In this talk, we’ll explore how Jakarta EE and MicroProfile provide the perfect foundation for AI-assisted and even autonomous application development. Drawing on practical experiments developing applications with the help of AI, I’ll demonstrate how modern AI-enhanced development tools can understand and generate Jakarta EE applications more effectively than ad-hoc or framework-specific codebases. Producing up-to-date code that works together much better than if assembled from various libraries or frameworks. We’ll also discuss the role of open standards in making application behavior predictable for AI, improving maintainability, testability, and avoiding vendor lock-in. You’ll leave with a clear picture of how enterprise Java can thrive in an AI-assisted future – and how your team can start leveraging AI tools today to boost productivity while staying grounded in proven architectures. *About Ondro Mihalyi* [Ondro Mihalyi](https://www.linkedin.com/in/mihalyiondrej/) is a Java Champion, leader of [CZJUG](https://jug.cz/), the Czech Java User Group, and a conference speaker. He is an active contributor to the Jakarta EE community and its specifications. He co-founded OmniFish, the company behind the development of Eclipse GlassFish, which builds open-source products based on Jakarta EE, and provides enterprise support for them. Ondro is passionate about helping his clients and the wider Java community to be successful with their projects and to love the technology they work with.

**Walk & Talk** Willst du auch mehr Bewegung in dein Leben bringen? Und dich dabei noch gut unterhalten, so dass die Zeit verfliegt? Dann bist du hier genau richtig, denn mir geht es genauso. Alleine ist langweilig und die Zeit vergeht nicht, daher hab ich mir Walk & Talk überlegt. Inspiriert wurde ich durch die Walk & Talk Gruppe in Hamburg, wo ich mehrere Male dabei war als ich in Hamburg lebte. Unterschiedliche Menschen treffen sich einmal in der Woche für einen flotten Spaziergang und unterhalten sich dabei. Ich liebe es neue Menschen kennenzulernen und auch bekannte Gesichter wiederzusehen, dann geh ich ganz nebenbei und das macht auch noch Spaß.😊 **Walk:** Wir brauchen einfach regelmäßige Bewegung und ich weiß selbst, wie schwierig es ist, diese in den Alltag zu integrieren. Deshalb ist dieser Walk genau richtig. Nach diesem Spaziergang fühlst du dich einfach wohl, fit und entspannt. **Talk:** Das Reden kommt ganz von selbst beim Gehen. Du kannst über alles reden, egal, ob privates oder berufliches, alles was sich ergibt ist willkommen. Und wenn du keinen Bock aufs Reden hast, dann gehst du alleine, auch das ist völlig in Ordnung. **Wie das ganze abläuft:** * Die Teilnahme ist völlig kostenlos. * Wo: U6 Spittelau (im Freien), Richtung Donaukanal, Ausgang Josef-Holaubek-Platz, direkt vor dem Fernwärme-Turm (https://maps.app.goo.gl/XwAayz4FQe2EW8WK9) * Wann: Wir treffen uns dienstags um 13 Uhr, egal, ob bei Regen, Sturm und Kälte oder bestem Sonnenschein – Walk & Talk findet nahezu JEDE Woche statt außer ich bin mal im Urlaub. * Wir starten pünktlich und beginnen mit einer kurzen Vorstellungsrunde. * Wie gehen am Donaukanal entlang von Höhe Spittelau bis zum Schwedenplatz und zurück. * Ca. 7 Kilometer sind wir unterwegs und unterhalten uns dabei mit interessanten Menschen. Dabei kannst du neue Bekanntschaften schließen, dich inspirieren lassen, von Projekten erzählen oder einfach nur smalltalken und die frische Luft genießen. Alles ist erlaubt. * Nach ca. 1,75 Stunden sind wir wieder am Ausgangspunkt zurück. * Bei einer Teilnahme von über 5 Personen gehen wir in Paaren und wechseln diese alle 10 Min. Wenn du aber lieber alleine gehst, ist das auch vollkommen in Ordnung. * Für alle, die einfach mal etwas Neues ausprobieren wollen. **Bist du bereit?** Dann komm mit! **Start bei U6 Spittelau Ausgang Donaukanal** Nochmal: um **PUNKT 13.00 Uhr dort sein**, denn **nach kurzen Vorstellungsrunde gehen wir gleich los. Sei pünktlich, denn die Gruppe wartet nicht.** Du musst nichts vorbereiten oder dich gar anmelden, komm einfach vorbei. Ausreden gibt es nicht. Geh mit und freu dich auf eine tolle neue Erfahrung. **Wer macht es?** This week's event will be hosted by Sridhar (Srinivasan) one of our regulars, who is rediscovering the joy of being in nature and in community. He enjoys the stimulating interactions that arise from new connections while walking, and hopes that others also find their spark and are moved to flow, that eventually fulfills them. **Do you speak English? Then welcome to Walk & Talk!** This event is suited for all people who like to connect to other people and like to walk. The beauty of this regular event is that you are in the nature and you walk around 7 kilometers. In the meantime, if you feel for it, you talk, if not, you just walk. You do something for your health, get to know new people and you will feel much better. It’s FREE, all you need to do is to show up this Tuesday at no later than 1 pm at the U6 Spittelau exit to Donaukanal.

