**Haluatko oppia puhumaan selkeämmin, itsevarmemmin – ja vähän vähemmällä jännityksellä?** **Stadin Sanasepät** on suomenkielinen puhe- ja esiintymistaitojen treenikenttä, jossa opitaan puhumalla – ei istumalla passiivisena luennoilla. Meillä esiintytään, mokaillaan, pitchataan ja kehitytään turvallisessa ja kannustavassa ilmapiirissä. Tämä on hyvä paikka, jos haluat esimerkiksi: – saada itsevarmuutta esiintymiseen – sanoittaa omaa ajatustasi napakammin – treenata tulevaa työpaikan esitystä varten – kehittyä palautteen antajana (ja vastaanottajana!) – tai vaan oppia puhumaan ihmisille niin, että ne kuuntelee Saat oman mentorin, pääsyn kansainväliseen Toastmasters-materiaaliin – ja ennen kaikkea porukan, joka tsemppaa ja kulkee mukana. Vieraileminen on maksutonta eikä ennakkoilmoittautumista tarvita. Tule testaamaan, miltä tuntuu puhua yleisön edessä. Ei tarvitse olla valmis – kunhan haluat oppia.

Seeing clearly does not automatically end unuseful habits, emotional or ways of thinking that create distress. It changes how we meet them. In this session, we explore why insight alone is not enough and how practice continues in the midst of these patterns and how to have a new relationship with it. This offers a mature and grounded understanding of the path.

Bitcoin meetup - meet the local bitcoiners, network, present your projects and ideas or just hang out! Topics include everything that remotely touches Bitcoin.

A philosophy meetup on freedom, necessity, and responsibility Is everything that happens inevitable? If our actions are determined by prior causes—biology, upbringing, laws of nature—what becomes of free will, moral responsibility, praise and blame? And if determinism is true, should we be afraid of it at all? In this meetup we’ll tackle determinism from multiple angles: Hard determinism: if determinism is true, free will is an illusion. Libertarianism: genuine freedom requires indeterminism. Compatibilism: freedom and determinism can coexist. We’ll discuss classic thought experiments (Frankfurt cases, Laplace’s demon), contemporary worries about agency and accountability, and the existential stakes: guilt, meaning, and self-understanding in a determined world. Format: A short introduction to frame the problem, followed by guided small-group discussion and a plenary debate. No prior expertise required—come curious, skeptical, or ready to defend a position (even one you don’t fully believe). Guiding questions: If determinism is true, could you have done otherwise? Do responsibility and punishment still make sense? Is fear of determinism philosophical—or psychological? Which view actually fits our lived experience? All are welcome. Bring your arguments—and your anxieties. **Description by ChatGPT**

**Welcome to Sketchy Collective!** A relaxed and social drawing group for anyone who enjoys sketching — or just wants to give it a try. \*\*\* We meet **every Sunday at 15:00** in **Oodi Library**. \*\*\* **HOW TO FIND US** We meet on the **top floor of Oodi Library**, on the stairs **opposite** the children’s area. It's a good idea to **keep your sketchbook visible** so others can easily recognize that you're there for the sketching meetup. And if you’re a regular participant, making it clear that you're part of the sketching group can be very helpful for newcomers! \*\*\* **HOW IT WORKS** At each meetup, attendees take turns being the model for a quick **10-minute sketch session**. One person poses, everyone else sketches, then we rotate. \*\*\* **WHAT TO BRING** Pencils and paper (or any sketching tools you like). No fees, no pressure. The only thing we ask is that everyone takes a turn posing for the group. You can sit however you feel comfortable — the 10 minutes go by quickly! Draw as much as you like, skip a round if you’re tired or just want to chat, and leave whenever it suits you. The event continues as long as there’s interest. \*\*\* **STAYING CONNECTED** Due to issues with spam and advertising, the group has decided that **only people who have attended at least one meetup will be accepted into the WhatsApp group**. To be added, please ask other participants at the meetup — a few members have permission to approve new people, and at least one of them will likely be present. \*\*\* **SOCIAL MEDIA** If you’d like to share your drawings from the meetup, you can send them via message on Facebook or Instagram, or use the Instagram collab function. We warmly encourage everyone to share their work and take part in building our international sketching gallery — together with artists from all the cities where Sketchy Collective meetups are organized. \*\*\* **SUPPORT** Meetups are always free, but if you’d like to chip in for the cost of the Meetup.com subscription and future events in Helsinki (plein airs, exhibitions, etc.), you can use: https://buymeacoffee.com/sketchy.collective

