“Resentment is like drinking poison and then hoping it will kill your enemies.” ― Nelson Mandela **(In english!)** Throughout history, human societies have wrestled with division. When identity hardens into polarization, coexistence becomes fragile. Differences can escalate into civil conflict, deepening distrust and resentment that often persist for generations. Yet history also offers rare examples of a different path: moments when cycles of hatred did not spiral into further violence, but instead turned toward reconciliation. In this session we will explore **Ubuntu** — the African ethical philosophy that shaped the moral framework of leaders such as Nelson Mandela and Desmond Tutu. Ubuntu — “I am because we are” — proposes that identity is not purely individual but relational. Even those we oppose remain part of our shared collective. This insight may be the hidden condition behind successful reconciliations. Beyond South Africa’s transition from apartheid, we can examine other cases of reconciliation: the American post–Civil War, the reconciliation between France and Germany, Japan’s postwar transformation, and the peace process in Northern Ireland. **Introduction of guests (15 minutes)** We start with a short introduction of the guests. **Kérdések (1 óra 45 perc)** 1. According to Ubuntu why is hope better than optimism? 2. Are we living in a time of self-respect? 3. Can Ubuntu be applied to someone who opposes Ubuntu? 4. What happens when “we” includes people who reject your values? 5. How does Ubuntu work when conflict is on-going? 6. Can the strength of the collective sometimes go the wrong direction? How to avoid that? 7. Have you put yourself in the shoes of someone you deeply reject? 8. How can we compare the european reconciliation with the South African or North-Irish reconciliations? 9. What is more important for reconciliation: leadership or strong institutions? 10. Can forgiveness be compatible with justice all the time? Is there a point where forgiveness becomes injustice? 11. Why is truth so important in reconciliation? 12. Can reconciliation hold when material inequality persists? 13. Can ubuntu help to undo polarization? 14. How can we apply ubuntu to social media? 15. Is ubuntu a way of individual-to-social maturity? 16. Is polarization a symptom of moral seriousness — or moral immaturity? 17. Is polarization driven more by inequality or by identity? **RSVP:** Please confirm your attendance here on Meetup to save your space and if you cannot assist, yield your space to another person in the waiting list.

**🚀 Join our free Budapest Data Science Meetup!** In our first session, Tamás Németh from DataHub will explore the evolution of data catalogs into "Metadata Control Planes," explaining how authoritative context is the secret sauce for preventing "confident but wrong" AI agents. Then, Daniel Darabos, CTO of LynxKite will take us into the world of biotech, demonstrating how GPU-accelerated screening is fast-tracking drug discovery by targeting G-protein coupled receptors with unprecedented speed. **📅 Date & venue:** * **26 March 2026, Thursday, from 6 pm** * **Shapr3D Office 1054 Budapest, Akadémia u. 6. · Budapest** **Please note that the event's official language is English! By attending this event you agree to be photographed. Let us know if you would not like to appear in these pictures. We may use the pictures in social media.** **Schedule** **17:45 gates open** **17:45-18:15 Warmup and chit-chat** **18:15-19:30 Talks** **19:30 - 21:00 Drinks, snacks, networking** **Beyond the Catalog: The Control Plane for Modern Ecosystems and Agentic AI** **[Németh Tamás](https://www.linkedin.com/in/nemetht/),** [DataHub ](https://www.linkedin.com/company/datahub-cloud/) Software Engineer @ DataHub. Building Datahub, the open-source metadata catalog. Previously led the data-engineering team at Prezi and worked on a platform to fulfill all of the analytical needs at scale. Tamas is also a committer in the Apache Gobblin project. Abstract: Traditional catalogs are no longer sufficient for today’s complex, decentralized landscapes. This session explores their transformation into Metadata Control Planes, the operational “central nervous system” for enterprise information. As AI agents replace humans as primary consumers, this infrastructure becomes the critical bedrock for Context Engineering. Unlike people, these autonomous systems act directly on the information they find without seeking clarification; they require authoritative context to avoid “confident but wrong” outcomes. We will demonstrate how to repurpose your existing lineage, quality signals, and business glossaries to provide the provenance and semantic clarity these models crave. Discover how to evolve a passive inventory into a high-performance engine for reliable, enterprise-grade AI. **Drug discovery with AI: Targeting G-protein coupled receptors with GPU-accelerated screening** Abstract: GPCRs are an important but difficult drug target. The receptor we are focusing on, called Mas, has an important role in regulating the cardiovascular system and muscle growth. A natural compound that activates Mas is in phase 3 trials for treating old-age muscle loss (sarcopenia). As it's based on a plant extract, only a limited supply can be produced. The search is on for a highly efficient, safe, synthetic alternative! Join us to learn more about our GPU-accelerated solution for scoring billions of potential drug molecules with a variety of models. \*\*[Daniel Darabos ](https://www.linkedin.com/in/darabos/)\*\*is the CTO of **[LynxKite](https://www.linkedin.com/company/lynxkite/)**. He has studied at BME and worked at Google and Lynx Analytics previously. He's currently applying his experience with building data science and AI applications to drug discovery for age-related diseases.

