GrafanaCON Local meetup: Prague
GrafanaCON Local meetup: Prague
**There is still capacity in the event!** 🎉 **You just need to add yourself to WAITLIST - and we will review your registration and confirm you!** Just because the venue capacity is limited, to ensure the best experience & relevance for the community, the registrations are not auto-confirmed - but managed this way. Without a previous confirmation email, we won't be able to let you in! 😢 \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- Join your local observability community for an evening of open source inspiration, real-world stories, and meaningful connections - all in a laid-back, meetup-style setting. This event will feature a recap of the [GrafanaCON](https://grafana.com/events/grafanacon/) keynote, combined with fresh voices from your own community. Grafana team members walk through Grafana 13 and the most impactful improvements across the platform. Learn about how Grafana is becoming easier and safer to operate as production infrastructure, with updates that improve configuration management, recovery, and long-term maintainability. The session showcases significant advances in core user workflows, including more flexible and powerful dashboards, with improved performance. Whether you’re building dashboards, scaling Kubernetes, contributing to open source, or just getting started - this meetup is for you! **🎟 Free to attend** 🍕 Pizza + soft drinks provided 🤝 Built for connection 💡 Real talks from real practitioners \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **AGENDA:** **17:30 - 18:00**: Arrivals and pizza **18:00 - 18:30:** GrafanaCON recap presentation - by **Grafana Labs** team: **Jára Benc,** Staff Software Engineer & **Juraj Michalek**, Senior Solutions Architect **18:30 - 18:45:** Q & A **18:45 - 19:40:** Community talks ***1\. "Who gets paged? Unit\-testing Grafana notification policies\.*" by Martin Fryč, Staff Infrastructure Engineer at SentinelOne** \*Grafana notification policies decide who wakes up at 3am, and a single mistyped label can silently reroute an alert into the wrong team's branch. Grafana 13 and grafana-operator let teams own their slice of the policy tree, but Alertmanager still evaluates one merged tree, so a too-broad matcher in team A's subtree can quietly swallow team B's alerts. This talk shows a small Go tool that treats routing as code: declarative "given these labels, expect these receivers" assertions, run in CI against the assembled policy. We will walk through the routing semantics, real misroutings the tool can catch, and why multi-tree provisioning makes this test layer more necessary, not less. **2\. "*Using OpenTelemetry in development of resin 3D printers*" by** **Pavel Štrobl** \*In this talk we will take a look how it's possible to get metrics from upcoming resin printers from Prusa Research using OpenTelemetry, why it was not possible to use Prometheus Remote Write and the quirks while getting metrics from hardware constrained environment. **19:40 - 21:30**: Discussion and more pizza Note that by registering for this event you consent to related event & product communications from Grafana Labs and agree to our[ code of conduc](https://grafana.com/events/events-code-of-conduct/)t \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **​PLEASE NOTE**: at the SentinelOne office, in line with the venue security requirements - all meetup attendees will be required be verified by their\*\* ID card (or passport\*\*), also to\*\* sign a generic ND\*\*A used for all office visitors and to wear a visitor badge with their name during the whole event - to be able to attend the meetup
AI on Trial: What AI Act actually means for your company
AI on Trial: What AI Act actually means for your company
Join us for another AI Transformers Prague meetup — a community for leaders, innovators, and practitioners who want to turn AI from buzzword into real business impact. This time organized in cooperation with KPMG. **This session puts AI on trial — through the lens of the EU AI Act.** As regulation becomes reality, companies are being forced to move from experimentation to accountability. The question is no longer *“Can we use AI?”* but *“Are we allowed to — and under what conditions?”