Wednesday is karaoke day. Every Wednesday we gather to sing. Come with a friend or alone, with or without a voice. The format is simple: show up, grab a microphone, and sing whatever you want. Or don't sing, just support others. As usual, the meeting place is Top Club. If you haven't been before, you can get to know the space at the same time. We're looking forward to seeing you this Wednesday. See you there! Trešdiena ir karaoke diena. Katru trešdienu mēs pulcējamies dziedāt. Nāc ar draugu vai viens, ar balsi vai bez. Formāts ir vienkāršs: nāc, paņem mikrofonu un dziedi, ko vien vēlies. Vai arī nedzied, vienkārši atbalsti citus. Kā parasti, tikšanās vieta ir Top klubs. Ja iepriekš neesi tur bijis, vari vienlaikus iepazīties ar vietu. Gaidīsim ciemos šajā trešdienā. Tiekamies tur!

**The imprints of time: The adventures of a typewriter throughout the 20th century** Once a typewriter created a revolution in writing and communication. After that it became a crucial part of office work that allowed us to quickly write documents. Later - an old and obsolete residue of the past, turning into a small piece of all the things a computer and today’s smart devices are capable of. Now it’s reviving yet again and gives an opportunity to meet itself. We invite you to not just meet the typewriter itself, but also, it’s always-changing world filled with stories. Typewriter – a device that with it’s timeline shows how some mechanism could not just be an innovation of it’s time, but also a part of office work, literature, politics and today’s nostalgia. What can you expect: * A selection of historic typewriters – with their stories and specialties; * An insight into typewriter’s role in society; * Things that lived alongside the typewriter – what they used to write, how they were repaired and where they were produced; Visitors can also try selected typewriters out themselves and take what they wrote along! The number of papers is limited! Meet the typewriters and their rhythmic clicking sounds and the vintage analogue writing experience – that’s not just writing, it’s a whole era or people’s lives. The event will be available from 19:00 up to 00:00, at Sergeja Eizenšteina iela 59a, Riga. Free of admission. *There will be a technical break from 21:00 until 21:30, during which the event will not be available for a visit.* *Filming and photography will be happening during the event with purposes of publicity and protection of the property.*

The methodology of deploying from a build is now baked into our culture. Take it a touch farther with infrastructure as code and a few extra techniques, and you can reliably deploy to any platform: cloud, on-prem, container, PaaS, and more. Join us as we learn the methodology of GitOps, the critical pieces you need in place, and the elegance of rollbacks with GitOps. You'll leave with a working repo of deployment techniques that doesn't consume any paid tools or container-specific techniques.

**Welcome to Drunken Philosophy** a casual, curious social discussion **Optional topic for this meetup: What's up with all the AI hate?** A recent survey found that 74% of Americans have a negative view of AI, and I want to know why. Come out and debate whether AI is good or bad. My hot take: a labor-saving tool that could potentially help cure cancer gets called dangerous because it might raise unemployment or cause a speculative investment bubble, that tells you a lot more about capitalism and the economic system we live under than it does about the tool itself. As a computer programmer, I think AI is a wonderful tool that has increased my productivity by at least an order of magnitude. I'd go so far as to say Claude Code is the best tool I have ever used. Debate me and name a better one. Is AI potentially dangerous? Yes, but so are a lot of tools. Chainsaws. Steam engines (early ones would occasionally explode and kill everyone in the room). Do you think cavemen sat around debating whether fire could be used as a weapon or for self-harm, and decided not to discover it? I have two friends who hate AI for opposite reasons: one thinks it's a fad and not useful, and the other thinks it's going to take over everything and cause human extinction. Come out tonight, have a friendly debate, and make some friends. No lectures. Friendly crowd. Drop in for one drink and stay if it's fun.
