PCE Philosophic Conversation in English
PCE - "Philosophic Conversation in English" is a discussion event in English language which focuses on psychology, philosophy, self-consciousness and self-realization. The conversation is based on inclusive discussion rules. We will meet at at a restaurant where we will sit in the outdoor area.
At the beginning we will choose the two topics to discuss. Everybody can suggest a topic. Afterwards we will vote what topics to discuss. The person who suggests a winning topic will start the discussion by explaining his/her idea.
Afterwards everybody gets his/her chance to make a statement. But you can also decide to remain silent and only listen, if you prefer that. We have a time limit for statements, so that everybody has enough time to speak. It is not allowed to interrupt somebody who is speaking. After a statement everybody can ask a question and the speaker will answer.
After the first part there will be a 15 minutes break before we start the second part.
Everybody is welcome to our event: We are interested in your thoughts and opinions! It is no problem if you arrive late and you can also leave whenever you want.
Please don't bring pets to this event because the room is usually very crowded. Please make sure to register for the event to secure your seat!

The Portrait League – Paid Studio Sessions for Serious Hobby Photographers
## The Portrait League – Paid Studio Sessions for Serious Hobby Photographers
This is a structured portrait community — not a casual meetup.
The Portrait League is a recurring studio (location) gathering for photographers who want to improve their portrait and headshot work in a focused, constructive environment.
Each session will focus on a specific studio concept:
– Classic 1-light headshots
– Dramatic low-key portraits
– High-key commercial looks
– Editorial portrait setups
– Creative color lighting
Model included.
We don’t rush for quantity.
We work for quality.
The goal is simple:
Refine technique. Improve consistency. Develop a recognizable portrait style.
This is for photographers who:
• Want structured growth
• Value critique over ego
• Take their craft seriously
• Prefer collaboration over chaos
Spots are limited to maintain quality and productive energy.
Investment Today: €15
Duration: approx. 2–3 hours
If you want random shooting, this isn’t it.
If you want to level up your portrait game, join the league.

"living immutable: painless Java Records" + "Zero-Deps Java AI Business Agents"
Agenda:
18:00 Doors open
18:20 welcome - doors closing
18:30 "living immutable: working with Java Records the painless way" - Georgios Angelopoulos
\~ 19:00/19:15 break/networking
\~ 19:30/19:45 Zero-Dependency **Java 25+ AI Business Agents**: Running locally with zsmith and LightMetal - Adam Bien
**living immutable: working with Java Records the painless way**
Java Records are great for immutability, but updating deeply nested structures usually means dealing with a headache of nested constructors and endless *.withX()* chains.
This talk covers how to skip the boilerplate using Telescope, a lightweight Java library designed for painless deep updates. We will dive into:
* The ergonomic pain points of nested Java Records.
* Using Telescope's fluent DSL for surgical, zero-boilerplate updates
* Applying these same clean immutability patterns to legacy POJOs.
**About Georgios Angelopoulos**
I am a Lead Developer at Prewave with a background in Electrical and Computer Engineering. My experience and interests cover the entire computing spectrum, solving problems at every layer of the stack.
**Zero-Dependency Java 25+ Business Agents: Running locally with zsmith and LightMetal**
Modern Java provides all the functionality required for local LLM inference and agent orchestration, eliminating the need for external dependencies.
LightMetal directly binds Llama.cpp from Java using the **Foreign Function and Memory API (FFM)**, eliminating the need for JNI or native wrappers. It runs open models such as **Mistral, Gemma, and Llama** on your machine.
Zsmith is built on LightMetal and uses the Boundary-Control-Entity (BCE) model to structure agents. It loads tools and skills as ServiceLoader plugins and runs tool calls and streaming on Virtual Threads. Local inference and remote models work with the same agent code over the JDK's HttpClient.
Topics:
\- One\-line installation\, no build tools\, no package managers
\- FFM in practice: calling native libraries without JNI
\- Running Mistral\, Gemma and Llama locally in pure Java
\- ServiceLoader as a plugin mechanism for tools and skills
\- BCE applied to AI agents
\- Virtual Threads for streaming\, tool calls and parallel inference
\- Switching between local and remote models without changing the agent
\- Plain JDK: HttpClient\, records\, sealed types and pattern matching
\- Packaging agents as single\-file Java applications
Everything is demonstrated live with code. Your questions are highly welcome — the more, the better!