There’s something special about a Saturday morning that begins slowly — with movement, music, and a relaxed brunch. (Scroll for Hungarian) Our Yoga & Brunch event is exactly that: when movement and nourishing food come together to create a shared experience.🌿 Join us for a Saturday morning of: 🧘‍♀️ Flow yoga 🎶 Live handpan music 🥣 Vegan brunch ✨ A moment to recharge in a calm, inspiring space in the heart of the city. The program begins with a 75-minute Flow yoga class, guided by Ivett and accompanied by Richard’s live handpan music. In this gentle, continuous flow practice, the breath guides the movement, creating a natural rhythm where the practice can almost become a form of moving meditation. Ivett has been practicing yoga for more than ten years and comes from a modern-contemporary dance background. In her Flow classes, the connection between breath and movement is at the heart of the practice. As Ivett says: “For me, yoga is not just physical exercise – it’s a path back to myself.” The class is accompanied by Richárd’s handpan music, which responds to the rhythm of the practice and helps shape the atmosphere of the space. As he describes it: “My connection to music comes from presence — from an inner silence that slowly takes shape as sound.” Brunch after the practice After the class, from 11:15, a nourishing brunch awaits you, prepared by Smoothie Sanctuary. You can choose from specialty smoothies and smoothie bowls made from fresh, premium ingredients, offering a satisfying brunch experience. Participation fee 12,000 HUF / person The price includes: • a 75-minute yoga class with live handpan music • a full brunch menu of your choice (shot, juice and smoothie or smoothie bowl) Registration Spaces are limited, therefore advance booking is required. Please reserve your spot through the link: https://www.sanctuary.hu/service-page/yoga-brunch-with-live-handpan-music?referral=service_list_widget // Van valami különleges abban, amikor egy szombat reggel lassan indul: mozgással, zenével és egy nyugodt brunch-al. A Yoga & Brunch eseményünk pontosan erről szól: amikor a mozgás és a tápláló ételek találkoznak, és közös élménnyé állnak össze. 🌿 Mozdulj velünk szombat reggel: 🧘‍♀️ flow jóga 🎶 élő handpan zene 🥣 vegán brunch ✨ városi feltöltődés egy különleges, nyugodt térben. A program egy 75 perces Flow jógaórával indul, amelyet Ivett vezet, Richárd élő handpan játékával kísérve. A könnyed, folyamatos áramlású gyakorlásban a légzés adja a ritmust a mozdulatoknak, így a mozgás szinte meditációvá válik. Ivett több mint tíz éve gyakorolja a jógát, modern-kortárs táncos háttérrel érkezett a gyakorlás világába. Az áramló Flow gyakorlásban a légzés és a mozgás összekapcsolása áll a középpontban. Ahogy Ivett fogalmaz: „Számomra a jóga nem csupán testmozgás – hanem egy út vissza önmagamhoz.” Az órát Richárd handpan játéka kíséri, amely a gyakorlás ritmusára reagálva teremti meg az atmoszférát. „A zenével való kapcsolatom a jelenlétből születik: egy belső csendből, ami lassan külső hangokká formálódik.” Brunch a gyakorlás után A jógaóra után 11:15-től brunch vár, a Smoothie Sanctuary jóvoltából. Friss, prémium alapanyagokból készült specialty smoothiek és smoothie bowlok közül választhatsz egy tápláló brunch keretében. Részvételi hozzájárulás 12.000 Ft / fő Az ár tartalmazza: • a 75 perces, handpan kísérettel vezetett jógaórát • egy teljes, szabadon választott brunch menüt (shot, juice és smoothie vagy smoothie bowl) Jelentkezés A helyek száma korlátozott, ezért előzetes foglalás szükséges.