**On this solemn day, we gather to mourn the fading state of free speech.** **CONCEPT:** **The alarm bells of the 1930s are ringing again.** Many of us are coming to a troubling realization: freedom of expression is under pressure across the world. In countries that call themselves defenders of democracy, and in those that openly reject it, speech is increasingly regulated, restricted, or punished. As *The Washington Post* — owned by Jeff Bezos — says, *“Democracy dies in darkness.”* Let each of us be a candle that keeps the light alive. *** **DISCUSSION HOMEWORK (For a more nuanced conversation — recommended but not required):** 1. Government actions toward TikTok in the United States — bans, forced sale discussions, and national security debates 2. Consolidation and mergers in media corporations * Skydance Media & Paramount Global (U.S.) * NDTV ownership changes (India) 3. Arrests or disciplinary actions involving university students and journalists related to campus publications or protest reporting 4. Arrests of peaceful protestors in the UK under public order laws 5. Suppression of protest movements in Iran 6. Cases involving the killing or detention of journalists in conflict zones and authoritarian states 7. Media censorship, platform moderation, and speech regulation worldwide **And Most Importantly** 8. The censoring of AI. The real life example are the 7 points mentioned above which were written originally by me and then put on Chat GPT which basically removed the names of several countries i. e. Saudi Arabia and Israel. AI generalised the language. To see the original language come to our event! You are welcome to come, listen, question, and learn. *** **PROGRAM STRUCTURE** 1. Why are you here? — Your farewell message to free speech 2. Who — or what — is responsible for the decline of free expression? 3. What can we do to protect and strengthen it? *** **GROUND RULES** * No bad-faith arguments * No misinformation or unsupported claims * Respectful disagreement is welcome * Evidence beats slogans *** **LOCATION** To be decided — somewhere in Helsinki.

**People Analytics 101: Making Sense of Compensation Data** Compensation data is one of the most widely used and widely misunderstood forms of people analytics. The session will cover where compensation data comes from, including market pricing data, internal payroll data, and benchmarking sources, and how companies think about structuring and analyzing that information. We will explore how compensation data is leveraged to set salary ranges, manage internal equity, support hiring and retention, and align pay with business strategy. A portion of the session will address common data challenges and limitations, such as market noise, inconsistent job matching, and incomplete datasets, while keeping the primary focus on practical use rather than technical depth. The session will also look ahead at where the space is going, including the growing impact of pay transparency laws, expanding pay equity requirements, and emerging regulations in the US and Europe that require organizations to report on gender and pay gaps. The goal is to give attendees a clear mental model for how compensation analytics works today and why getting it right is becoming increasingly critical. (note: we are back at Rev1 this month!) **About Our Speaker** [Alex Moore](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexscottmoore/) is the founder of [Moore Cooperative](https://moorecooperative.com/), where he advises organizations on compensation strategy, pay equity, and people analytics. His work focuses on helping organizations like the Ohio Supreme Court design, analyze, and communicate compensation systems that are data-informed, defensible, and aligned with organizational goals. Alex lives in Granville, Ohio and has three little kiddos. More info at [cbusdaw.com](https://cbusdaw.com)

Dale Gnidovec, Curator of the Orton Hall Museum of Geology at The Ohio State University, will be presenting a program he has wanted to share with us for a long time: Plate Tectonics. His description of his program: Continents on the move - Nothing in Earth history makes sense without moving continents - it tells us why mountains, volcanoes, minerals, and fossils are where they are. This talk examines the evidence for continental drift, why it was disbelieved, and explains how the more-encompassing theory of plate tectonics was developed and eventually proven. Dale is an energetic, incredibly knowledgeable, and very entertaining speaker and this will be another wonderful program by Dale. Hope to see you there! 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. You can meet us in-person or attend online Join Zoom Meeting [https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1](https://us02web.zoom.us/j/87836564953?pwd=4Mi57ElZkDIFlb1fnlNwOJ0NiOK4tP.1) Meeting ID: 878 3656 4953 Passcode: 760812 One tap mobile +19292056099,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (New York) +13017158592,,87836564953#,,,,\*760812# US (Washington DC) The formal presentation will start at noon
