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?

Hello 👋 I created this community to bring together remote workers based in Rome: freelancers, full-time remote employees, digital nomads, or anyone working remotely who wants to connect in real life. The idea is simple: organize coworking days share cool in-person events to join and mostly build real connections, not just virtual/working ones. Let’s keep it informal and see where this takes us.

Save the date for this Nature Journaling event at the Botanical Gardens of Rome! (italian version below) Join us for an immersive Nature Journaling experience at the botanical garden, where art, science, and relaxation meet in a green and regenerating environment. During the event, we'll begin with a moment of mindful observation through drawing: we'll stroll among plants and flowers to slow down and connect with nature. A session suitable for everyone, even those with no experience: you'll learn to capture the shapes, details, and colors of plants through free and creative sketches. Alongside the artistic practice, there will be a brief botanical explanation that will guide you through the characteristics of the observed species: flower structure, plants, adaptations, and scientific curiosities explained in a simple and engaging way. We'll conclude the experience with a painting and origami activity inspired by the Japanese garden and cherry blossoms, where we'll transform paper into flowers and create Japanese-style postcards. A chance to slow down, learn, and be inspired by the beauty of the natural world. MATERIALS: All included EXCEPT the basic notebook. Workshop price: 15 (DISCOUNTED price - entrance ticket to Botanical Gardens not included) --- Unisciti a noi per un’esperienza immersiva di Nature Journaling all’orto botanico, dove arte, scienza e relax si incontrano in un ambiente verde e rigenerante. Durante l’evento, inizieremo con un momento di osservazione consapevole tramite il disegno: passeggeremo tra piante e fiori per rallentare il ritmo e connetterci con la natura. Una sessione adatta a tutti, anche a chi non ha esperienza: imparerai a catturare forme, dettagli e colori delle piante attraverso schizzi liberi e creativi. Accanto alla pratica artistica, ci sarà una breve spiegazione botanica che ti guiderà alla scoperta delle caratteristiche delle specie osservate: la struttura del fiore, piante, adattamenti e curiosità scientifiche raccontate in modo semplice e coinvolgente. Concluderemo l’esperienza con un’attività di pittura e di origami su ispirazione del giardino giapponese e dei ciliegi in fiore, in cui trasformeremo la carta in fiori e creeremo cartoline in stile nipponico. Un’occasione per rallentare, imparare e lasciarsi ispirare dalla bellezza del mondo naturale. MATERIALI: tutti inclusi TRANNE il taccuino di base. Prezzo del workshop: 15 (prezzo SCONTATO - NON include il biglietto di ingresso all'Orto Botanico)

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.

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.

The main entrance of the shopping center opens onto stairs/elevator leading up to the 2nd floor cafe section where we will have a table displaying a sign with the Shut Up & Write logo.

The cafe may be noisy on occasion so headphones/ earbuds are reccommended as you see fit. Please try to RSVP if possible so that we may grab enough seats for all—the venue can be busy at times. Feel free to message me privately wth any questions and/ or concerns you may have. Happy writing!

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
