**Durable Functions, Upgraded: Meet the Durable Task Scheduler** Durable Task Scheduler is the next‑generation execution engine for Durable Functions — faster, more reliable, and built to handle real‑world orchestration workloads at scale. In this session, we’ll look under the hood at what’s changed in the runtime, how the new scheduler improves performance and reliability, and why it represents the future of Durable Functions. You’ll also get a practical, developer‑focused walkthrough of how to upgrade your existing orchestrations, what to watch out for, and how to take advantage of the new capabilities right away. **Speaker: Callon Campbell** Callon Campbell is an Azure Architect, Developer and Microsoft MVP in Azure.

RSVP on https://rsvp.withgoogle.com/events/google-cloud-labs-ai-toolkit-toronto . Join Google Cloud Labs for an immersive, hands-on workshop designed to provide you with the practical skills and architectural patterns needed to deploy secure and scalable AI on GKE  and integrate applied AI solutions across Google’s Data Cloud. Please fill out the registration form on Google's event page to express interest in joining the event! Capacity is limited and registration is required.  Welcome to The Cloud Engineer's AI Toolkit workshop!  This hands-on workshop will provide you with the practical skills and architectural patterns needed to deploy secure and scalable AI on GKE  and integrate applied AI solutions across Google’s Data Cloud. This is an interactive session, not a lecture. Get ready for a series of live labs where you will use GKE OneMCP and the Gemini CLI to accelerate operations, and implement the GKE Agent Sandbox for secure code execution. In our data lab, we’ll guide you through building multimodal pipelines to power BigQuery Graph analytics and agentic workflows in ADK. You will leave with the practical expertise to deploy, secure, and scale production-grade AI workloads. Note: To participate, you must bring your own laptop and power cable. The activities require a laptop and cannot be completed on a tablet or phone.    Who Should Attend? This program is designed for Platform and Security Engineers, as well as Data Practitioners.  Whether your focus is implementing defense-in-depth strategies, such as securing inference endpoints and enforcing security policies via Workload Identity and Policy Controller, or building multimodal data platforms that power agentic workflows, this session is for you. To get the most out of the labs, you should have foundational knowledge of GKE, and containerization, and basic SQL, alongside a commitment to maintaining auditable, scalable security for AI workloads. What You Will Learn: Master AI-Augmented Operations: Dive into the next generation of infrastructure management by utilizing the GKE MCP server, Gemini CLI, and kubectl-ai to replace manual slogging with seamless, natural-language-driven cluster operations. Architect Secure Agentic Ecosystems: Build and deploy AI agents using the GKE Agent Sandbox, implementing hardware-isolated environments that safely execute untrusted, AI-generated code without compromising your cluster's security posture. Engineer Autonomous Remediation: Transition from reactive troubleshooting to proactive platform skills, creating custom AI agents that autonomously detect, diagnose, and resolve complex configuration drifts and cascading failures in real-time. Unify & Govern AI Data Pipelines: Learn to establish governed pathways for ingesting, cleaning, and managing multi-format data across structured and unstructured sources, ensuring your AI is always grounded in accurate, secure information. Unlock Multimodal Insights: Discover how to leverage built-in AI across your data ecosystem to analyze complex datasets, compare vector embeddings, and integrate your agents with data  to uncover patterns that human eyes might miss. Agenda --- Hosted By Solomon Hsu, GDG Organizer I believe in one mandate in the digital space: Crafting Authentic Digital Experiences for All People. With that vision, I value digital accessibility and user centric design as the core foundation for all my projects. It is within the users' insights and needs that allow us to build great apps.

\*These classes are not a language exchange, but instead are meant to be a step in between so that students feel confident maintaining in depth and grammatically correct oral conversations outside of class\* \***Meetup event numbers only tend to show new students registering and do not include returning students attending class.** **Per class, there is an average of 7 students.** The first 2 classes are free and then only cost between $18 and $35 depending on which type of class you want to continue with\* These French, English (For Spanish and French speakers only), and Spanish classes are primarily meant for adults who are travellers, or who are planning to live in a French, English, or Spanish-speaking country. The classes are primarily oral-based through guided conversations. They will teach you how to handle conversations in situations such as **"Going to the Convenience Store"**, **"Making Plans"**, **"Negotiating Prices"**, and **"Going out for a Drink"**. To ensure that students get used to using the language automatically, students will learn to maintain contextual conversations with timing before moving on to the next lesson.

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD

We are excited to host Guided Meditations on Sundays at 6 pm in our Ashram/Gallery/Home! !! !! Everyone wants to know what kind of God we worship and what kind of meditation we do. We worship the GOD that LOVES US! We understand that god is an energy and it lives in us as us. Our meditations guide others to actually experience that energy! xoxo We don't just talk about peace, love and affection, we experience it :) Also we are a home not a business, so we enjoy building community one friend at a time. We always build in time for people to mingle & develop friendships! xoxo Much Love, Frank Tennyson Namaste, Frank Tennyson http://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/a/f/9/9/600_447824953.jpeg
