Computation

*"There is a voice that doesn’t use words. Listen." — Rumi* **What is one small, everyday decision you make purely based on a 'gut feeling' rather than logic?** From a young age, we are introduced to the fast-paced rhythm of modern life. We are taught to focus on efficiency, productivity, and meeting the non-stop demands of a highly driven, always-on culture. Often, we navigate these well-trodden paths—juggling the constant demands of our careers and the expectations of those around us—until we realize we might feel a bit disconnected from our personal center. Finding our internal compass is about pausing to check our alignment. It takes quiet courage to establish healthy boundaries, manage our energy, and gently prioritize personal well-being amidst daily busyness. However, in a culture that rightly values logic and hard work, or when we are simply prone to over-thinking, tuning into that compass can be tricky. It can be difficult to tell the difference between a genuine gut feeling and simple anxiety, or to know if we are protecting our peace versus just avoiding vulnerability. Join us at this Curious Souls Cafe gathering to explore the gentle journey of self-discovery and calibration. We will discuss how to find our own pace within a high-speed world, how to distinguish true intuition from everyday stress, and how we can build lives that feel deeply authentic while still honoring our responsibilities. Bring your stories, a reflective spirit, and an open mind. Let's discover the groundedness and clarity that comes when we navigate life with a well-calibrated compass. **Inviting those who...** 🧭 Wish to gently explore how to align their daily habits and career goals with their core personal values. 🧠 Sometimes struggle with over-thinking, and want to practice telling the difference between a genuine gut feeling and everyday stress. ⚖️ Want a warm space to discuss the delicate balance between being a reliable, responsible person and protecting their own personal time. 🌱 Seek to balance the rigorous demands of a hyper-connected world with the quiet, restorative practices that bring them genuine joy. 🗣️ Hope to connect with kindred spirits who are also learning to manage the noise of modern life while staying grounded and true to themselves. **📅 Agenda / What You'll Experience** 💬 Prompted Conversations We will use virtual question cards designed to help people thoughtfully explore the foundations of their personal values. Here are some sample questions: * What is a common productivity standard or hustle-culture habit that you’ve gently decided to soften to better protect your peace? * When you find yourself over-thinking or trying to 'calculate' the perfect decision, how do you get back in touch with your gut feeling? * What is the difference between your gut pointing away from something because it's a genuinely bad idea, versus pointing away simply because you are nervous to try it? * What is a common productivity standard or hustle-culture habit that you’ve gently decided to soften to better protect your peace? * Instead of trying to optimize every minute, what is one area of your routine where you happily allow yourself to just be perfectly, unproductively human? From there, we’ll embark on a respectful, engaging, and meaningful conversation, celebrating the diversity of perspectives and ideas within the group. Note: This session may involve virtual question cards accessed via a link or QR code. If you do not have a device (phone/tablet) to access these, please ask a facilitator for assistance; we have spare units available. The exact format of the event may change depending on turnout according to [https://curioussouls.cafe/#how-to](https://curioussouls.cafe/#how-to) and other factors. 💬 Final Thoughts and Feedback Where time allows, in the final 10 minutes of the event, we’ll take a moment to reflect on the key insights, memorable moments, and takeaways from our discussions. This is a chance to distill the shared wisdom and leave with a deeper understanding of the topics we’ve explored together. After the event officially concludes, the group may choose to extend the session, depending on the group’s interest. Of course, you’re welcome to leave at any time that feels right for you. An anonymized summary will be shared for sessions where key insights are identified. After the meeting, our facilitators and participants may reflect on the discussion and contribute to a summary or collaborative workbook based on their notes and observations. Additionally, questions may be revisited in future sessions in an anonymized manner.

Whether you've never done improv before, or you've done it for so long you were quoted in *Truth in Comedy*, or anywhere in between, come join us! Swing by *Gresso's* for the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**! The idea behind improvised comedy is to create entire scenes from scratch. A suggestion is taken from the audience and laughter is built on the spot. This can be done in game form, like *Whose Line Is It Anyway, Make Some Noise,* or *Wild 'n Out*; it can also be done in a longer way, to tell a complicated story, like *TJ & Dave*. Our meetup, which is central Ohio's longest running (and FREE!) weekly comedy event, brings the games for you to play in a safe, supportive, and compassionate environment. Afterward, many members will hang out in *Gresso's* itself and get to know each other. Not only is this a lot of fun, but you get to work on thinking faster on your feet, your public speaking, plus it's an excellent way to meet new people and build relationships that will last a lifetime, and you do that while laughing your butt off! Ask yourself if you want to join the **Columbus Improv Comedy Meetup**, and say "*Yes, And*" that you'll have a blast!

Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat. But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review. In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll demystify what AI agents actually are — without hype or jargon. We’ll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity. We’ll cover: * What makes an AI “agent” instead of just a chatbot * How agents break tasks into steps * Where agents are genuinely useful today * Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review * How to design simple AI workflows for your own work * A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.

**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 You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge. **Abstract** *Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code* Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. 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
