The root of this success arguably lies in he combination of highly optimised libraries such as NumPy with Python's ease of use when it comes to combining such libraries. In this talk, we discuss some of the limitations of this approach and we propose an alternative that is based on code generation rather than the combination of hardware-specific libraries. **About Bodo** Bodo is a professor in computer science at Radboud University. His research is driven by the desire to bridge the gap between high-productivity programming tools and high-performance computing on heterogeneous many-core systems by means of compilation / code generation technology. He is a key contributor to the functional data-parallel array programming language SaC (www.sac-home.org).

In this talk, Simon is going to share his experience with influencing stakeholders, where he went from changing types and colours to being trusted to make more strategic decisions for a product. Being his honest self, he is going to reflect on some cases where he learned something, where he failed, and what lessons can be drawn from that, so that you're better equiped to deal with this in your day to day work. **Talk 2:** “The broken coffee machine” [Tim Wouters](https://www.linkedin.com/in/tim-wouters-0521033/), CX strategist & service design lead @ iO Services are intricate systems that are hard to get exactly right for your customers. And what appears to be obvious and simple to solve, often hides surprising complexity. In this talk, we explore together what a boring coffee machine can teach us about customer-centric culture and jumping to conclusions. \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- \#\#\# SCHEDULE 18:00 - Doors open.

## Sandboxed Agents with yoloAI Hello, 世界! For meetup #59 on Tuesday [Apr 28, 2026 19:00 CET](https://www.meetup.com/leipzig-golang/events/312537718/) we are thrilled to welcome back [Karl Stenerud](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kstenerud/), who will be presenting (remote) one of his recent projects: [yoloAI](https://yoloai.dev/): > Run AI coding agents freely in a disposable sandbox. Review exactly what changed. Apply what you want. Some people are aware of the security nightmares that probabilisic language models with full system access may have, but you also need to act on it. > Permission fatigue is a real problem. Sandbox escape is a real problem. yoloAI solves it. The project is written in Go and open source at [kstenerud/yoloai](https://github.com/kstenerud/yoloai), works with various sandbox backends like docker, podman, tart, seabelt - and security modes, using [runc](https://github.com/opencontainers/runc), [gvisor](https://gvisor.dev/), [kata](https://katacontainers.io/), [firecracker](https://firecracker-microvm.github.io/). After looking at a agent memory upgrade system in [#58](https://golangleipzig.space/posts/meetup-58-wrapup/), we continue our exploration of [agentic coding](https://missing.csail.mit.edu/2026/agentic-coding/) and ai assisted software development, which is a rapidly developing field. ### Schedule * 18:45 Doors open * 19:00 Welcome * 19:10 yoloAI (remote presentation) * 20:00 Open discussion We’ll meet: * in person at [Basislager Leipzig](https://basislager.co), at [Peterssteinweg 14, 04107 Leipzig](https://maps.app.goo.gl/1fMkeDSPZ7Aauszh8) ([OSM](https://www.openstreetmap.org/node/3504864558)) * and online via [Google Meet](https://meet.google.com/tgb-juwg-khy) Join us to discuss security, agents, isolation techniques and more.

We are delighted to invite you to our hybrid (virtual and onsite RSVP available) April gathering at [Ojin AixHaus in Mitte](https://ojin.ai/community). We’ll be unpacking the top highlights from Google Cloud Next '26 its 22-24 of April [(register to get virtual spot)](https://www.googlecloudevents.com/next-vegas/) and sharing expert insights on the Agent Development Kit. **The Agenda** * 6:00 pm: Doors open for snacks, drinks, and a bit of a chinwag * 6:45 pm: Kick-off with the Ojin AixHaus crew * 7:00 pm: Google Cloud Next '26: The highlights! * 8:00 pm: [Iliyan Peychev](https://www.linkedin.com/in/iliyanpeychev/): Evolving Cloud Run Apps into Agents with ADK *Agents are here to stay, and Google’s ADK makes building them from scratch more accessible than ever. But in the real world, we rarely start with a blank slate. What if we have battle-tested Cloud Run applications already using Gemini that we need to evolve? How can we get the benefits of the Agentic world without a full rewrite? This session focuses on moving from manual controllers and service orchestration to Multi-Agent systems with Google’s ADK. We will explore the practical "why" and "how" of this architectural shift, along with the real-world caveats and pitfalls.* * 9:00 pm: 🍕🍻 Rooftop Drinks & Networking (with a view!) * 10:00 pm: Doors close **🙏 Thanks & Credits** A massive thank you to **[Ojin AixHaus Community ](https://ojin.ai/community)**crew for letting us in their brilliant space! **Follow Ojin AixHaus on socials: [Instagram ](https://www.instagram.com/ojin.ai/#)[Lin](https://ojin.ai/community)[kedin ](https://www.linkedin.com/showcase/ojin-aixhaus/)[X](https://x.com/Ojin_AI)** We’d love to see you there! ***

