Cowork - ja sinä voit keskittyä olennaiseen
Tässä sessiossa katsotaan, mitä Copilot Cowork oikeasti tekee ja miltä sen käyttö näyttää arjen tilanteissa. Vedetään läpi muutama demo, joissa Cowork hoitaa rutiinit ja valmistelut taustalla, jotta käyttäjä voi keskittyä siihen mikä oikeasti vie työtä eteenpäin. Samalla jutellaan myös siitä, missä EU‑regulaation kanssa tällä hetkellä mennään ja mitä se tarkoittaa Coworkin käytölle nyt ja lähitulevaisuudessa.

In-person gathering
You are warmly welcomed to another in-person gathering of the Return community.
During this event we'll create an open, free and safe space for meeting up with the people of the community and sharing what the heart desires to share.
There's no strict agenda on what this event will hold. The soft intention here is to return to the mystery and see what arises from the present moment we create together.
I'm looking forward to seeing you in-person at Bokvillan and returning to the mystery ✨

No phones, no chatting during the writing time — just a simple way to create momentum while being in the company of others. If you are noise sensitive, bring earplugs/headphones etc..
There’s no pressure to share your work unless you feel like it — you’re always welcome to keep things private.
All kinds of writing are welcome:
– Creative writing
– Poetry
– Journaling
– Essays or academic work
– Anything else
Any language is welcome too.
After the session, you’re welcome to stay, chat, and hang out for as long as you like.

Sahaja Yoga meditation course in English
Welcome to join our Sahaja Yoga meditation meetings in English! The meetings are free of charge and you can just show up. The group consists of people of different ages and nationalities who have been meditating different periods of time. Newcomers are welcome at any time. We normally sit on chairs or on pillows on the floor, so there is no need to bring a mat and you can wear normal clothes.
Meditation means mental silence or thoughtless awareness. You are present here and now, but your mind is not bombarded by thoughts from the past or the future. In this state, you feel peace and joy, which are the essential elements of the present moment. With regular practice of meditation, it is possible to establish this state within us.
The group is lead by volunteers who are experienced and can offer guidance to get you started. We give a short introduction to the meditation and after that we do meditation exercises. We also give tips on how to meditate at home. After the meditation class, we have a cup of tea and there is time for questions.
Welcome! We hope to see you in our meditation meetings!

* 21:00 Let's start moving to a nearby bar to continue Python discussions 🍻
**Talks**
*Janne Mäntylä: Engineering a Quantum Future: 0 to 1 in Full-Stack Superconducting Quantum Computers*
Quantum computers promise to improve solutions to problems classical machines struggle with, from simulating molecular interactions to optimisation in logistics and finance. But how do you actually build one? This talk covers the fundamentals and use cases, IQM's full-stack superconducting approach from cryogenics to quantum operating system, and an honest look at where the technology stands today and the challenges ahead.
*Julia Ripatti: Introduction to quantum computing and practical applications of variational quantum algorithms*
Quantum computers can potentially solve certain computational problems beyond the reach of classical computers. This talk provides an accessible introduction to the fundamentals of quantum computing, including qubits, quantum gates, and quantum circuits. The talk focuses on Variational Quantum Algorithms (VQAs), a leading approach for near-term quantum computers that combine quantum and classical computational techniques. Through practical examples in optimization and machine learning, attendees will gain insights on how VQAs are applied to real-world problems.
*Per Liebermann: Asynchronous Programming in Quantum Hardware Orchestration*
Leveraging our hardware streaming capabilities and the concurrent nature of execution with the help of Python's async to limit idle time on the quantum processing unit.
Vibe Coding Finland: June meetup with Elisa
Welcome to our June meetup in Helsinki, arranged together with Elisa (https://elisa.fi/).
Schedule:
17:00 Doors open!
17:30 Welcome words by organizers and Elisa
17:40 **"Build before specifying", Kristofer Pasanen, Development Manager/Product Owner, Elisa**
What changes when a PO builds before specifying? Better stakeholder conversations. Real artifacts for real decisions. Sometimes the roles blur – sometimes it becomes obvious why every role is still needed. Notes from a year of building for myself and at Elisa.
\*5 min break\*
18:15 **"Bringing Context, Orchestration and AI Agents to the SDLC by Graham & Akseli from Kaiku"**
With AI in delivery projects, we consistently see the same pattern: every engineer has their own rules, their own prompts, their own way of working — and nothing is shared. Context lives in people's heads, local systems, or scattered across repositories.
At Kaiku we've been tackling this from the inside - bringing shared context, structured skills, and orchestrated agents across our whole company. In this session, Graham & Akseli will walk through how Kaiku has approached this, how we've evolved and where we're aiming next.
* Why context is the real bottleneck in AI-assisted development and why solving it at the individual level doesn't scale.
* Building a shared knowledge layer: encoding expertise into skills, rules, and workflows that agents and humans pull from the same source.
* What it looks like in practice when POs and engineers are all working with the same AI context across their tools and agents.
* Orchestrating agents across the delivery lifecycle: what's worked, what we've learnt, and what we're still figuring out.
Akseli Manninen is a senior data scientist at Kaiku and Graham Daw is one of the founders.
\*5 min break\*
18:50 **"How an AI-native marketing agency actually uses AI**
**Built AI-native from day one", Valtteri Taube, co-founder, OstraconAI**
Valtteri Taube shares how the agency operates — and what it means to run marketing in an AI-first way. One example: the Claude Skills the team uses in its own marketing
19:30 Mingling / free discussion etc
20:00 Doors close

