Welkom in 2026 - Een hapje en drankje / Welcome in 2026 - Food and drinks
(English below / Engels onderaan)
🥳 We gaan afspreken, gewoon, voor de gezelligheid!
[update] Het is toch een beetje ongewoon. We hebben een echte koude ijzige sneeuwrijke winter!
Er is geen programma. Bepaal voor jezelf of je komt!
📅 Op 8 januari treffen we elkaar bij Danel Utrecht
👉🏿 Geen presentaties of programma. Laten we het een borrel noemen, maar voel je niet verplicht om alcohol te drinken. (En voor de duidelijkheid: consumpties voor eigen rekening. We hebben niks afgehuurd of iets dergelijks.) We komen samen met een groep gelijkgestemden en hebben de ruimte om lief en leed te delen. Starttijd 16:00 maar kom erbij wanneer het uitkomt: na je werk, na je avondeten, eet mee of niet, het maakt allemaal niet uit. We hebben de tijd!
🦠 Maskers zijn absoluut welkom. We hopen dat iedereen met COVID-gerelateerde klachten en/of een positieve test thuis wil blijven. Liever het zekere voor het onzekere.
🥂 Hopelijk tot snel! Ben je er niet bij en/of wil je mensen digitaal spreken? Kom bij ons [slack-kanaal](https://join.slack.com/t/idea11y/shared_invite/zt-8sp4de5x-i6RbV4GflD2uKHEszvb3nQ)!
(English/Engels)
🥳 We're going to meet up, because we can, for social reasons!
[update] Maybe we can't. We've got a real cold icey snowy winter!
There's no programm. Decide for yourself if you're coming!
📅 We'll meet on January the 8th at Danel in Utrecht.
👉🏿 No presentations or agenda. It's more of a cocktail party, but don't feel like you're required to drink alcohol. (And just to be clear: everything is at your own expense. We didn't rent a space or anything alike) We'll come together with a group of likeminded people and have the opportunity to share our ups and downs. You're welcome at 16:00, or but join whenever suits you: after work, after dinner, join for a meal or don't, it doesn't matter. We're flexible!
🦠 Masks are absolutely welcome. We hope that everybody with COVID-related symptoms and/or a positive test will stay home. Rather be safe than sorry!
🥂 Looking forward to meeting up soon! If you're not present and/or want to have some digital conversation: join our [slack-channel](https://join.slack.com/t/idea11y/shared_invite/zt-8sp4de5x-i6RbV4GflD2uKHEszvb3nQ)!
AWS User Group January Meetup
**+++ IMPORTANT: Because of the weather conditions, the meetup will only be remote today: [https://meet.google.com/unm-veco-dxh](https://meet.google.com/unm-veco-dxh) +++**
**Dear AWS users,**
our January event will happen soon!
Thanks to **Aclue** for providing us the space, drinks and food for this AWS User Group Meetup.
**Agenda & Talks**:
* 18:00 Warm-up
* 18:30 - 19:15 **No Lambda, No Problem**: Building Functionless Serverless Workflows by Vincent Martens, Principal Consultant, Aclue
* 19:30 - 20:15 **AWS re:Invent re:Cap** by Alexey Vidanov, Senior Consultant, Storm Reply
* 20:15 - 21:00 Wrap up & Networking
**No Lambda, No Problem: Building Functionless Serverless Workflows**
While serverless frees us from managing servers, we still have to take care of application code, dependencies, and integrations. So why not go all in on managed services and embrace service‑to‑service communication?
In this talk, we’ll explore how to build serverless workflows without any Lambda functions at all: which native cloud services you can combine, common integration patterns, and how to design “functionless” architectures. We’ll also look at the hard edges: where this approach breaks down, which trade‑offs you’re making in terms of vendor lock‑in, and when you really do need a function again.
**AWS re:Invent re:Cap**
AWS re:Invent once again delivered what everyone expects from the event: major announcements, fast keynotes, and a large volume of new services and features that are hard to process during the week itself.
This year also included something unexpected. Werner Vogels’ final keynote appearance gave the conference a different tone and emotional weight.
In this re:Cap session, we will quickly walk through the most relevant announcements from re:Invent, focus on what actually matters in practice, and share personal observations from the event, including why this re:Invent felt different from previous years.

Shut Up & Write! [Amsterdam/ IJburg]
Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at Factor-ij Amsterdam on Thursday mornings.
Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done.
SCHEDULE:
11: 15 AM - Quick introductions
11: 30 AM - Timer starts: write for 1 hour
12: 30 PM - The End: chat, take off, or keep writing
OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING happens at 12:30 pm after the writing is wrapped. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing.
BEING LATE IS OKAY: just show up and get settled, then check-in with me after the session. (I’ll be the person with the Shut Up & Write! sign.) If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
Happy writing and I look forward to seeing you at Factor-ij!
What Should I Bring?
Whatever you need to be able to write!
Bring earbuds/earplugs if you want to block the cafe’s overhead music or the occasional conversation by other patrons.
Please come with your devices pre-charged, since we probably won't be always sitting somewhere with charging possibilities.
Other Important Details:
Travel by public transportation:
1. Take Tram 26 from the central station Amsterdam, and step out by the last stop.
2. Take bus 66 from the Amsterdam Bijlmer station, step out by Pieter Oosterhuisstraat, and further walk in the direction of the bus till the corner.