**ArnhemJUG** We are excited to announce that we are welcomed by Entrnce for the April meetup. **Agenda** * 17:00 CET walk-in * 17:30 – 18:30 Food and drinks * 18:30 – 19:30 talk: **Better Assertions with AssertJ** by **Tim te Beek** * 19:30 – 19:45 break * 19:45 – 20:45 talk: **Reproducible Builds with Apache Maven** by **Hervé Boutemy** * 20:45 – 21:30 drinks **Better Assertions with AssertJ** Not all testing libraries are equal. Sure they all run your tests, but what happens when they fail? “Expected ‘true’, was ‘false’” won’t help you much. Your choice of library determines whether you can immediately jump to a fix, or first have to debug for more details. And with JUnit 6 and AssertJ 4 around the corner, it's high time for an upgrade! In this talk we'll explore AssertJ, and the fluent assertions API it provides. We'll contrast this to alternatives like JUnit and Hamcrest, and show how subtle differences improve the experience. Now you can finally have unified fluent assertions for all your tests, with a clear path to get there. For existing AssertJ users we will optimize its use to get more expressive assertions and meaningful messages from existing tests. Finally, a quick few OpenRewrite recipes help you apply all these best practices at once, and continuously going forward. **About** **Tim te Beek** Tim te Beek is a staff software engineer at Moderne, which automates software refactoring at scale. He has extensive experience contributing to and presenting on Open Source software within the Java ecosystem. Previously he worked as a consultant specializing in migration engineering and developer productivity. **Reproducible Builds with Apache Maven** Reproducible Builds is listed as a requirement for SLSA security Level 4, to achieve the highest level of confidence and trust in software. Such a level seems far away from achievable practice for normal humans. In reality, most Linux distributions implemented it over the last 10 years. And in the past 6 years, this practice is being extended to Java Open Source projects with great success: more than 6,200 releases from 800 Open Source projects published to Maven Central are publicly proven reproducible (and counting). In this session, we'll demystify Reproducible Builds for Java based on the experience gained while rebuilding these Open Source projects. We'll dig into the tools to improve your Maven builds and check the effective results: the journey is full of great learnings that go far beyond advanced security. **About Hervé Boutemy** Hervé started with Java when it was in beta, built his first Java projects with Make (yes) then Ant: but life changed with Maven 1... Life changed even more when growing from OSS user during working day to becoming an active OSS contributor to Maven 2 during nights and week-ends. Today, Hervé works as Solutions Architect for Sonatype on next steps of the build journey, promoting best-practices around Software Supply Chains. On the OSS front, Hervé is an Apache Software Foundation member and Apache Maven PMC Chair. He's also involved in many advanced projects like CycloneDX, SPDX, sigstore, and Reproducible Builds.

'CONVENIENCE STORE WOMAN' by Sayaka Murata 'Keiko Furukura had always been considered a strange child, and her parents always worried how she would get on in the real world, so when she takes on a job in a convenience store while at university, they are delighted for her. For her part, in the convenience store she finds a predictable world mandated by the store manual, which dictates how the workers should act and what they should say, and she copies her coworkers' style of dress and speech patterns so that she can play the part of a normal person. However, eighteen years later, at age 36, she is still in the same job, has never had a boyfriend, and has only few friends. She feels comfortable in her life, but is aware that she is not living up to society's expectations and causing her family to worry about her. When a similarly alienated but cynical and bitter young man comes to work in the store, he will upset Keiko's contented stasis--but will it be for the better? Sayaka Murata brilliantly captures the atmosphere of the familiar convenience store that is so much part of life in Japan. With some laugh-out-loud moments prompted by the disconnect between Keiko's thoughts and those of the people around her, she provides a sharp look at Japanese society and the pressure to conform, as well as penetrating insights into the female mind. Convenience Store Woman is a fresh, charming portrait of an unforgettable heroine that recalls Banana Yoshimoto, Han Kang, and Amélie.' ***Please read the book and join us for a lively discussion (in English) about the contents during our afternoon book club meeting.*** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **PLEASE NOTE:** This is an IN-PERSON event in Amersfoort, The Netherlands.

We invite you to an in-person session in Seattle exploring the real impact of AI on knowledge-driven industries — from shifting economics and the disruption of traditional SaaS and consulting models to where organizations can still build lasting competitive advantage. As AI platforms like ChatGPT, Claude, and Gemini continue to redefine how work gets done, organizations face a critical question: how can they adapt, remain competitive, and create lasting value?

Bring your Raspberry Pi, Arduino, microcontroller, or any other electronic project and join fellow electronics makers for a night of creativity and collaboration! This session is open forum to share your current projects—whether complete or in progress, it’s all interesting! Whether you’re deep into embedded systems, exploring new ideas, or just getting started, you’ll find a welcoming space to collaborate, share, and get inspired. **New to electronics or curious about tinkering?** You’re absolutely welcome. If you’re a beginner and want to experiment, I’ll have a couple of starter kits available so you can try things out—whether that’s blinking your first LED, putting something on a display, or experimenting with simple sensors. No pressure and no experience required—just an interest in learning and building. While we continue to pursue a more permanent venue for this Meetup, we’ll be using public library facilities based on availability. This session will be at the Worthington Park Library in the Olentangy Meeting Room.
