Charla de 💔 ¿Por qué te atrae quien te hace daño? ¿Te has encontrado repitiendo el mismo tipo de relación… aunque sabes que no te conviene? No es casualidad. 👉 Es un patrón. Masaya y yo, Judit hemos creado este encuentro en Barcelona para que entiendas qué hay detrás de tu forma de amar y cómo empezar a cambiarlo. No será solo teoría. Será una experiencia para ver, sentir y comprender. ✨ Te llevarás: • Claridad • Herramientas • Conexión real 🤍 Un espacio seguro, sin juicios, donde podrás compartir o simplemente escuchar. Este evento es gratuito, pero se ruega a los participantes que pidas una consumición Te esperamos. Quizá no es casualidad que estés aquí.

Volvemos a la carga con mucho teatro y más ganas que nunca de poder compartir este maravilloso arte con vosotros. Teatro en estado puro al alcance de todos! El nivel inicial tiene una gran importancia en el camino del desarrollo teatral, ya que en este primer contacto con el teatro nos basamos en comprender el hecho teatral en sí. Para ello realizamos una formación actoral básica, basándonos en las técnicas y disciplinas básicas de las artes escénicas, así como en los conocimientos indispensables para cualquier actor. Trabajo de improvisación, voz, expresión corporal, paleta emotiva, escenas, creación y trabajo de personajes, creación propia, desbloqueos etc. Siempre trabajando de una manera lúdica, el alumno podrá investigar las distintas herramientas escénicas que se pueden dar en el espacio teatral, mejorar la expresividad, potenciar la creatividad, el trabajo en grupo, la autoestima, y mucho más. Tomará conciencia de su cuerpo, del espacio, aprenderá de forma práctica como es la relación con los objetos, la creación de personajes y el trabajo de la improvisación, mejorando la expresión corporal y oral. Pero sobretodo DIVERTIRSE HACIENDO TEATRO, ese es nuestro principal objetivo. No os preocupéis si no hay mucha gente apuntada por meetup, la actividad se hace igual porque tenemos más gente apuntada por otros lugares.

Let your attendees know what to expect, including the agenda, what they need to bring, and how to find the group.

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

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.

Central Ohio Radio Enthusiasts—CORE—is an informal community for anyone enthusiastic or curious about radio—whether you're new to radio and want to learn or you've been tinkering for years and want to share. Ham radio operators, GMRS users, Meshtastic fans, software-defined radio nerds, makers, and technical and non-technical folks are all welcome. No experience required or expected. This month we have **WiFi HaLow: Introduction and Practical Use** with **Alex Barbur**. Details are are [core.radio](https://core.radio).

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** 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. **YouTube Link** TBD