Why and how to avoid “product discovery” activities without teams?
**There is an assumption in product development that there must be some form of product discovery and/or preparation before “work” goes to teams. Hence, the assumed need for product discovery vs delivery processes. E.g. double diamond discovery process and division between so-called product folks and engineering.**
**In this talk, I will show you why the double diamond and the related division between discovery and delivery is harmful, and with stories and practical advice give alternatives.**
Check google for the venue, make sure you chose the 1 right entrance:

Swimming lessons for adults | Beginners
If you are living in The Netherlands, by now, you may well have noticed the amount of open water. If you enjoy cycling in the city, you may wish to feel safer as you navigate the bridges and canals. And you may also want to get ready for visiting the beach, pools or the many lakes this summer.
Learning how to swim takes approx 1 year and it all starts with the very first lesson. New comers enroll via our website and pay € 30,50, this is the first lesson and a goody bag. After the class you agree with the personal swim coach how to continue to obtain your final objectives.
Enrolling is only possible via [www.your-personal-swim-coach.nl ](https://www.your-personal-swim-coach.nl/)hence a rvsp via meetup is not enough.

Tilburg Afternoon Trip + Train from Arnhem
Welcome to the event page for the city trip to Tilburg, held on Sunday January 11th, 2026. This event has a meetup at Arnhem Centraal (11:40) and Tilburg station (13:00), so you can easily join us from anywhere in the Netherlands. This is a social event open to everyone to meet new people in a friendly environment while exploring a city together!
***Summarized overview:***
11:40 Arnhem Station meetup, near Burger King
11:53 Departure Arnhem: 63 minute train ride
13:00 Tilburg Station meetup, near Starbucks\*
13:10 Group city walk
14:25 Choice: Free time or continue walk
With a coffee break at a café if there’s enough interest
17:00 End U&R event…
But at 17:00 the Sterrentocht starts from Willemsplein!
Sign up by RSVP on Meetup, OR via [Google Forms](https://forms.gle/C6JCCUH68X7QbQtV7).
Travel by your own OV-chipkaart.
Contribution: €3,- pp (to help maintain our Meetup page).
\**Train delays and cancellations could affect the meetup time in Tilburg. If this is the case, it will be announced in the discussion chat of this event page.*
***
**City walk, Free time & Sterrentocht**
This event consists partly of a group walk in the city center of Tilburg and partly of offering free time. The group walk is at a slow pace so you can connect with others, while enjoying the scenery of the city and taking photos along the way. In case of bad weather: bring an umbrella! After about 75 minutes, free time starts: we’ll check in if people like to continue our group walk or if there are other ideas to do in the city. For instance going to a museum, a café, do photography or anything else. If we continue our walk it will be at the same pace, we’ll go to new areas and if there’s enough interest we’ll go for a coffee in between. At 17:00 we’ll stop hosting the event, but on this day the Sterrentocht is organized in Tilburg, starting at 17:00 @Willemsplein. This is a real recommendation if you like light, arts and Dutch cultural events.
**Meetup in Arnhem & Tilburg**
This event has a meetup in Arnhem (11:40) and Tilburg (13:00), as described above. If you're joining us in Arnhem, you have to use your own OV-chipkaart. Tip: check [ns.nl/reisplanner](http://ns.nl/reisplanner) on the day itself to be in time at either meetup spot! For car users, I suggest checking the official municipality website to find parking spaces and what fares apply. U&R is originally based in Arnhem, but invites people from anywhere to join our travels.
**Sign-up: RSVP on Meetup or Google Forms**
Sign up for this event by RSVP here on Meetup or sign up via Forms: [https://forms.gle/C6JCCUH68X7QbQtV7](https://forms.gle/C6JCCUH68X7QbQtV7). Everyone is asked to pay a 3 euro contribution to help us maintain our costs on Meetup. This is refundable if U&R cancels the event or reschedules it to a different day, or if you cancel 72 hours before the meetup. Hope to see you in Tilburg!

### **What is an Outdoor Empowerment Group?**
Our Outdoor Movement & Community Empowerment Groups are simple, guided experiences designed to help people reconnect with nature, themselves, and others. We combine some form of movement (hike, walk, run, bike, yoga, workout) and meaningful conversation within a simple community circle to create a space where individuals can support each other while prioritizing mental and physical well-being.
Whether you’re seeking stress relief, personal growth, or community, our groups offer everyone a unique and welcoming environment.
## **Why Join?**
* **Improve Mental & Physical Well-Being** – Movement, nature, and supportive conversations reduce stress and promote balance.

* Has 5 extra hours per week to dedicate to a meaningful cause for at least one year. Yes, you can leave any organization at any time and we can also ask you to leave, but we are building with legacy in mind and we need people who can commit and be ALL IN on this mission to build with us.
