Let's back to run ! We will meet by the Magic Fountain (Font Magica de Montjuic (https://goo.gl/maps/RWPuTcn8htM2)) - Plaça de Carles Buïgas at the end of the first stairs - just 2 minutes walking from placa Espana towards Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya. We'll decide the route on the day.. or just follow Olivier... ;) We'll meet at 7:00pm but we'll start running at 7:05pm. Please be on time. Normally we do about 8-10kms in an hour during which we climb to the castle at the top of Montjuic. The accumulated elevation is about 300m depending on the route. Note that this is *NOT* a beginner's run. It can be quite challenging. We recommend that you only join this run if, on a flat course, you can do 10km in 50mins or less or really like running up hill! If not it might be better to first start with one of the beach runs on Tuesday or Thursday. Starting from October it is getting dark pretty early and not all the streets of the route have lights. If you have a headlamp please bring it with you but it is not mandotory. Let´s do the entire route together and after the training we can go as usual for a fresh drink at a bar nearby *** De vuelta en el Montjuic ! Quedamos en la Plaça de Carles Buïgas (donde está la Font Magica de Montjuic), exactamente aquí (https://goo.gl/maps/RWPuTcn8htM2), al lado de la barandilla que está al final de las primeras escaleras. Si vienes desde plaça Espanya, son 2 minutos caminando en dirección al Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya. Cada lunes hacemos un recorrido distinto por Montjuic que decidimos en el mismo día… o sencillamente seguimos a Olivier… ;) Nos encontramos a las 7:00, y empezamos a correr a las 7:05. Normalmente hacemos más o menos 8-10 km en una hora, subiendo hasta el castillo en la cima de Montjuic, con un desnivel positivo total de cerca de 300 metros. Es un entrenamiento exigente aunque accesible si ya tienes algo de experiencia corriendo. No está hecho para debutante. Por favor apúntate solo si puedes correr 10km en 50 minutos mas o menos. De octubre a mayo el recorrido es de noche por lo que es recomendable llevar frontal, aunque si no tienes, no hace falta. Realizamos todo el recorrido juntos y después del entreno solemos ir a tomar algo a un bar cercano. Monday is Montjuic track example https://www.strava.com/activities/926870931 https://www.strava.com/activities/5431087155 https://www.strava.com/activities/5275162408 OIivier

Hi and welcome to our next Socrates Café philosophy meetup! Do you have a hunger for deeper understanding of yourself and the world? Do you value deep, honest and respectful dialogue? If yes, then this meetup will be very interesting for you. • WHAT IS A MEETUP ABOUT? We ask, answer and discuss questions and ideas to stimulate critical thinking and to widen our perspectives with new concepts and thoughts. The main purpose of these meetups is to enrich ourselves with the perspectives of others, not to convince others about our own perspectives. Our meetups are about our own philosophies of life and not necessarily what the great philosophers and academics have said or written. It is not a debating club or a platform for proselytizing. Instead, we place the emphasis on questioning, open mindedness and challenging our own assumptions while listening to and respecting the views shared by others. A Socrates Café meetup is considered a success when participants leave a discussion with many more questions than they had at the beginning. • WHAT TOPIC IS DISCUSSED AT THE MEETUP? Participants suggest topics at the beginning of each meeting. We then vote and choose that event's most popular topic for discussion. No academic training in philosophy necessary; just enthusiasm for exchanging ideas and points of view. Some examples of subjects chosen on previous meetups: * What ideals are worth dying for? * Why are we never satisfied? * Why is it that human beings know that the society is going wrong, leaders are well informed about it and things continue as is? * Is identity necessary? * How can it be that people in democratic societies are so obsessed with power? (Desire to be different, better, stronger than others) * What is friendship? • WHO PARTICIPATES AT THIS MEETUP? Anybody is more than welcome to join our meetups. Our events gather people from different backgrounds, different cultures, while no philosophical background is mandatory. Our usual participants are people that have a hunger for deeper understanding of themselves and the world. People that value deep, honest and respectful dialogue. The inspiration for Socrates Cafe originates with the book of the same name, written by the philosopher Christopher Phillips. (Socrates Cafe: A Fresh Taste of Philosophy, 2002). Phillips felt that the Socratic method of dialogue and discussion should be practiced not just in academic settings, but among everyday people interested in examining deep questions together. Hundreds of Socrates Cafe groups now exist around the world.

**CASI NORMAL** es rendirse a lo evidente: la salud mental hace aguas, la economía está en la UCI y el amor es casi un meme, pero seguimos diciendo "todo bien, gracias". En escena se disecciona, sin anestesia y sin tabús, la familia disfuncional, el sexo torpe, las adicciones cotidianas, envejecer mal y esa espiritualidad low cost de frases de Instagram que no arreglan nada pero quedan monísimas. Con humor incisivo e irreverente, "Casi normal" apunta a todos: padres, vecinas, ex parejas, "madurez", terapeutas y, sobre todo, al propio cómico, que sacó matrícula en desastres. No hay temas prohibidos: solo la incomodidad de reconocerse en cada chiste y pensar "hostia, eso me suena". Es un viaje cómico por la cabeza de alguien que está a medio camino entre el brote y la iluminación, demostrando que nadie es normal, y el que diga que sí que lo demuestre!! Más de una hora de comedia "normal" para gente "normal". [ENTRADAS EN ATRÁPALO](https://www.atrapalo.com/entradas/casi-normal_e4920806/) https://www.atrapalo.com/entradas/casi-normal_e4920806/

