👋🏻 Hi everyone! I'm here with some exciting news. I'm launching a social project to connect people so we can grow together! ✨ The main idea: We meet in cozy spots with tasty food (different ones each time) to discuss interesting topics in English. Discussion topics: • Psychology • Philosophy • Relationships • Biology • History • Sociology • Science • Technology • Politics • Business • Finance 🗺️ How the meetups work: Stage 1. The Gathering. Usually at 5:00 PM in a park or city center. Stage 2. The Move. We walk together to a chosen cafe or restaurant. Stage 3. The Discussion. We pick a topic to kickstart the conversation. Stage 4. The Wrap-up. Around 8:00 PM, we start winding down and heading home. (Duration: \~3 hours) \* For those who are shy: In my experience, 80% of the tension and nervousness usually fades away within the first 15 minutes of conversation. 💌 Come join us!

En el marco del proyecto **WPCredits** y como parte del proceso de formación en contribución al ecosistema **open source**, se realizará un **Contributor Day** abierto a estudiantes y miembros de la comunidad interesados en participar activamente en el proyecto WordPress. Un Contributor Day es una jornada colaborativa donde personas con distintos perfiles —desarrolladores, diseñadores, traductores, creadores de contenido, docentes o usuarios— trabajan en conjunto para contribuir al proyecto WordPress en diferentes equipos de la comunidad. Durante esta actividad, las personas participantes recibirán orientación para integrarse a los equipos de contribución y realizar aportes reales al ecosistema, aprendiendo cómo funciona la colaboración en proyectos de software abierto y cómo formar parte de la comunidad global de WordPress. Esta jornada busca acercar a estudiantes y profesionales al modelo de trabajo del **open source**, fortalecer la comunidad local y generar una experiencia práctica de contribución dentro del programa **WPCredits**. **Mesas Presentes en el Contributor Online: Inicia a las 01:30pm, las mesas disponibles son: Foto, Traducciones y Core** **Enlace a la sala de bienvenida:** [https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/8f6ca1e8-a4c2-4192-8087-3a180ac50c5d@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59](https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/8f6ca1e8-a4c2-4192-8087-3a180ac50c5d@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59 "https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/8f6ca1e8-a4c2-4192-8087-3a180ac50c5d@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59") **Enlace a la sala de Foto:** [https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/1acb83c1-1733-4a29-b3c2-b7ce6ae56ebf@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59](https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/1acb83c1-1733-4a29-b3c2-b7ce6ae56ebf@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59 "https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/1acb83c1-1733-4a29-b3c2-b7ce6ae56ebf@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59") **Enlace a la sala de Traducciones:** [https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/e9b29d07-d5f5-46c7-942c-343f86b26262@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59](https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/e9b29d07-d5f5-46c7-942c-343f86b26262@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59 "https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/e9b29d07-d5f5-46c7-942c-343f86b26262@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59") **Enlace a la sala de Core:** [https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/4ca35694-f87a-46af-98fa-aa30243c2981@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59](https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/4ca35694-f87a-46af-98fa-aa30243c2981@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59 "https://events.teams.microsoft.com/event/4ca35694-f87a-46af-98fa-aa30243c2981@dde2fb8f-d8e0-445e-b851-e69c198c1e59") Día: 18 de Abril del 2026 Hora: 10:00am Lugar: Universidad Fidélitas, Sede Central
