Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10€, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, università Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille. Antonio

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! 😉

Wir können essen, trinken und sprechen. :-) Es gibt viel zu essen :-) Wenn Sie ein Getränk bestellen und vom Buffet essen, kostet es 13 Euro. :-)

N.B. per partecipare all'evento, occorre registrarsi al seguente link: [https://www.eventbrite.com/e/biglietti-lego-serious-play-opportunita-sfide-e-sviluppi-possibili-dellai-1985497534574](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/biglietti-lego-serious-play-opportunita-sfide-e-sviluppi-possibili-dellai-1985497534574) Un workshop pratico in Talent Garden Calabiana per dare forma all’innovazione L’intelligenza artificiale sta trasformando il nostro modo di lavorare, ma come possiamo comprenderla davvero, governarla e sfruttarla al massimo delle sue potenzialità? L'8 aprile in Talent Garden Calabiana ti invitiamo a un’esperienza immersiva guidata da **Andrea Romoli**, Facilitatore LEGO®️ SERIOUS PLAY ®️, con un workshop dove useremo le mani per pensare. ### Cos'è il LEGO® Serious Play®? È una metodologia di facilitazione internazionale nata per migliorare il pensiero critico e la risoluzione di problemi complessi. Invece di usare slide e grafici, utilizzeremo i famosi mattoncini LEGO per costruire **modelli tridimensionali** che rappresentano idee, processi e visioni. Le mani diventano il motore della mente: costruendo fisicamente, riusciamo a far emergere soluzioni e riflessioni che spesso restano nascoste nei processi logici tradizionali. Cosa faremo durante il workshop? Il workshop si svilupperà attraverso tre sfide di costruzione e condivisione: * **Sfida 1:** Analizzeremo le esperienze positive e i successi ottenuti grazie all’AI. Cosa sta già funzionando? * **Sfida 2:** Daremo forma alle criticità, ai dubbi etici e alle difficoltà tecniche incontrate lungo il percorso. * **Sfida 3:** Progetteremo insieme le potenziali innovazioni e gli sviluppi futuri che l'AI può offrire al nostro ecosistema. Ogni partecipante costruirà il proprio modello, lo descriverà al gruppo e parteciperà a una riflessione collettiva per mappare il futuro tecnologico che ci aspetta. **Perché partecipare?** Uscirai dal workshop con una visione più chiara, nuove connessioni professionali e la consapevolezza di come la tecnologia possa essere guidata dall'ingegno umano. Ti ricordiamo che l'evento è su prenotazione. Qualora non dovessi più partecipare, ti chiediamo cortesemente di procedere con la cancellazione della tua iscrizione per permettere ad altri di partecipare.

**PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING IMPORTANT NOTES:** 1. The dates listed for this series are about 95% reliable. We are completing our 2026 schedule as we speak, so minor adjustments are still occurring. 2. Each class in this series has an attendance fee, though this first offering is free on a first-come, first-served basis. 3. Each class, from BOTH a sign-up and fee perspective, is a separate entity. **Introduction:** HTML5 is the foundational technology for modern web development, serving as the standard markup language for structuring and presenting content on the World Wide Web. Developed through a collaboration between the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group (WHATWG), HTML5 provides a robust system of elements (tags) that tell a browser how to display text, images, and multimedia in a clear and meaningful way. It works in concert with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) for presentation and JavaScript for interactivity, forming the core technology stack for virtually all websites and many web applications today. One of the significant advancements of HTML5 is the introduction of powerful new features and elements designed to improve functionality and simplify development. Key additions include native multimedia support via the \ and \ tags, allowing developers to embed media without third-party plugins. It also offers new form controls for better user input, such as date and email types, and introduces web storage capabilities to store data offline for enhanced performance. These features streamline the process of building rich, interactive web experiences. A significant focus of HTML5 is enhanced semantics and better structural organization of content. New semantic elements like , , , , and \ provide meaningful structure to documents, which aids in search engine optimization (SEO) and improves accessibility for assistive technologies. These elements define different parts of a webpage (e.g., a header for the top, a nav for navigation links, a footer for the bottom), making the code more readable and understandable for both developers and machines. This emphasis on clear structure helps in creating more logical and maintainable websites. Developing websites in today's competitive environment requires taking advantage of every technique you can to get the maximum exposure possible. Our HTML5 class will not only show you what's new in the HTML specification, but also the best way to develop optimized web pages that get the attention your client and/or company requires. **The breakdown of the four-class series is as follows:** **Class 1: Introduction to Web Structure and Basic HTML5** This class introduces the core concepts of web development, the history of HTML, and the fundamental structure of an HTML5 document. * **Topics**: * **Web Architecture Overview**: How browsers, servers, and web pages interact. * **HTML Fundamentals**: Understanding elements, tags, and attributes. * **Basic Document Structure**: Using !DOCTYPE html, html, head, and body. * **Text Formatting**: Headings (h1 to h6), paragraphs (p), and text-level semantics (e.g., strong, em, br). * **Lists and Links**: Creating ordered (ol) and unordered (ul) lists, and linking between pages using anchor tags (a). * **Activity**: Students create a basic personal webpage containing text, a list of hobbies, and a link to an external website. **Class 2: Semantic HTML5 and Multimedia Integration** Class 2 focuses on modern HTML5 elements that provide meaning (semantics) to content, improving accessibility and search engine optimization. It also covers adding images and multimedia. * **Topics**: * **Semantic Elements**: Understanding and implementing elements like header, footer, nav, section, and article. * **Images**: Adding images using the img tag and attributes like src, alt, width, and height. * **Multimedia**: Embedding audio and video content using the audio and video tags. * **File and Folder Structure**: Best practices for organizing project files and managing file paths. * **Activity**: Students refactor their Class 1 project to use a proper semantic layout and add an image and a link to a video file. **Class 3: Forms and User Input** This session is dedicated to building interactive HTML5 forms, which are essential for capturing user data and input. * **Topics**: * **Form Basics**: Using the form element, action and method attributes. * **Input Types**: Exploring various input types (e.g., text, password, checkbox, radio, date, submit). * **Form Elements**: Utilizing label, textarea, select, option, and button. * **Client-side Validation**: Implementing HTML5 validation attributes like required, minlength, and pattern. * **Activity**: Students build a complete contact form with different input fields, radio buttons, and basic HTML5 validation. **Class 4: Introduction to CSS3 and Basic Styling** The final class introduces Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) to style the HTML content and make the web pages visually appealing and accessible. * **Topics**: * **CSS Fundamentals**: The role of CSS, selectors, properties, and values. * **Integrating CSS**: Using inline, internal, and external style sheets. * **The Box Model**: Understanding margin, padding, border, and content for basic layout. * **Basic Styling**: Changing colors, fonts, and text alignment. * **Accessibility Basics**: Identifying principles of web design usability and accessibility, including ARIA labels. * **Activity**: Students apply an external CSS file to their Class 3 form project to style the layout, colors, and fonts, culminating in a well-structured and styled webpage.

**PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING IMPORTANT NOTES:** 1. The dates listed for this series are about 95% reliable. We are completing our 2026 schedule as we speak, so minor adjustments are still occurring. 2. Each class in this series has an attendance fee, though this first offering is free on a first-come, first-served basis. 3. Each class, from BOTH a sign-up and fee perspective, is a separate entity. **Introduction:** HTML5 is the foundational technology for modern web development, serving as the standard markup language for structuring and presenting content on the World Wide Web. Developed through a collaboration between the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group (WHATWG), HTML5 provides a robust system of elements (tags) that tell a browser how to display text, images, and multimedia in a clear and meaningful way. It works in concert with Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) for presentation and JavaScript for interactivity, forming the core technology stack for virtually all websites and many web applications today. One of the significant advancements of HTML5 is the introduction of powerful new features and elements designed to improve functionality and simplify development. Key additions include native multimedia support via the \ and \ tags, allowing developers to embed media without third-party plugins. It also offers new form controls for better user input, such as date and email types, and introduces web storage capabilities to store data offline for enhanced performance. These features streamline the process of building rich, interactive web experiences. A significant focus of HTML5 is enhanced semantics and better structural organization of content. New semantic elements like , , , , and \ provide meaningful structure to documents, which aids in search engine optimization (SEO) and improves accessibility for assistive technologies. These elements define different parts of a webpage (e.g., a header for the top, a nav for navigation links, a footer for the bottom), making the code more readable and understandable for both developers and machines. This emphasis on clear structure helps in creating more logical and maintainable websites. Developing websites in today's competitive environment requires taking advantage of every technique you can to get the maximum exposure possible.