A huge thanks to Magenta and especially to Georg for getting this approved so quickly! Find the exact address in the location section. The rest remains unchanged: **same date, same time, same schedule**. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 🥳 And now for the amazing news that probably everybody has been hoping for: 🦞 **The Clawfather is joining us!** The Clawfather himself, **Peter Steinberger**, will greet the Vienna OpenClaw community from SF via **live stream**.

Once again, we'll be hosted by **Magenta Telekom** at their HQ on Rennweg 97-99. **This one is going to be different.** If you've been following what's happening in the OpenClaw community, you know the energy is through the roof. The recent OpenClaw Vienna Meetup organized by **Peter Steinberger** was an absolute blast, and we knew immediately: we need to bring this energy to our next meetup. So here's the plan: **we're doing lightning talks.** Short, punchy, **7-minute** demos and mini talks - no death by PowerPoint, just builders showing what they've built. The topics: **OpenClaw** and **coding with OpenAI Codex**. Whether you've wired up an OpenClaw agent to automate your entire deployment pipeline, built something weird and wonderful with Codex, or found a creative way to combine the two — we want to hear about it. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- 📢 **Call for Lightning Talks — We Want YOU on Stage!** This is the heart of the event.

**KI, Kognition und Burnout: Was tun, wenn Effizienz den Flow killt?** KI impliziert die Hoffnung, sich - von langweiligen Tätigkeiten befreit - endlich kreativen und spannenden Dingen widmen zu können. Jedoch häufen sich Sorgen um mögliche Nebenwirkungen: Begriffe wie **KI Burnout**, **KI Fatigue** und **KI Workslop** sprießen nur so aus Studien und Social Media Posts. In diesem Talk geht es um Zusammenhänge zwischen Burnout, Cognitive Load, Flow und den Einsatz von KI Tools - und um mögliche Lösungsansätze. **Sabine Ballata** ist Co-Founderin von Kokoro ([www.bekokoro.com](http://www.bekokoro.com/)), wo sie Produktdesign und Strategie leitet.

## [GET TICKETS HERE!!!](https://www.eventbrite.at/e/99-easy-steps-to-austrian-integration-terence-hartnett-live-thecomedypub-tickets-1983481860639?aff=MeetUp) A fast-paced English comedy show about surviving — and loving — life in Austria. ## An American’s Guide to Becoming Austrian (In Only 99 Easy Steps) Two years ago, NYC comedian **Terence Hartnett** moved to Vienna for love. Now, after navigating bureaucracy, Kaffeehaus culture, German grammar traps, recycling rules, and the mysterious emotional rhythm of Austrian friendliness, he’s ready to present his definitive — and completely foolproof — 99-step integration plan. This is English-language Kabarett meets sharp stand-up comedy — rapid-fire, intelligent, self-aware, and deeply relatable for anyone who has ever felt like an outsider in a new country. ## What the Show Explores * ☕ **How to Order at a Viennese Kaffeehaus** (The service is half as attentive as in America… but so is the expected tip.) * 🚋 **How to Master Public Transport** (If it looks free, it probably isn’t.) * 📚 **A1 German Confusion** (“Wer ist die toilette?” does NOT mean what you think it means.) * ❄️ **Austrian (Un)Friendliness** Austrians aren’t unfriendly — they just take three years to decide if they like you. * ♻️ **Recycling** Enough said. Through rapid punchlines, sharp cultural comparisons, and heartfelt storytelling, Hartnett examines the small daily moments where cultures collide — and where humor saves us. ## Cultural Relativity, Explained Through Laughter Kurt Vonnegut once wrote: *“Cultural relativity is defensible, attractive. It's a source of hope.”* As an outsider, Hartnett looks at Austrian culture with curiosity instead of criticism. What seems strange through American eyes becomes funny, thoughtful, and sometimes even beautiful. There is a lot to love. A little to resent. And so much to laugh about. Through gentle teasing and sharp self-deprecation, **everyone becomes the punchline — including the comedian himself.** ## Who This Show Is For ✔ Expats navigating Austrian life ✔ Austrians curious how they look from the outside ✔ English-speaking comedy lovers in Vienna ✔ Anyone who has ever lived abroad ✔ Fans of smart, cultural, observational stand-up If you’ve ever struggled with integration, paperwork, language, or just figuring out where to stand on an escalator — this show is for you. ## About Terence Hartnett Terence Hartnett is a New York City comedian known for blending personal storytelling with sharp cultural observations. His work bridges continents with humor that is intelligent, warm, and quietly philosophical — without ever losing the punchlines. ## Why You Should Come Because integration is hard. Because Austria is confusing. Because cultural differences are funny. Because laughter makes everything easier. **99 Easy Steps to Austrian Integration** is a love letter to Austria — written in jokes. Seats are limited. Arrive early, grab a drink, and get ready to laugh at the beautiful absurdity of living between cultures. #TerenceHartnett #99EasySteps #EnglishComedyVienna #ExpatComedy #ComedyInVienna #StandUpVienna #IntegrationComedy #AmericanInAustria #ViennaComedy #KabarettEnglish #LiveComedyVienna #CulturalComedy #TheComedyPub #ViennaEvents #ThingsToDoInVienna

Please promptly end your games and clear out the space at 10pm when the bar closes. We encourage socializing but do not permit disruptive behavior of any kind. Thank you for your continued commitment to providing a fun and welcoming space to veteran, newbie, and rookie gamers in the Columbus area. Parking can be challenging. There is a parking lot behind the neighboring Mexican restaurant that is free and easy to walk from but it's a bit hidden.
