Human Resources

Maybe we all could be working remotely, getting things done through armies of AI agents. But do we want to? Working as Lead Facilitator and Design Thinking Architect in MSD, Lukas sees a lot of demand for human connection - even in workshops focused on designing AI solutions. In this Meetup, you’re going to pack your facilitator’s toolbox. You will experience and learn exercises that help professionals across various domains empathize, connect and learn from each other. Warning: By joining this Meetup you are at risk of making new friends. Attend at your own risk! **Speakers**: * Lukáš Liebich **Agenda**: * 17:30 – 17:45 - Registration * 17:45 - 19:15 Interactive Workshop * 19:15 – 20:00 Networking time See you there! Please note: photos and/or short videos may be taken during this event for use in our promotional and marketing materials (website, social media, newsletters, etc.). If you prefer not to be photographed or recorded, please let an organizer know when you arrive and we will do our best to accommodate your request.

We will discuss our reactions and interpretations of Flannery O'Connor's most anthologised short story, readable online in the first 32 pages of the document [here](https://jerrywbrown.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/02/A-Good-Man-Is-Hard-To-Find-and-other-stories-OConnor-Flannery.pdf) (this document's spacing and font make the story much longer, it is about 11 pages in my edition). This is a story from 1955 which builds on the theme of the southern gothic genre which we explored last time with Faulkner's story (though O'Connor self described her genre as "Christian Realism"). The story is interested in theological and moral questions, and will hopefully provide many interesting questions for us to ponder as we explore its ideas. I look forward to speaking about it with you!

Hello beautiful humans 💛 A little idea that started as a conversation between three friends is now slowly turning into something real. We’re organizing a Blind Dating Event for Single Mums here in Prague - because let’s be real… dating these days isn’t exactly easy. So this is our small attempt to change it ✨ We’re not a big company. We’re not professionals. Just three humans who know what it feels like to be overlooked, misunderstood, or “not the typical dating pool”… and who genuinely want to create something kind, safe, and actually enjoyable. 💫 What to expect? A relaxed, friendly gathering where the goal is simple: no pressure, no awkward expectations - just meeting new people, having a laugh, and seeing what happens. And yes… there’s a little twist 😉 👉 Each participant brings one single male friend Someone you trust, someone kind, someone you’d actually recommend. This way, we keep the space: ✔ safe ✔ respectful ✔ and full of genuinely good people Plus - you’ll always have a familiar face around. 📍 Venue: will be confirmed once we reach enough participants (minimum 10-15 mums) 📅 Date: aiming for April (12th is a possibility, but we’re flexible!) 💌 Want to join? Send us a message and we’ll add you to the list And one small, honest note from us: This is our first time doing something like this. We’re learning as we go, and we truly want to make it something special. Kind feedback helps us improve. Negativity doesn’t help anyone 💛 If this speaks to you - or to someone you know - please share it. Let’s make dating feel human again. We’d love to have you with us ✨ Ginger, Belinda, Kristy

**IMPORTANT! Please register on [Luma event](https://luma.com/8b1pmcxd)** ​Designers work with AI every day now.

For more information about the competition, please click **[HERE](https://deepscout-challenge.miton.cz/).** Web scraping is no longer just about simple scripts. Modern websites are complex, dynamic, and protected by many anti-scraping systems. At the same time, companies need large amounts of structured data from the web. In this event, we will focus on a real scraping use case and use it to explain how modern scraping works. You will learn what kinds of protections websites use today, what tools can be used depending on website difficulty, and what technical challenges appear in practice. We will also show how machine learning and AI help turn messy web data into structured, usable information. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- ⌚️ **Start**: 16:00 and end at 17:00, both online and offline in **Truhlárna Karlín** (Šaldova 388/5) - **Onsite attendance is limited to 100 people.** 🎙️ **Speakers:** Jan Mittner, Michal Marhan 🍻 **Networking** after the seminar – great food and cold beer waiting for you! **🎥 Recording:** After the event we will publish a recording and post a link to it in the comments. 🚪**Doors open** at 15:45, and the event officially starts at 16:00.

This is an informal event for English speaking teachers. We network, build relationships and exchange ideas. If you’re facing any challenges, than feel free to talk about it with the group. Jeffie has been able to successfully collect payment from a work benefit. If you like to hear about it, free to ask her at the next meetup. As an elementary school teacher I've noticed that Czech schools seem to have less tells for behavior modification than American schools (though generally well behaved students). I would love to hear from other teachers what their behavior modification methods are. I ask for 30 crowns to cover the cost of monthly meet-up groups. I look forward to seeing old friends and making new ones. See you soon Aaron

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.

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.
