and simplify maintenance. Whether you're building internal tooling or publishing modules for wider use, you’ll see how DevOps fundamentals help turn PowerShell code into reliable, reusable deliverables. Speaker: [MVP Fabien Tschanz](https://www.linkedin.com/in/fabientschanz/) **Agenda:** 17:00 Welcome 17:30 Session 1 18:15 Session 2 19:00 Networking and Beer 20:00 End of Event

Hallo liebe Java User Group Mitglieder! Diesmal haben wir Nils Hartmann mit seinem Talk zum Thema "**[Spring Modulith](https://spring.io/projects/spring-modulith)**" zu Gast. Wir freuen uns euch zu sehen (virtuell oder vor Ort). * 18:00 Uhr: Einlass * 18:30 Uhr: Talk * ab 19:30: Ausklang des Abends Dank an [qSkills](https://qskills.de/) für Location, Bier und Pizza! \-\-\- Oft sollen Anwendungen in entkoppelten Modulen entwickelt werden, um Ordnung und Struktur in unseren Code zu bekommen und darüber Wartbarkeit zu garantieren. Microservices stellen dafür einen sehr konsequenten Ansatz dar, können aber auch eine hohe Komplexität mit sich bringen. “Monolithen” hingen sind vergleichsweise bequem in der Entwicklung, stehen aber im Verdacht, schnell zu einem unübersichtlichen “Big Ball of Mud” zu werden. Diesem Problem versucht “Spring Modulith” entgegenzutreten. Damit werden Spring Boot-Anwendungen in einer gemeinsamen Codebasis entwickelt (”monolithisch”), innerhalb dieser werden aber Module definiert ("modulitisch"), deren korrekte Verwendung anhand von Architekturregeln kontinuierlich überprüft und sichergestellt wird. Außerdem erweitert Spring Modulith das Spring-eigene Eventsystem, um auch zur Laufzeit für eine Entkopplung der Module zu sorgen. In diesem Live-Coding-Vortrag möchte ich anhand praxisnaher Beispiele eine Einführung in Spring Modulith geben und mit euch diskutieren, welche Konsequenzen sich für unsere Anwendungen daraus ergeben und für welche Szenarien dieser Ansatz besonders geeignet ist. \-\-\- Dein Vortrag bei der Java Usergroup Nürnberg! Hast du dich in letzter Zeit in deinem Projekt oder privat mit einem interessanten Thema beschäftigt? Vermutlich ist das nicht nur für dich selbst interessant! Hast du Lust, selber einmal einen Vortrag bei der Java-Usergroup Nürnberg zu halten? Wir sind nicht nur auf Java-Themen fokussiert, sondern beschäftigen uns gern mit und um alles über Software Entwicklung und IT. Wir wollen bei der JUG nicht nur bekannten Speaker\*innen eine Plattform geben und die neuesten State-of-the-Art Technologien vorstellen. Wir freuen uns auch besonders, wenn wir Themen aus unserem technologischen (Arbeits-)alltag Raum geben zu können. Melde dich gerne bei uns, wenn du dazu Lust hast, wir geben wenn gewünscht gerne auch Hilfestellung bei der Vorbereitung!

We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able! Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!

Let's grab some coffee/food and share a morning chat! The East Market has an ample parking lot and outdoor and indoor seating. Grab a cup of coffee from Winston's Coffee & Waffles or on your way to East Market and meet us on the second floor - table behind or east of the elevator. Per what this group is about: "Everyone is welcome! International transplants to Columbus who want to improve language skills, Columbus residents who want to discuss international travel and culture, and anyone who enjoys getting together for good conversations."

Hey Everyone! Let's meet at Belle's Bread Bakery and Cafe. There is lots of free parking and easy access to the cafe and many shops and restaurants as well. This is a great way to meet new and old friends while chatting about life and practicing English language speaking skills. All are welcome and encouraged to join us anytime between 11am and 1pm. Looking forward to seeing you soon.

Inspired by our successful events like "Saturday Mornings @ East Market" and other "Pot Luck in the Park" lunches, this gathering promises to be a blend of fun conversations, language exchange, and cultural insights, all while sharing wonderful foods with each other. **Please bring a dish to share and anything you would like to drink.** We will provide plates, plastic silverware and napkins. So, come hungry and ready to chat!

While some are still meeting online, this is an in person event. Please note that we have attendees of all levels of speaking, including some native speakers. All are welcome! Also, as we meet at the same time and place each week, many don’t RSVP on the app, so we will likely have more attendees than noted here. Note: if you are asked to pay and upgrade the Meetup app, this is not necessary. You can ignore this and still attend our meetings. Find us on our [Facebook group](https://www.facebook.com/share/g/1EKw86WJCp/?mibextid=wwXIfr).

The aim of this group is to get together and practice our German. Doesn’t matter if are a beginner or a native speaker. The goal is to speak and improve our German. Everyone is welcome! If the weather is good, look for us in the Biergarten. Pro Tip: Get there before 6:00 for happy hour pricing.

Bienvenue! Columbus French Conversation group invites you to our Saturday morning French conversation club. Expect a casual and welcoming atmosphere in which to learn french! I will bring my laptop so we can look up new vocabulary as needed! The venue is a beautiful French restaurant so you can really get into the zone :)
