Building Datahub, the open-source metadata catalog. Previously led the data-engineering team at Prezi and worked on a platform to fulfill all of the analytical needs at scale. Tamas is also a committer in the Apache Gobblin project. Abstract: Traditional catalogs are no longer sufficient for today’s complex, decentralized landscapes. This session explores their transformation into Metadata Control Planes, the operational “central nervous system” for enterprise information. As AI agents replace humans as primary consumers, this infrastructure becomes the critical bedrock for Context Engineering. Unlike people, these autonomous systems act directly on the information they find without seeking clarification; they require authoritative context to avoid “confident but wrong” outcomes. We will demonstrate how to repurpose your existing lineage, quality signals, and business glossaries to provide the provenance and semantic clarity these models crave. Discover how to evolve a passive inventory into a high-performance engine for reliable, enterprise-grade AI. **Drug discovery with AI: Targeting G-protein coupled receptors with GPU-accelerated screening** Abstract: GPCRs are an important but difficult drug target. The receptor we are focusing on, called Mas, has an important role in regulating the cardiovascular system and muscle growth. A natural compound that activates Mas is in phase 3 trials for treating old-age muscle loss (sarcopenia). As it's based on a plant extract, only a limited supply can be produced. The search is on for a highly efficient, safe, synthetic alternative! Join us to learn more about our GPU-accelerated solution for scoring billions of potential drug molecules with a variety of models. \*\*[Daniel Darabos ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/darabos/)\*\*is the CTO of **[LynxKite](https://www.linkedin.com/company/lynxkite/)**.

In this session, we dive into Pranayama, (an ancient practice to discover the flow of energy within) and the power of conscious breathing, which is one of the most important aspects of the original yogic lifestyle. On these Tuesday evenings, we do more than just a breathwork session: this is an opportunity to explore a true harmony between our breath & the mind - body connection. We begin with a 15-minute chest-opening yoga sequence to gently expand our lungs and prepare for deeper breathing (no need for gym clothes though, just an open mind). Then, we explore different breathing techniques designed for self-awareness, relaxation, and energy flow. These classes are designed to help you discover how breath can be a tool to balance, energize, and center yourself. To close, we immerse in a short yet profound "silent concert", a meditative sound journey where 174 Hz sound waves or white noise guide us into a state of deep harmony. Whether emotions are light or heavy, thoughts are clear or clouded, this is a space to simply be and find some peace.

“Resentment is like drinking poison and then hoping it will kill your enemies.” ― Nelson Mandela **(In english!)** Throughout history, human societies have wrestled with division. When identity hardens into polarization, coexistence becomes fragile. Differences can escalate into civil conflict, deepening distrust and resentment that often persist for generations. Yet history also offers rare examples of a different path: moments when cycles of hatred did not spiral into further violence, but instead turned toward reconciliation. In this session we will explore **Ubuntu** — the African ethical philosophy that shaped the moral framework of leaders such as Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu. Ubuntu — “I am because we are” — proposes that identity is not purely individual but relational. Even those we oppose remain part of our shared collective. This insight may be the hidden condition behind successful reconciliations. Beyond South Africa’s transition from apartheid, we can examine other cases of reconciliation: the American post–Civil War, the reconciliation between France and Germany, Japan’s postwar transformation, and the peace process in Northern Ireland. **Introduction of guests (15 minutes)** We start with a short introduction of the guests. **Kérdések (1 óra 45 perc)** 1. According to Ubuntu why is hope better than optimism? 2. Are we living in a time of self-respect? 3. Can Ubuntu be applied to someone who opposes Ubuntu? 4. What happens when “we” includes people who reject your values? 5. How does Ubuntu work when conflict is on-going? 6. Can the strength of the collective sometimes go the wrong direction? How to avoid that? 7. Have you put yourself in the shoes of someone you deeply reject? 8. How can we compare the european reconciliation with the South African or North-Irish reconciliations? 9. What is more important for reconciliation: leadership or strong institutions? 10. Can forgiveness be compatible with justice all the time? Is there a point where forgiveness becomes injustice? 11. Why is truth so important in reconciliation? 12. Can reconciliation hold when material inequality persists? 13. Can ubuntu help to undo polarization? 14. How can we apply ubuntu to social media? 15. Is ubuntu a way of individual-to-social maturity? 16. Is polarization a symptom of moral seriousness — or moral immaturity? 17. Is polarization driven more by inequality or by identity? **RSVP:** Please confirm your attendance here on Meetup to save your space and if you cannot assist, yield your space to another person in the waiting list.

