We will meet at La Querida, Passeig de Pujades 33, [https://goo.gl/maps/u5ZpycVXeZb7XyeE9](https://goo.gl/maps/u5ZpycVXeZb7XyeE9) You can leave your stuff there and we will begin running from outside the bar. A description of the route is below for your information. Before the run, we take a group photo and after we drink and/or eat at the bar (not mandatory). We will chat a bit before starting to run. The distance is about 10 kilometers (\~6 miles). However, there are plenty of opportunities to turn back before and sometimes people run a shorter distance. Each person runs at her/his own pace. Most of the time people are talking/chatting so it's honestly a casual run. Mini groups tend to form according to pace. Please note people run at their own risk and please if you have any medical condition make sure you let someone know and be sensible, run within your abilities. And don't forget to check our [facebook group](https://www.facebook.com/groups/319006355235925/) for news and activities! We kick off by running into the Ciutadella Park via the main gate. We then take a right to exit the park and immediately take a left to run alongside the round wall of the zoo (Passeig de Cicumvallacio). We then turn right at Carrer de Ramon Trias Fargas and head towards the beach. We then take a left turn and run along the beach heading northeast. Along the coast, we cross the Passeig Maritim de la Mar Bella for a quick stop at the water fountain and then turn back. The main change on the way back is that we turn right at the tram station along the other wall of the zoo (continuation of Carrer de Wellington) and once we reach the end of the wall, we are back to Passeig Pujades where we end our run.

🔧 Join us for **two talks** focusing on **getting more out of PHP** without unnecessary complexity, from async execution to performance insights. Stay for **discussion, drinks, and snacks** afterward. **Details** ⏰ Aptil 9th 🗓 Starting 6:30 pm 🇬🇧 Talks in English 🎟 Free 📍NN Working. Carrer de Pau Claris, 194, L'Eixample, 08037 Barcelona (4th floor) **Talks:** **1\. Topic:** **PHP Fibers: simplifying async code and speeding up development** **Speaker:** [Max Fomichev](https://www.linkedin.com/in/maxim-fomichev/), Infrastructure Engineer at Manychat **About the Talk** We constantly search for creative ways to get maximum out of php, without bringing excessive complexity for our developers daily work. In this speech I'll sum up our way, describe where are we now in a bit, and share how we started to use fibers and asynchronous http requests to speed up both our code writing and execution, while avoiding excessive cognitive load for our developers dealing with "asynchronous" programming. **About the Speaker** Max has decades of experience in IT, primarily focused on programming in PHP and running Unix servers. For the past six years, he has been working at Manychat, a leading chat-marketing platform, where I combine the roles of an Infrastructure Engineer, SRE, and developer, optimizing systems and ensuring reliability. **2\. Topic:** PHP Performance Demystified - Measure, Understand, Optimize **Speaker:** [Volker Dusch](https://www.linkedin.com/in/volker-dusch/), Head Of Engineering at Tideways, PHP 8.5 Release Manager **About the Talk** In this talk, we'll explore options for PHP performance analysis. From understanding how the PHP virtual machine and OPCodes work, to performing your own reliable and meaningful benchmarks, and how to use request profiling using open-source and commercial offerings. You will leave with an overview of the available tools and an understanding of how to use them in your day-to-day. Learning how to spot bottlenecks and optimize them away efficiently and confidently. **About the Speaker** With over 20 years of software development experience, Volker has seen PHP grow and mature from PHP 3, working on long-living custom applications in high-traffic environments. From social networks to medical data processing, he has worked as an engineer, team lead, and Head of Engineering, mostly focusing on PHP, Go, C, JavaScript, HTML/CSS and System Operations. https://phpc.social/@edorian **Thanks to Manychat to host the meetup** – [Learn more](http://%5Bhttps/%5B%5Bmedium.com/manychat-engineering%5D%5D%5D(%5Bmedium.com/manychat-engineering%5D%5D)(%5Bmedium.com/manychat-engineering%5D%5D(medium.com/manychat-engineering%5D))(https:/%5B%5Bmedium.com/manychat-engineering%5D%5D(%5Bmedium.com/manychat-engineering%5D)(%5Bmedium.com/manychat-engineering%5D(medium.com/manychat-engineering)))) about Manychat Engineering – [Careers](http://%5Bhttps/%5B%5Bcareers.manychat.com/%5D%5D%5D(%5Bcareers.manychat.com/%5D%5D)(%5Bcareers.manychat.com/%5D%5D(careers.manychat.com/%5D))(https:/%5B%5Bcareers.manychat.com/%5D%5D(%5Bcareers.manychat.com/%5D)(%5Bcareers.manychat.com/%5D(careers.manychat.com/)))) at Manychat – [Videos](http://%5Bhttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIfURI1S1wkA2sVy_AYtJcR_HyBpsTa2d%5D(https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIfURI1S1wkA2sVy_AYtJcR_HyBpsTa2d) "\[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIfURI1S1wkA2sVy_AYtJcR_HyBpsTa2d\](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIfURI1S1wkA2sVy_AYtJcR_HyBpsTa2d)") from the previous meetups

Marujas lo que se dice marujas… nosotras no somos.” En el barrio las llaman así: marujas, cotillas, curiosas. Pero ellas prefieren definirse de otra manera. Puede que a veces se les vaya la lengua, que siempre sepan lo que ocurre en el vecindario o que, de vez en cuando, decidan tomarse la justicia por su mano… pero, al fin y al cabo, ¿quién no disfruta de un buen cotilleo? () Marujonas, escrita por Carolina Morocho y adaptada junto a Yeison Forero, es una comedia satírica y de enredo que juega con el imaginario popular de las “marujas” de barrio. A través de tres personajes llenos de carácter, la obra explora con humor y descaro temas como la infidelidad, el deseo, la cultura cotidiana y la complicidad que nace entre mujeres que comparten escalera, secretos y confidencias. () En esta nueva versión, la acción se traslada a Barcelona, donde las conversaciones de balcón, los rumores de vecindario y las alianzas inesperadas adquieren un aire mediterráneo. Además, el espectáculo se presenta por primera vez en versión bilingüe castellano–catalán, incorporando la riqueza lingüística de la ciudad y reforzando el ritmo cómico de esta historia tan reconocible. Una comedia fresca, mordaz y muy cercana que ya ha conquistado a más de 2500 espectadores. Duración 65 minutos. Idioma: Castellano y Catalán Elenco: Inna Alcayde, Elisa Drabben y Yeison Forero Las puertas se abrirán a las 20:15 H La barra estará abierta durante todo el evento. Las opciones para la consumición incluída en la entrada serán : cerveza, vino, cava, vermut o refresco. La entrada comprada en puerta el día del evento costará 18€ pero no incluirá consumición. Las entradas compradas con código de descuento NO incluyen bebidas [¡Entradas aqui!](https://entradium.com/events/marujonas-barcelona-teatro-metamorfosis)

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.

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!

We're bringing the community together for a casual happy hour with ServiceNow-themed trivia, food and drinks, and great conversation. Details coming soon - for now, save the date and plan to join us for connection and fun.

At Unity of Columbus, our Youth and Family Ministry nurtures the spiritual growth of children and families through love, joy, and practical spiritual teachings.

Together, we celebrate diversity, cultivate understanding, and inspire each child to live with purpose and compassion. Parents and families are invited to join in this uplifting journey of learning, laughter, and spiritual connection.

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)