* The AI Act is set to reshape how organizations design, deploy, and govern AI systems. But what does it actually mean in practice? Who is responsible? What’s high-risk? And how do you stay compliant without slowing innovation to a halt? *** 🧭 **Theme: AI on Trial — Navigating the EU AI Act** We’ll explore questions like: * What does the AI Act require from companies today and in the near future? * How do you determine if your AI system is “high-risk”? * What are the biggest compliance challenges organizations face? * How can companies balance innovation with regulation? * What practical steps should teams take now to prepare? *** 🎙 **Speakers** Experts from consulting, corporate, and public sector bringing different perspectives on how the AI Act is interpreted and applied in practice: [Martin Čapek](https://www.linkedin.com/in/martincapeklawyer/) – KPMG [Ivana Kudláčková](https://www.linkedin.com/in/ivana-kudl%C3%A1%C4%8Dkov%C3%A1-4b17923ab/) – Český telekomunikační úřad Petr Beránek – MSD *** 🎤 **Format** Short expert talks followed by a panel discussion and audience Q&A — focused on practical implications, not legal theory. *** 📋 **Agenda (June 16)** 17:30–18:00 – Arrival, registration & networking 18:00–18:10 – Welcome & intro 18:10–19:00 – Expert talks 19:00–19:45 – Panel discussion & Q&A 19:45–20:30 – Networking, drinks & informal conversations *** 👥 **Who Is This For?** * Founders & startup leaders working with AI * Product managers & engineering leaders * Corporate innovators & transformation teams * Legal, compliance, and risk professionals * Data scientists and AI practitioners * Anyone affected by upcoming AI regulation Whether you're building AI products or evaluating their use, this session will help you understand what the AI Act means for your organization — and what to do next. *** 📍 **Practical Info** Date: June 16 Time: 17:30–20:30 Location: KPMG offices, Prague Language: English Attendance is free, but spots are limited. RSVP to secure your place and join others navigating the future of AI in Europe. By attending this event, you agree that photos and videos may be used for marketing purposes.

Queer Men Connect: Going Deeper
Queer Men Connect: Going Deeper
Do you ever feel like being gay or queer has seemingly been reduced to hook-up apps, partying and superficiality? Does spending time at gay clubs, bars and saunas leave you feeling unfulfilled or even empty? Does your inner voice tell you that there must be a more meaningful way to connect with your queer brothers? Well, there is, now. 𝙌𝙪𝙚𝙚𝙧 𝙈𝙚𝙣 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙣𝙚𝙘𝙩: 𝙂𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝘿𝙚𝙚𝙥𝙚𝙧 is an event for men seeking to connect and build community through yoga, mindfulness, and deep & honest conversations. A phone-free, alcohol & substance-free space where you can be your authentic self, connect with like-minded men and learn tools for rebalancing your body, mind & spirit. 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙨𝙩 𝙤𝙣𝙚…. We invite you to a Two-hour evening of: ✨𝙔𝙤𝙜𝙖 ✨𝙃𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩 𝘾𝙞𝙧𝙘𝙡𝙚 ✨𝙈𝙞𝙣𝙙𝙛𝙪𝙡𝙡𝙣𝙚𝙨𝙨 ✨𝘿𝙚𝙚𝙥 𝘾𝙤𝙣𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣𝙨 How did we arrive here? The idea was born from a simple conversation between two strangers. Two Czech guys, Martin & Pavel, who tried to find a similar space in the Czech Republic after returning from overseas. After experiencing gay retreats focused on yoga, meditation, tantric practice, Reiki, sweat lodges, and embodiment work in Spain, Belgium, Australia, and New Zealand, it was time for the Czech Republic to shine. About your hosts: Martin is a Yoga Alliance-Certified Yoga Teacher with 200-hour training received in Belgium. He is passionate about yoga, mindfulness, and his vision is to create a healthy gay community and help reverse the ‘gay men loneliness’ epidemic. Martin pioneers DEI initiatives as Partnership Manager in his corporate role. “The inspiration came from communities I experienced during a retreat in Spain and while living in Belgium, where I saw how powerful it can be to have spaces centred around openness, authenticity, connection, and well-being. I also know similar communities exist in cities like Berlin, and I would love to help create something like that here in Prague.” Pavel has been an avid meditator for years, with experience in mindfulness, tantric meditation, Reiki, and shamanic ceremonies from his life in New Zealand and Australia. Living more consciously, connected with universal energy, while honouring the elements, the ancestors, and Pacha Mama, has been instrumental in Pavel’s growth. He continued his learning by completing Level 1 & Level 2 Reiki training earlier this year. The call to return home was answered, and now it’s time to open a space for queer men in the Czech Republic. “I received my first ‘activation’ from a Meditation Master in Vietnam in 2007, but corporate life & chasing ‘status’ got in the way. I returned to regular practice in 2021, and slowly incorporated different practices into my daily life. I credit conscious living to healing my traumas and to the success of my ongoing sobriety.” WHEN: 18 June at 8pm WHERE: Zen Den Yoga, Vinohrady, Prague 320 CZK / person Secure your spot by filling out this form: https://forms.gle/SwNW4pwHB4HLhApy6 Our first event is limited to 15 men only. No prior experience in yoga, mindfulness, or conscious living is required.

