**25 marca 2026** o **18:00** spotykamy się w **IndieBI**, **Piotrkowska 157A**, Hi Piotrkowska na prezentacjach: "Logging Module Adventures" oraz "Home Assistant in Action: Automate, Customize, Control". To dobry moment, żeby wpaść po konkretną wiedzę techniczną, a przy okazji poznać ludzi z lokalnej społeczności Python Łódź. 🗓️ Jak wygląda ten wieczór? Zaczynamy od prezentacji i pytań do prelegentów, w przerwie szybko przechodzimy do rozmów w mniejszych grupach, a po części oficjalnej wiele osób zostaje jeszcze na dalszą integrację i techniczne dyskusje. 👋 Dla kogo jest to spotkanie? To spotkanie jest dla osób technicznych z Łodzi, które chcą poznać Python Łódź od środka, ale też dla tych, którzy dopiero sprawdzają, czy taki meetup jest dla nich. Jeśli interesuje Cię Python, narzędzia developerskie albo po prostu chcesz posłuchać konkretnych prezentacji i pogadać z ludźmi z branży, odnajdziesz się tutaj bez problemu. 🎤 Prelekcje Tego wieczoru skupiamy się na praktycznych tematach, które powinny zainteresować zarówno osoby pracujące z Pythonem na co dzień, jak i tych, którzy chcą zobaczyć realne przykłady z projektów i codziennej pracy. 1. **Logging Module Adventures** \- Konrad Gawda Logging module seems a little bit odd. If you would like to understand its logic - join me on my journey into the depths of Python logging. I will share learnings from my own adventure, driven by curiosity and need to add context to long running tasks' logs. 2. **Home Assistant in Action: Automate, Customize, Control** \- Jarek Śmietanka Discover how Home Assistant lets you take full control of your smart home, from lights and climate to music and hydroponics. This talk covers the project's open-source philosophy, vast ecosystem, and thriving community, alongside a real-world developer journey of setting up, securing, and customizing Home Assistant in a personal home environment. You'll see practical examples of automation, integrations, dashboards, and remote access, plus insights on balancing flexibility, privacy, and complexity. Whether you're a Python developer or a tech enthusiast, this session will give you inspiration and concrete ideas to start or improve your own smart home setup 🕒 Agenda 18:00 - Rozpoczęcie i sprawy organizacyjne 18:15 - Prezentacja 1 19:00 - Przerwa 19:30 - Prezentacja 2 20:15 - Networking 🔗 Gdzie nas znaleźć? ➡️ Oficjalna strona: https://pythonlodz.org ➡️ Meetup: https://www.meetup.com/python-lodz ➡️ Discord: https://discord.gg/jbvWBMufEf ➡️ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/pythonlodz ➡️ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/python-lodz ➡️ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/pythonlodz ➡️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@pythonlodz

At the meetings we try to expand our knowledge in cybersecurity by solving CTF (Capture The Flag) on the HackTheBox platform. We meet every 2 weeks on Wednesday. We invite all interested people, regardless of their level! We do not have an agenda for the meeting, we will determine during which machine we will do. We focus mainly on practice, so you need to actively participate in the meeting: * bring your laptop with you * prepare a virtual machine with Kali Linux (or any system you like, but systems with the Linux kernel will be best) \-\-\- How to find us If you have trouble getting in, call 42-203-20-50 or go to our chat room - https://t.me/hakierspejs. Need more information? Contact us via chat or email. Find details here https://lodz.hackerspace.pl/

Spotkania z serii wymiany wiedzy podczas wspólnego rozwiązywania zadań CTF – jest to świetna zabawa pozwalająca równocześnie rozwinąć wiedzę w zakresie cyberbezpieczeństwa. Poziom trudności CTF-owego zadania ustalimy na początku spotkania. Najprawdopodobniej wybierzemy coś z platformy Hack The Box. Spotykamy się **co tydzień w środę o 19:00.** \-\-\- Zaczynamy o 19:00, ale warto sprawdzić https://at.hs-ldz.pl – być może ktoś otworzy siedzibę wcześniej. Jeżeli masz problem z wejściem, zadzwoń na 42-203-20-50 albo wejdź na naszego chata (patrz poniżej). Potrzebujesz więcej informacji? Skontaktuj się z nami na czacie lub mailowo.

