We are getting together for a relaxed evening in Monti to disconnect from work and actually connect with each other.

Here are our ground rules for the night: * **This is NOT a corporate networking event.** Leave the hustle mentality at the door. * **Everyone is welcome.** Even if you aren't a remote worker, digital nomad, or social media creator, come hang out! * **No pressure to pitch your business.** We’re here to make friends, not find clients. * **No awkward icebreakers.** Just walk up, grab a spritz or a beer, and say ciao. **How to find us:** I will be there from 19:00. Just look for the table with the "Digital Roman" sign. Please hit **RSVP** so I can give the venue an accurate headcount. Can't wait to meet you all and kick off this community!

Una serata dedicata al pensiero, alla letteratura e alla crescita personale. Nel salotto culturale di **[Vatican Privé](https://vaticanprive.com/)**, a pochi passi dal Vaticano. ## **Se la cultura non cambiasse la tua vita, a cosa servirebbe?** La domanda guida della serata invita a riflettere sul ruolo della cultura nella trasformazione dell’individuo. Il dialogo esplorerà come letteratura, filosofia e arte possano contribuire alla costruzione di una struttura mentale capace di superare limiti personali e condizionamenti sociali. ## **Il significato del Dantedì** La scelta del **25 marzo** non è casuale: secondo molti studiosi, è il giorno in cui Dante colloca simbolicamente l’inizio del viaggio narrato nella *Divina Commedia* nel 1300. Un viaggio che rappresenta il passaggio dall’oscurità alla consapevolezza. Il 25 marzo può diventare anche per te un punto di partenza: un momento per fermarti, riflettere e scegliere di compiere il prossimo passo nel tuo percorso di crescita. ## **Maggiori informazioni** https://vaticanprive.com/eventi/dantedi-roma

**Coworking for writers in Rome!** Join us for some focused writing time at [casadante](https://maps.app.goo.gl/gA6w2J8cD36giNF38?g_st=ic) near Piazza Vittorio Emanuele in Esquilino. All writers and all experience levels are welcome and don’t worry, no one will see what you've written. This session is about getting your writing done and meeting other writers in Rome. When you show up, say hello to everyone, grab a drink, and get your writing tools ready. Once you’re settled, take some time to chat with your fellow writers. Once everyone’s arrived, we will lead quick introductions and then set the timer for our quiet and focused writing session. Afterward, we’ll have time to chat and get to know each other. We often talk about our successes and challenges as writers. If you don’t have time to stick around, no worries! **A note about the format** We don’t host critiques or readings. These events are a safe space for writers of all skill levels and genres to work on their craft, so no one will read or critique your writing.

\- Ti interessano le esperienze mentali profonde e ispirate? \- Ti capita di chiederti se finirà tutto con la tua morte o se qualcosa in te continui? \- Ti piace porti domande sul significato della Vita? \- Vorresti imparare qualcosa in più sul superamento della sofferenza? Sarà possibile sperimentare tecniche di *rilassamento muscolare*, di *distensione mentale*, esercizi con le immagini, ma soprattutto *esperienze spirituali condivise* che ci permettano di incontrare in profondità noi stessi e gli altri. Il contesto è del tutto **non-confessionale** e aperto a ogni forma di ateismo, spiritualità e provenienza religiosa. Ci ispiriamo al *Messaggio di Silo*. **Contributo 5€ per l'utilizzo della sala interna che include the e dolce offerti dalla libreria che ci ospita.** Per qualsiasi dubbio *328 1675353 (Sara)* e per saperne di più **Il Blog:** https://meditazionealparco.blogspot.com/ **Instagram**: @meditazionialparco Siamo anche su **Youtube** a questi canali: \- https://www\.youtube\.com/user/zioeracle/videos \- https://www\.youtube\.com/channel/UCPpSj2wKQ6hxr7W_5mXOi9Q/vid

**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 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA

The Humanist Monthly Program is our longest running event and still a community favorite. In the old days it used to be called "Going to HCCO" and we still like to think of it as our flagship event. We will be hearing from Becca Powell, Director of Advocacy and Outreach at Unchained At Last, an organization whose mission is dedication to ending forced and child marriage in the United States through direct services and systems change. Unchained At Last's mission clearly meshes and addresses several of our Humanist Ten Commitments. Becca will educate us about an issue many of us may not be familiar with--but should be. Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.