Hola tod@s! Tenemos otra reunion este viernes en el Pivni Bar! Sois muy bienvenidos!
Where will we work in the age of AI?
Where will we work in the age of AI?
## **What IdeaVerse is about** **We meet usually once a month to discuss some of the current challenges as well and perhaps come up with new ideas on how to overcome them. The format of the meeting includes an initial sharing of viewpoints by each participant without judgment, and in the second half we will discuss our ideas and try to find things to learn from each other.** **In this next meeting we'll be discussing...** the future of work in the age of AI. I know, people are talking too much about this already in tech meetups where they just praise it to Kingdom Come. We're tired of it. But whether we like that it exists or not, we are confronted with a choice that I'd like us to discuss: **Do I lean into AI like I'm told I HAVE TO, or choose a different path, one more into physical labor or working with people? Or do I just say goodbye to work and start my own business?** We hear thhat AI is going to replace a large number of jobs, starting with call centers, Uber drivers, writers, graphic designers, translators, etc. That a senior expert will replace 4 others in his team using AI. That the only jobs that will remain are those which require human touch like holding meetings, talking face to face with customers, jobs that require empathy or jobs that require dexterity like plumbing. **But the path forward seems so unclear:** 1\. Who should learn AI: young people who want to compete with seniors\, or seniors because juniors don't know enough to spot errors? 2\. Should I double down on AI courses and certificates or jump a sinking ship and learn a craft or improve my social work skills? Or start my own business to escape irrelevance at work? 3\. Do we go with the flow and adapt to this rapid overwhelming change\, or demand from policy makers that they do not let companies do as they please if that means lower wages and unemployment at scale? **Some suggested reading/watching:** * [If AI Takes All Of Our Jobs... Who's Going To Buy Everything?](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MYB0SVTGRj4) (the answer may shock you! :) - a 12 minute video) - good summary of the most likely future scenarios for automation and economics. Does not answer our questions but sets the scene for it. * [AI Experts: These Are The Only 5 Jobs That Will Remain in 2030!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCjmK66x_Yk) (15 minute video) - a collage of various human and AI experts discussing options for work in the future (mostly from the famous DOAC). * [The Future of Jobs Report 2025](https://www.weforum.org/publications/the-future-of-jobs-report-2025/in-full/3-skills-outlook/) (40 minute read) - lots of data, may need skimming but highly useful insight into projections for which jobs will be useful in the future. **The meeting is free to attend, but please buy a drink or two at our patron's place, to make them happy. They also have food in case you find the meeting too early (see [menu](https://altangrebovka.choiceqr.com/section:kavarna---jidelni-listek)).**

How to Be a Better Communicator - Free In-Person Seminar
Communication is everything in life You are only as successful as your ability to communicate. \- What if you could confidently talk to anyone? \- What if you had the ability to calmly control every conversation? \- What if you could close that sale\, ask for that date\, make new friends\, repair problematic relationships\, get that raise\, or effortlessly express any idea with confidence? You can! The secret to success relies on your ability or inability to effectively communicate. Attend a free seminar and gain a better ability to communicate.

Walk & Talk About Life's Big Questions
Walk & Talk About Life's Big Questions
[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries. If the walks feel like a spark... The Board is the fire. Apply [here](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board).