Join us for a casual chat over coffee & tea at Grandview Grind! Come out and meet some new people, enjoy your favorite drink, and make some new friends!

Communication is everything in life You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate. Hosted by the Church of Scientology of Central Ohio 1266 Dublin Road, Columbus, OH 43215 For more information, contact Rhiannon, the Event Host at 614-221-5024

Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 7:00pm on Wednesday, March 25 at Streetlight Guild. Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done. **SCHEDULE:** 6:45ish - Quick introductions 7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour 8:00 - The End **OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing. **BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer. Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild! **WHAT SHOULD I BRING?** Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you! **OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:** * **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space! * **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels. * **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay! * **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.

Join us for this free, in person meeting on the subject of betrayals, losses and how to get over them so you can build lasting relationships. Do you want more motivation and confidence to build lasting relationships? Are you burdened by a stressful relationship? Unhealthy relationships can trigger feelings of anger, despair or self-doubt. They can create dwindling spirals of fights and seeking to make-up, or trying to “pin the blame” on someone or something. If you don’t find the RIGHT reasons, or select the correct sources of the problem, the problem can just get worse and worse. Whether in love or personal ties, with friends or at work, our life really IS affected by the quality of our relationships. Good ones can promote pleasure and survival, while less optimum ones can lead to annoyance, anger, self-doubt, stress, or even affect our health and ability to survive well. Whether you are suffering from a divorce, or a painful break-up, don’t know who to trust (or who to CHOOSE) as a partner, friend, boss or employee - the anxiety of relationship troubles can really make a mess of things. Maybe you’ve suffered a betrayal, or are dealing with hostility or criticalness or invalidation. Dwindling relationships can involve destructive behavior, where we hurt those we love, or start succumbing to self-destructive thoughts, attitudes or behaviors that spiral out of control and affect much more than our immediate relationship. Past losses in love or life can affect how we act or react to new people and situations and hold us back from even starting to create new, possibly great relationships! How can one get back onto a saner course of action? Come to our Meetup, where we can introduce you to some of the knowledge, tools and techniques of the breakthroughs in the field of the mind that we can apply to this ever important area of life: human relationships! Break free from self imposed limitations Here we will discuss: • How to “erase” the trauma of past hurts and betrayals so that one isn’t always repeating past mistakes. • Why and how do the negative emotions of others affect you? • Why is my partner withdrawing and what can I do about it? • Why do we sometimes feel compelled to hurt the ones we love? • Fights & arguments - what's really behind them? • What underlies “corrosive criticism” or the need to invalidate self or others? • How one can stably change one’s outlook on life so they can affect positive change? • Where do compulsive destructive behaviors come from and what can be done about them? • How to form closer bonds & keep growing the relationships with the people you care about? • How to enhance one’s own ability to survive and create positive healthy relationships whether in love, family & friendships or in work, business or one’s career? Relationships can be hard and life itself IS challenging. Why not arm yourself with the knowledge and breakthroughs that have been made about the mind, mental reactions & interpersonal relationships, so that one has better awareness and control over themselves and life in general. Learn where painful experiences are “stored” and how they can unknowingly affect us. You will also find out how one can “erase” those past painful experiences so that one is free to move forward without being tripped up by the past. Learn too, about what can lead some people to become “toxic” personalities and how to identify those traits in others so you won’t be tripped up trusting the wrong person. Our free Meet-ups occur in a safe environment where one can learn, without fear of judgment or criticism, and without the recommendation of harmful mental techniques or therapies, just how YOU can get yourself onto a happier & more successful path: in love & in life. We look forward to having you join us! This class is held at the Dianetics and Scientology Life Improvement Center of Central Ohio.

**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 **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