Join us for the new session of our discussion series **“A Night With…”**, where we dive into timeless myths and their universal messages. Following our last session, where we explored the duality of Apollinian & Dionysiac, this the time to delve into the journey of Orhpeus. **What to expect:** * I will open the meetup with a short introduction to Orpheus’ myth and share (or suggest) a few possible interpretations and connections. * After that, the floor is yours! Bring your thoughts, reflections, and any links you see between this myth and other domains, e.g. literature, art, philosophy, psychology, history or even your own creative work. * If you’re an artist and your work resonates with the divine twins' story, feel free to share it with the group. **Before the event:** Take 5 minutes to read the quick snippet of Orpheus’ myth (provided below👇🏽) and think of: * A book, artwork, or personal reflection that relates to her story. * Any modern parallels or insights you’d like to discuss. This is a space for **open dialogue, creativity, and shared exploration**. ### **🫧The story of Orpheus in Brief** **🎼Orpheus is the legendary poet–musician** of Greek myth, famous for playing the lyre so beautifully that animals, trees, and even stones were said to be **moved by his song.** He marries Eurydice, a nymph (or mortal woman in some versions), and their happiness is brief: Eurydice dies suddenly, most commonly after being bitten by a snake while fleeing danger or wandering in the fields. Stricken with grief, Orpheus refuses to accept her death. **He descends alive into the Underworld to bring her back.** There, his music softens the hearts of the rulers of the dead, Hades and Persephone. Moved by his devotion and the power of his art, they agree to release Eurydice, on one condition: Orpheus must lead her upward to the world of the living without looking back at her until they have both reached the surface. Orpheus begins the ascent, hearing her footsteps behind him but unable to see her. Near the exit, at the threshold between darkness and daylight, **doubt and longing overwhelm him**. He turns to look. In that instant Eurydice is lost again, fading back into the Underworld, unreachable. Orpheus tries to follow, but the passage is closed to the living; he is forced to return alone. After this second loss, Orpheus withdraws from love and society. In many versions, he is eventually killed violently (most famously torn apart by maenads). Even then, the myth insists that his song persists: his severed head and lyre continue to “sing” as they drift downstream, and the lyre is later placed among the stars as a constellation. 📃📜**Principal ancient sources:** * Plato, *Symposium* * Apollonius Rhodius, *Argonautica* * Virgil, *Georgics* * Ovid, *Metamorphoses* * Pausanias, *Description of Greece* * Hyginus, *Astronomica* * | | | --- | |

**First meetup of the Columbus AI Engineering group.** We’ll kick things off with a practical, beginner-friendly discussion on: **How LLMs like ChatGPT actually work — and how to build real applications with them.** We’ll cover: * what’s actually happening under the hood (at a high level) * why LLMs behave the way they do (hallucinations, prompt sensitivity, etc.) * how people are building real systems with them today * where things break in practice This will be a **short, informal talk (\~15–20 min)** followed by open discussion and Q&A. Whether you’re an engineer, builder, or just curious about how modern AI systems work, you’re welcome to join. No slides, no fluff — just real conversation about real systems. We’ll hang out afterward and get to know each other.

Join us for an engaging panel discussion on **AI Agentic Coding** and how autonomous AI systems are transforming the way software is built. Experts in AI, software engineering, and developer tools will share insights on how agentic AI—systems that can plan, reason, and execute coding tasks—is reshaping modern development workflows. The discussion will cover topics such as AI-assisted development, productivity gains, challenges around reliability and governance, and what the future of software engineering may look like with AI agents as collaborators. Whether you’re a developer, tech leader, or AI enthusiast, this session is a great opportunity to learn, ask questions, and explore how agentic AI is redefining coding

The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA

So this month's prompt is more general. I think we can all agree that we are living in "unique" times that require coping skills. I think that one role and/or purpose of philosophy is to help us deal with our daily lives and our "unique" times. So, let's share our feelings and thoughts about which philosopher/philosophy we turn to in order to deal with our crazy events. Who/what helps you stay focused in your daily life and helps you sleep at night. I find that Stoicism with a little philosophical pessimism mixed in goes a long way in helping me deal with what I see as very destructive, fearful and mean spirited public policies at both the state and federal levels. Hope to see you on March 28th!
