Ciao! L'appuntamento di aprile è per mercoledì 8 alle 19 con un altro interessante talk in presenza, sempre al [Politecnico di Milano](https://www.google.com/maps/place/45%C2%B028'41.3%22N+9%C2%B013'43.6%22E/@45.478127,9.228763,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m4!3m3!8m2!3d45.478127!4d9.228763?entry=ttu)! Questo mese testiamo un nuovo formato, quello del panel. Per questo motivo, questo mese 4 speaker diversi discuteranno e condivideranno il modo in cui usano l’AI al lavoro. L’AI per molte persone è uno degli alleati più importanti sul posto di lavoro: bisogna però saperla usare con criterio ed etica per ottenerne il meglio. Nello specifico, ecco chi sono i nostri speaker e di cosa parleranno: \- Dennis Ploetner: best practices per sfruttare l'AI nello sviluppo software \- Matteo Enna: come gestire i team non tecnici che desiderano approcciarsi al vibe coding in azienda \- Giovanni Invernizzi: come sfruttare l'AI per un'ottimizzazione avanzata delle web performance \- Stefano Minoia: come utilizzare l'AI per rendere un sito più accessibile Sai cosa c’è di bellissimo? Il fatto che, se vorrai, potrai partecipare anche tu al giro di tavolo condividendo (anche da remoto se ci segui in streaming) il modo in cui anche tu hai integrato l’AI nel tuo flusso di lavoro. Porta i tuoi successi, ma anche i tuoi dubbi e i vostri fallimenti, perchè alla fine community significa crescere l’un l’altro. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Saremo in diretta streaming Non puoi partecipare di persona? Noi non ti giudicheremo! :) Se vuoi, puoi seguirci anche in diretta streaming su YouTube. Il link sarà visibile solo una volta che avrai fatto la tua iscrizione all'evento. Durante la diretta, se vorrai, potrai intervenire anche tu usando una webcam e un microfono per dire la tua: basterà usare il link che verrà fornito via chat. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- I prossimi appuntamenti della community WordPress Checkout Summit La prima conferenza indipendente dal vivo per i professionisti di WooCommerce. 23-24 aprile a Palermo [https://checkoutsummit.com/](https://checkoutsummit.com/) WordCamp Torino 8-9 maggio a Torino [https://torino.wordcamp.org/2026/](https://torino.wordcamp.org/2026/) WordCamp Europe 4-6 giugno a Cracovia [https://europe.wordcamp.org/2026/](https://europe.wordcamp.org/2026/) \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- In breve, ecco come sarà organizzata la serata: 19:00 Benvenuto + networking 19:20 Panel (di circa 50 minuti) 20:10 Domande e risposte 20:30 Fine; Chi vuole può continuare il networking in un bar o pizzeria vicino al luogo dell’evento. All’inizio dell’incontro faremo il conteggio per prenotare: per non creare disguidi conferma la presenza solo se sei sicuro di venire. Networking significa che ci sarà tempo per chiacchierare con chi partecipa e fare amicizia. Potresti trovare una persona interessante, un futuro cliente, un futuro fornitore o un nuovo partner di lavoro, chi può dirlo? Non riesci a venire, o devi dare la tua disdetta? Nessun rancore, sarà per la prossima. Ti chiediamo solo di farci sapere 24 ore prima così - liberiamo il tuo posto per altre persone. Vuoi essere speaker? Beh, nulla di più facile: Compila il modulo [cliccando qui](https://wpmilano.org/speaker-form/). Ti risponderemo per fornirti tutti i dettagli. Ci vediamo lì! 😉

Domenica mattina, alle 11, nel verde di Villa Torlonia, ci prendiamo un’ora. Un’ora per rallentare il ritmo della settimana, rientrare nel corpo, respirare con più attenzione. Inizieremo con una pratica di yoga accessibile, per sciogliere tensioni e ritrovare presenza, e lasceremo poi spazio alla meditazione, senza forzature, senza aspettative. Non serve esperienza, non serve “saper fare”. Basta arrivare. Il contributo è di 10€. Porta con te un tappetino e qualcosa di semplice ma essenziale: disponibilità a fermarti, anche solo per un momento. Ci vediamo lì!

The topic for April is "Water" Speak Easy: true stories, told live. The idea is simple: an audience, an open microphone, and great stories. Hilarious, gripping, poignant- it's up to you. Audiences are invited to come to listen or come to tell as folks from all corners of Columbus offer their stories live on stage! Held at Wild Goose Creative's warm, intimate space, this night of tales occurs on the 3rd Thursday of every month. Doors open at 6:30 pm, show starts at 7:00 pm. Please arrive early if you want to tell, as we generally only have room for a limited number of tellers, and the sign-up sheet has a tendency to fill up fast. Formed around the idea that people need stories--they're what hold and draw us together--SpeakEasy celebrates the strangeness and commonness of being human. And in a world of smartphones, Facebook, Twitter, and more . . . it gives people a real, breathing, in-person way to connect. The night is geared for true stories of all kinds, taking the best tales told around kitchen tables, in darkened pubs, on the street corner, and at late-night parties and giving them an audience. Speak Easy is also a great outlet for performers, writers, and artists looking to share their favorite stories and perfect their skills. We strongly encourage tellers to please tell the story rather than read it so we keep within the spirit of good storytelling and stay engaged with the audience. All are welcome. Hang around after the show for a drink and build community!

Join us for a tour of Brothers Drake Meadery in Grandview, hosted by the owner Oron Benary. He will explain the mead-making process and offer us generous samples of their fine meads. Mead is basically wine that is made from honey instead of grapes. There are many different flavors that range from dry, semi-dry, semi-sweet, to sweet. They are best known for their Apple Pie Mead. Oron has offered us a special price of 5.00 each person for the tour and tasting, which is normally 25.00 per person. I've taken the tour several times, and it's always enlightening and fun. Rebecca will bring a tea that will pair well with the mead for a tea tasting afterwards. Park anywhere around the building. Please avoid parking in front of the houses in the neighborhood behind the Meadery. Please keep your RSVP current. Knowing how many will attend will help Brothers Drake plan accordingly to accommodate us.