Austrian School of Economics Salon CVIII
Dear Austrians,
**Stephen DeMeulenaere**
Our next esteemed guest at the next Austrian Economics Salon will be Stephen DeMeulenaere. Stephen is widely regarded as a pioneer and one of the world's most knowledgeable authorities on complementary currencies, collaborative finance, and monetary diversity.
It is summer, so this will be a relaxed Salon starting already at 6pm c.t. It may open with a talk by Stephen or a brief interview, as an impulse for our subsequent Socratic Debate.
We meet, as usual, in the "Hayek Saal" at Vienna's Hayek Institute.
I look forward to a lively debate.
Yours,
Hubertus
Donauinsel Splash & Share: A Fun-Filled Picnic Fiesta
This is a **free** event.
Hello friends!
Meet us there at 14:00 with your favourite blanket and whatever you want to eat and drink. Also a bathing suit and towel in case you want to jump into the water and splash around.
We will be able to play badminton, volleyball and whatever else you want if you bring the necessary equipment. In addition, there may be music to make the atmosphere even more cheerful.
The event is non-profit, so bring anything you want to share with other participants.
We look forward to seeing you all for an afternoon of fun and good company on the Donauinsel!
We will be meeting at the pin on google maps and sitting close to there.
The Psychology and Personal Growth Circle: Thinking, Fast and Slow
Welcome to our cozy **The Psychology and Personal Growth Circle** which is part of the Social Book Club!
We will meet to discuss the book “**Thinking, Fast and Slow**" (499 pages) written by Daniel Kahneman.
The idea is to connect with like minded readers that love to grow and get to know themselves better through reading and especially applying knowledge from books.
We meet up once a month and talk about our progress applying knowledge from a certain book and our experience.
The event will take place at the volunteer organisation **MUT**.
It is an organisation to supports humans, animals and the environment especially in Vienna.
MUT or the Social Book Club look forward to some donation to cover the cost of this event.
If you would like to help, please bring some cash with you.
Book Description:
In the highly anticipated *Thinking, Fast and Slow*, Kahneman takes us on a groundbreaking tour of the mind and explains the two systems that drive the way we think. System 1 is fast, intuitive, and emotional; System 2 is slower, more deliberative, and more logical.
Kahneman exposes the extraordinary capabilities—and also the faults and biases—of fast thinking, and reveals the pervasive influence of intuitive impressions on our thoughts and behavior. The impact of loss aversion and overconfidence on corporate strategies, the difficulties of predicting what will make us happy in the future, the challenges of properly framing risks at work and at home, the profound effect of cognitive biases on everything from playing the stock market to planning the next vacation—each of these can be understood only by knowing how the two systems work together to shape our judgments and decisions.
If anyone would like to hang out **after** the book club discussion, you’re more than welcome to join us! We’ll be having a picnic and just relaxing afterward.
All the best
Andrea & Ani

What Rich Families Teach Their Kids About Money
Most families work hard for years yet still struggle financially because they were never taught the principles of building, protecting, and transferring wealth. While schools teach people how to earn money, very few teach how to make money grow, protect income, reduce financial stress, and create long-term stability for future generations.
In this exclusive Private Financial Blueprint Session, licensed financial professional Sandy Osei will walk attendees through practical financial concepts and strategies commonly used by financially successful families. This workshop is designed to help individuals and families better understand how money works and how to make smarter financial decisions in today’s economy.
During this live online session, participants will learn:
• The financial habits wealthy families teach their children early
• Common money mistakes that keep families financially stuck
• How to protect income and prepare for unexpected life events
• Strategies to begin building long-term wealth and financial security
• Ways to create more financial freedom, options, and stability for future generations
• Important financial concepts many people were never taught in school
This is not just another motivational webinar. The session is focused on education, real-life application, and actionable steps attendees can begin implementing immediately.
Because this is a private session, seating is limited and available by application only. The workshop is open to serious applicants located in the United States and Canada who are ready to improve their financial future and gain valuable financial knowledge.
Whether you are starting your financial journey, trying to break generational cycles, or looking for better strategies for your family’s future, this workshop was created to provide clarity, education, and empowerment.
Date: July 1st
Time: 7 PM EST
Location: Live on Zoom
