Hi All, The feedback was: More best practices! More code! Less slides! And here we go ... Building on the success and momentum of the first meetup this year (in/with ServiceNow), we are doing our second Practitioners Day! Brian Kelleher (CEO @ MicroDoc) is back and will talk about agents which iterate and check their own work in the cloud when certain conditions are met (e.g. new sentry issue, new user email, new PR). I will do another no-slides/just-code session and will probably demo Github speckit (an opinionated Spec-Driven Design framework). This time we are hosted by UCD. We will be in the brand new O'Connor Centre for Learning (Room L1.03). The agenda for the evening will be ... * 18:00 - Doors open. Pizza and Drinks - All * 18:30 - Welcome - Roland * 18:45 - Making Agents work for you - Brian * 19:30 - No slides. Just code - Roland * 20:00 - Wrap up. More mingling - All Hope to see you then and there. Regards ... Roland

Join us on Saturday mornings for a self-awareness experience through dance — designed to help you feel free, confident, sensual, light, and fully alive. 💃🏽✨ Each module lasts 4 weeks and has a theme. Between modules, we take one Saturday off. We also often stay for lunch together at a café of our choice, because community is part of the experience. In the sessions, we usually explore: • Grounded hip movement and natural body isolation • Combinations focused on flow and expression • Musicality and rhythm connection • Confidence through dynamic footwork \- Latin dances\, Commercial\, heels\, belly dance • That radiant energy that comes from moving without holding back This class is open to **all levels**. At the moment, most students have no or little experience with dance. Whether you already dance or you simply want to feel your body again, this space is for you. Expect warmth, laughter, a little challenge and a lot of energy. Let’s move, sweat and awaken our vital force together ❤️‍🔥 **Location:** The Liffey Trust Studios **Start Date of this module:** 14/03/2026 **End Date of this module:** 04/04/2026 **Time:** 11:00 To reserve your spot, please join this event and complete the payment.

In 1970, she wrote that "Women's Liberation is finding it very hard to explain the difference, when you come down to it, except in terms of physical make-up. And men are as different as women, which no-one holds against them. It's the system which divides. Break the system, unite the people."[\[5\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nell_McCafferty#cite_note-5) That same year, she began campaigning against children's courts in Dublin, which sent children as young as seven to "brutal reform schools".[\[6\]](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nell_McCafferty#cite_note-:1-6)*

Hi everyone, I hope you're well! With this month's Meetup rescheduled to the last Friday of the month, we’re on time for the release of this well-reviewed and promising thriller and will go to see it in the Lighthouse Cinema in Smithfield. TWO PROSECUTORS @8:30pm at the Lighthouse Cinema. Screen 4 (117mins) Seating is unallocated so do buy your tickets early - it’s a smaller cinema. [TWO PROSECUTORS | Official UK & IRE Trailer | In Cinemas 27 March](https://youtu.be/rzYfw1M9qT4) *“TWO PROSECUTORS is a haunting portrait of Stalinist Russia, wherein thousands of letters from falsely accused detainees are burned in a jail cell. Against all odds, one of them lands on the desk of a local prosecutor, who takes it upon himself to seek justice for the prisoner.”* There are many reviews online and here are a few: [https://www.filmireland.net/cannes-review-two-prosecutors/](https://www.filmireland.net/cannes-review-two-prosecutors/) [https://www.timeout.com/movies/two-prosecutors-review-2026](https://www.timeout.com/movies/two-prosecutors-review-2026) **Dinner beforehand:** I’ll book a table for dinner at Oscars Bar next door at 6:30pm.
