Dear All,

We are getting ready for the 8. SaarPython Meetup.

**Send us your talk proposals as soon as possible. Preferably, lightning talks with a length of 10-15 minutes (incl. short Q&A).**

Thanks again to natif.ai GmbH for hosting the event.

Refreshments and snacks will be provided during the event. The capacity of the venue is limited, so make sure to RSVP early enough and to un-RSVP if you can't make it to the event.

Let's meet for another round of interesting Python talks!

Yves

The program will be announced soon.

**Talk 1:**
Jonas Langhabel
***Navigating the Evolution of Python 3: From Syntax to CPython Internals***

Abstract:
This talk provides an exploration of the latest versions of Python 3, highlighting the key changes in the language's syntax and features over time. We'll dive into the under-the-hood enhancements in CPython, Python's default interpreter, discussing optimizations and new functionalities. The presentation will also cover the risks and benefits associated with upgrading to newer versions. By the end, attendees will gain a comprehensive understanding of Python 3's development journey and how to make informed decisions about upgrading their projects.

**Talk 2:**
Yves Hilpisch
***Mathematics and Large Language Models (LLMs)***

Abstract:
Mathematics is at the core of any scientific and engineering discipline, such as computer science and software engineering. This talk analyzes how far LLMs have come in solving pure and applied mathematical problems. It also addresses more general aspects of "doing mathematics" with LLMs.

**Talk 3:**
Manuel Zapp
***Deep Entity Matching Mastery: Unleashing Triplet Loss and the Attention Mechanism in Python***

Abstract:
Join us in this Python meetup as we delve into the fascinating world of semantic entity matching, focusing on the challenging task of address matching. Traditional approaches like Levenshtein distance have their limits, and we're here to showcase a cutting-edge solution. In this session, we'll guide you through the implementation of a fast and efficient address matching system using triplet loss and attention-based networks with Keras. Learn how these advanced techniques can revolutionize your approach to entity matching.

**Talk 4:**
Christian Kofler
***Coding is Agile: What Effective Teams Can Learn from Python.***

Abstract:
Discover how Python embodies agile values and applies lean principles to make it intuitive and flexible. This lightning talk explores what iterators, generators and good old duck typing can teach us about project management and growing a startup. Join in and find out what agile teams can learn from Python.

**Talk 5:**
Alexander Arimond
***Domain Driven Design***

Abstract:
Greenfield software projects always start promising, but after some time they often tend to evolve into so-called „Big-Ball-of-Muds“: complex systems, costly to enhance and maintain. Domain Driven Design (DDD) is an approach for developers and domain experts to enhance communication and effectively manage the construction of maintainable software systems. Find out in this lightning talk about important concepts and patterns of DDD.
