**Haluatko oppia puhumaan selkeämmin, itsevarmemmin – ja vähän vähemmällä jännityksellä?** **Stadin Sanasepät** on suomenkielinen puhe- ja esiintymistaitojen treenikenttä, jossa opitaan puhumalla – ei istumalla passiivisena luennoilla. Meillä esiintytään, mokaillaan, pitchataan ja kehitytään turvallisessa ja kannustavassa ilmapiirissä. Tämä on hyvä paikka, jos haluat esimerkiksi: – saada itsevarmuutta esiintymiseen – sanoittaa omaa ajatustasi napakammin – treenata tulevaa työpaikan esitystä varten – kehittyä palautteen antajana (ja vastaanottajana!) – tai vaan oppia puhumaan ihmisille niin, että ne kuuntelee Saat oman mentorin, pääsyn kansainväliseen Toastmasters-materiaaliin – ja ennen kaikkea porukan, joka tsemppaa ja kulkee mukana. Vieraileminen on maksutonta eikä ennakkoilmoittautumista tarvita. Tule testaamaan, miltä tuntuu puhua yleisön edessä. Ei tarvitse olla valmis – kunhan haluat oppia.

PyData Helsinki will meet at **UpCloud**'s office! Schedule: 16:30 Doors open 17:00 Welcome words from **UpCloud** 17:10 **Seija Sirkiä**: *NPS - Not Proper (data) Science?* 17:40 **Touko Väänänen**: *Choosing projects under uncertain preferences for impacts* 18:10 Break — food, drinks, networking 18:45 **PyData Helsinki** **quiz** 19:00 **Alexander Kevin Gilbert**: *Learning Data Engineering (not) from scratch* 19:30 End of programme 20:00 Continue at a nearby bar Talks: * **[Seija Sirkiä](https://www.linkedin.com/in/seija/)**: *NPS - Not Proper (data) Science?* Everybody agrees that Net Promoter Score is not quite as magical as it's made to sound like, but there's still plenty you can do with that data. In this talk I will show what I learned about that while working at HappySignals, including a model that cleans the scores of subgroup effects, such as culture/country. * **[Touko Väänänen](https://www.linkedin.com/in/touko-v%C3%A4%C3%A4n%C3%A4nen-89150114a)**: *Choosing projects under uncertain preferences for impacts* Many choice situations involve choosing a subset of possible projects with several types of impacts. Choosing between the projects introduces trade-offs between the impacts that decision makers disagree about. I present a framework which helps in assessing robust projects that would be chosen with many preferences over the impacts. * **[Alexander Kevin Gilbert](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexander-kevin-gilbert-2449b5237/)**: *Learning Data Engineering (not) from scratch* A PhD in physics and big data analysis experience at CERN might seem irrelevant when applying for a data engineering job, as the tools are completely different. But the two worlds are more connected than they appear. Join me as I explore those connections and share what I've learned along the way.

Most people agree that causing unnecessary suffering to animals is wrong. But beyond that, there is surprisingly little agreement. Do animals have rights, or only interests that humans should consider? Is it acceptable to eat animals? Use them in medical research? Keep them as pets? What, if anything, gives humans a higher moral status than other animals? Among other questions, we will consider: * Why is it wrong to kick a dog for fun? * If a trait gives humans a higher moral status than animals, what should we say about humans who lack that trait? * Should we intervene in nature to reduce animal suffering, or should we leave nature alone? * Is the capacity to suffer enough for moral consideration? * Would it be wrong to painlessly kill an animal that had a good life? * Do we owe more to our pets than to wild animals? Join us for an open and respectful discussion of one of the most enduring and challenging questions in ethics: what do we owe animals? Description by ChatGPT
