Literary Reading Group: Anton Chekov's "The Student" and "Gooseberries"
We will discuss two very short stories by Anton Chekhov: [The Student](https://www.ibiblio.org/eldritch/ac/student.html) and [Gooseberries](https://americanliterature.com/author/anton-chekhov/short-story/gooseberries).
The first was apparently Chekhov's own favorite story of his, and is a reflection on the continuity of human suffering and joy across the ages, and asks in what way the past stays with us.
The second is part of a trilogy and revolves around questions of how happy we can be when that happiness is based upon self-satisfaction.
Together, the stories will help us discuss broader questions of happiness in our lives and how it can be achieved.
We will meet at L'Objet TrouvĂŠ near the VeletrĹžnĂ PalĂĄc. I look forward to seeing you there!

Jak v tĂ˝mu udrĹžet kontext, i kdyĹž mÄnĂte LLM jako ponoĹžky

* **Pitva orchestrĂĄtoru:** Dan Charousek ukĂĄĹže, proÄ je vlastnĂ kontext a orchestrace dĹŻleĹžitÄjĹĄĂ neĹž model, kterĂ˝ zrovna vyhrĂĄvĂĄ benchmarky.
* **Konec rozpadu workflow:** Jak mÄnit modely podle ceny, vĂ˝konu nebo use-casu bez pĹepisovĂĄnĂ procesĹŻ a dokumentace.
* **Know-how jako majetek firmy:** Jak uchovat kontext, rozhodnutĂ a znalost vaĹĄeho prostĹedĂ mimo konkrĂŠtnĂ model nebo tool.
**đď¸ Kdy:** ĂterĂ˝ 2. 6. 2026 od 18:00

Evennt #31 nenĂ o naleĹĄtÄnĂ˝ch prezentacĂch. Je to o ĹživĂŠm demu (kterĂŠ se moĹžnĂĄ rozbije), o otevĹenĂŠ debatÄ s Danem Charouskem a o hledĂĄnĂ cesty, jak z AI udÄlat pĹedvĂdatelnĂ˝ proces, kterĂ˝ firmÄ pĹinĂĄĹĄĂ stabilitu, kontrolu a konkurenÄnĂ vĂ˝hodu.

You are not alone!
Come share your spiritual misadventures. Its a space where you can bring a poem, story, koan etc. Or just come and hang out. All paths and experiences are welcome.
We are meeting at Stromovka Park, at the clearing near Fontana Stromovka (pin in the description). Bring something to sit on, pets are also welcome!
Weâll start with an opening circle, short group meditation and then move into sharing and discussion.

Data & Analytics Wednesday - Finding Product Insights
**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose**
Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals⌠all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isnât more data. Itâs often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap.
Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)âs CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behaviorâmoving people, and moving metrics. Youâll learn:
* Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge
* How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change
* Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction
* How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools
This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work.
**About Our Speaker**
[Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.

Stop Guessing: A Product Person's Guide to AI Adoption
## đ¤ Host Information

Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption â no guesswork required.
đ ď¸ What to Bring

AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!)