Join us for an evening dedicated to **practical AI applications**, where we’ll explore how to build intelligent agents and harness the power of vector search. Whether you’re a developer, data enthusiast, or simply curious about AI, this meetup is a great opportunity to learn, connect, and have fun with the community. **Agenda** **6:30 PM – Welcome, Registration & Meet and Greet** Arrive early, grab your badge, and connect with other AI enthusiasts before the sessions begin. **7:00 PM – Running a RAG locally** Learn how to build and run Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) systems entirely on your local environment, ensuring privacy, control, and reduced latency. **7:30 PM – MongoDB MCP** Discover how MongoDB integrates with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to enable scalable, real-time data access for AI applications and agents. **8:00 PM – Long-term memory for agents** Explore strategies and architectures to equip AI agents with long-term memory, enabling more consistent, context-aware, and personalized interactions. **8:30 PM – Pizza, Networking, Swag & Closing** Enjoy some pizza, grab exclusive MongoDB swag, and continue networking with the community. **Sessions** **Title: Running a RAG locally** **Summary:** In this session, we will walk through how to design and deploy a Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) system running fully on local infrastructure. We’ll cover key components such as embeddings, vector databases, and local LLMs, and discuss trade-offs between performance, cost, and privacy. Attendees will gain a practical understanding of how to build secure and efficient AI systems without relying on external APIs. **Title: MongoDB MCP** **Summary:** This talk introduces MongoDB’s role within the Model Context Protocol (MCP) ecosystem, enabling AI models and agents to interact seamlessly with live data. We’ll explore how MCP standardizes communication between models and tools, and how MongoDB can be used to store, retrieve, and manage structured and unstructured data in real time. Practical use cases and integration patterns will be demonstrated. **Title: Long-term memory for agents** **Summary:** As AI agents become more sophisticated, the need for persistent and meaningful memory becomes critical. In this session, we will explore different approaches to implementing long-term memory, including vector-based memory, structured storage, and hybrid architectures. We’ll also discuss challenges such as memory retrieval, relevance, and scalability, and how these impact real-world agent performance. **Important:** This event will be held in Spanish / Este evento se realizará en español

Vivimos en una realidad compartida, aparentemente objetiva, regida por ciertas reglas del “campo de juego”. Sin embargo, el ser humano, a través de su propio sistema de funcionamiento —mente, emociones y biología—, genera una realidad de segundo orden que interactúa constantemente con esa matriz. Comprender cómo funcionan estas reglas y aprender a manejarlas puede convertirse en una de las claves para crear una realidad más alineada con nuestro propósito de vida y vivir con mayor plenitud y consciencia. En esta conferencia exploraremos, desde una mirada integradora que conecta psicología, biología y física, cómo funciona esta “matrix” y cuál es el verdadero sistema operativo del ser humano. Tomaremos conciencia de posibles distorsiones en nuestra forma de percibir y procesar la realidad, y veremos cómo reprogramar nuestro propio sistema interno para sostener un estado mental y emocional más elevado que impulse cambios reales en nuestra vida. Porque quizá la cuestión no sea **escapar de la Matrix**, sino comprender las reglas del juego… para aprender a jugar mejor. ✨ **Ponente:** Judith Vidal - Psicóloga **Colaboración**: 5€ én efectivo. No Bizum. (Costes de sala y organización) **Formato**: Presencial y participativo.

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

The Fellowship of the Star Schema: Transforming OLTP Data for Power BI One does not simply build reports on OLTP data. Join us on an epic journey from the depths of raw, normalized tables to the shining halls of a well-modeled star schema fit for Power BI greatness. We will demystify the differences between OLTP and OLAP, walk through star schema vs snowflake (and why Power BI has a clear favorite), and show you the compression differences between normalized and columnar storage that will make you never look at an OLTP model the same way again. We will cover the different types of dimensions, when to use them, and how to handle Slowly Changing Dimensions without losing your mind. You will leave knowing exactly how to identify a bad model, how to convert OLTP data into a clean star schema, and how to forge relationships that rule them all. Whether you are a data wizard, a curious hobbit, or somewhere in between, your models will never be the same.

Come assist Van Buren Shelter (https://ymcacolumbus.org/locations/vanburen) staff in serving dinners and cleaning up on the 3rd Tuesday of each month. Dinner for the women is 5-6 pm and for the families is 6:15-7:15 pm. There is ample free parking available in the shelter's lot. The recommended area to park is in green in the image above. There will be a new entrance for the time being. We are asking all volunteers to enter through the Donation Dock door, the orange mark on the image above. This door is located between the Single Adults and Family Shelter. You will see 2 large garage doors with a large green trash compactor in the center. Please head to the closest garage door to the building wall, with a ramp leading up. There, you will see a door with a sign stating instructions on how to enter the building. Please ring the doorbell, and a staff member will come and escort you into the building. If a staff member takes longer than 5 minutes, please call the front desk at 614-689-2020. This is a new process for us, and we do not want to keep you waiting! We appreciate your patience as we navigate this temporary change. The shelter needs a volunteer count the day before the event so sign-up ends Monday at 4:50 PM. Afterwards some of us go to the Omnipresent Atheists Weekly Meetup in progress to have a bit to eat or drink (http://www.meetup.com/omnipresentatheists/). Volunteers must be 14 or older. Since we will be working around families, the YMCA does not permit volunteering by individuals with convictions for violent or sexual crimes. The YMCA reserves the right to run background checks on volunteers. For questions, comment on this page or contact: Andrew, awhit12@yahoo.com, (614)937-5802 (cell). Please let Andrew know if you volunteer anytime other than our COUNT events so that he can count your hours toward our service record.