Restorative Forest Experience - Seurasaari
Discover the restorative power of nature on a guided forest walk on the
island of Seurasaari. Through calm observation and gentle connection
with the forest atmosphere, slow down, unwind, and sharpen your
senses.
**IMPORTANT**: Spots are limited, please make sure to reserve yours! If you are not registered, you will be kindly asked to leave.
Step out of everyday busyness and into a more present, embodied
experience of nature. Practice selected ForestMind exercises and
include optional moments of shared reflection in a safe, supportive
space.
These gentle exercises invite you to open your senses, cultivate a
feeling of calm and refreshment, and practice being fully present in the
moment. Some invitations focus on noticing and kindly accepting your
own thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations.
The method, developed in Finland by Mrs. Sirpa Arvonen, combines
researched nature-based health effects with simple mind-skill practices
and is suitable for everyone, regardless of age, fitness level, or previous
experience. Leave the forest feeling grounded, refreshed, and more
connected to yourself and your surroundings.
**Program details:**
*WHEN:* Thursday 11th of June, starting at 14.30 and ending around 17.30
*LOCATION:* Seurasaari Island – about 3,5 Km on designated forest trails
(easy access, paths available).
*MEETING POINT:* I will meet you just before the white bridge in Seurasaari,
(you will see the bridge when you get off from the bus).
*AGE:* over 18yo
***PLEASE NOTE***: the activity will take place with sun or rain. Participants bring
comfortable shoes/clothing, weatherproof clothing, water bottle, and an
open mind. No extra equipment required.
*COSTS:* free. The participants pay own bus ticket to and from Seurasaari

Full Circle
Full Circle is a community of practice where mental health and wellbeing professionals come together to learn, share, and grow.
If you’re a mental health or wellbeing practitioner who thrives on shared wisdom and community, Full Circle offers a space where you can connect, grow, and bring fresh insights back into your client work.
**Full Circle is for professionals who work with clients in mental health or wellbeing** (e.g. psychotherapists, counsellors, art therapists, coaches, and others integrating mind–body approaches) .
A community of practice is a space where we come together as professionals to share our experiences, challenges, and insights, not to be taught, but to learn from each other.
Full Circle is about connection, not workshops. It’s a circle of peers, not a classroom.
**By registering for this event, you agree to stand by our shared principles:**
* Confidentiality: What is shared in the circle stays in the circle.
* Presence: We give our full attention to each other, listening deeply.
* Respect: Every voice matters; we value different perspectives and approaches.
* Curiosity: We come to explore, not to give definitive answers.
* Contribution: Everyone is encouraged to share practices, cases, and reflections.
* Commitment: We show up consistently, knowing the community grows through regular participation.
**How our gatherings work**:
We gather **once a month** in person, and every time we move through the same process:
* *Check-in*: We begin by going around the circle, with each person sharing what’s present for them in the moment.
* *Shared practice*: One member of the community leads the group through a method, exercise, or embodied practice from their own field. Everyone experiences it first-hand.
* *Integration dialogue*: Together, we explore what the practice brought up and how it might be woven into our client work.
* *Check-out*: Each person shares one insight they will carry with them.
What is a Friend?
Friendship is one of the most important parts of human life. We seek friends, rely on them, celebrate with them, and mourn their loss. Yet the nature of friendship is surprisingly difficult to define.
What makes someone a friend rather than merely an acquaintance? Is friendship based on affection, trust, shared experiences, mutual support, common values, or something else? Can friendships survive profound disagreements? Do we owe our friends special loyalty, and if so, why?
This meetup will explore questions such as:
* What is a friend?
* Why do human beings seek friendship?
* What makes a friendship genuine?
* Are some friendships better than others?
* Can friendship exist without reciprocity?
* What causes friendships to grow, fade, or end?
No prior knowledge of philosophy is required. Bring your curiosity, experiences, and questions as we investigate one of the oldest and most enduring topics in philosophy.

**Description:**
AI split AppSec into two attack surfaces: your code, and the code factory that produces it—coding agents, the models and MCP tools they call, the developer environment itself. With exploits now landing in under ten hours and vulnerabilities shipping from more authors than ever, this talk lays out a staged path to a "Mythos-ready" program—reprioritizing around reachable risk, accelerating remediation, and securing the AI-SDLC—and argues security should stop filing tickets and start shipping fixes.

Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code*
Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs.
In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling.
The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options.
