WilCo Food Tours - every month we'll eat dinner at a highly recommended restaurant. Join us for some delicious food and good conversation while we explore Central Texas cuisine. This month's stop on the WilCo Food Tour is 四姐 Special Noodle with a unique cooking technique that has customers fascinated. In early 2022, the owner personally developed a special noodle dish that involves cooking the noodles and broth on high-temperature natural cobblestones in the pot. This causes the broth to immediately boil and creates a remarkable sight for customers to witness. The high-temperature cobblestones also ensure that the noodles and soup remain hot for a longer period of time, providing a more enjoyable dining experience.

**Love a heavy game? Sign up now for our quarterly(ish) Heavy/Economic Games event on Saturday, June 6 at Milwood!** We'll start at **noon** and play till the library closes (well, actually till **4:45**), so about five hours. *** We’ve been asked: What makes a “heavy” game? * The rules might be more complex or “meaty” * The teach will probably take 30 minutes or more * The game will likely take up a lot of table space * There might be different powers/incentives for different player roles (asymmetric) * You might be competing with others and yet sharing resources with them * It’s a safe bet that the game will run an hour or more longer than your average mid-weight game In return, you’ll find: * a richer game experience * a more brain-burny puzzle to figure out * a deeper set of interlocking levers to pull and see what happens * bigger and better combos to plan and execute * (speaking for myself) we heavy gamers love to bling out our games, so expect high-quality bits and striking graphic design * some memorable gaming! A lot of heavy games are very rich in theme—current, historical, or fictional—in a way that can help new players make sense of the rules. It’s very typical to be confused as hell after the teach, but go “ohh, I see how it works” after just a turn or two. Economic games are usually also easy to relate to real-world concepts. The player with the most money at the end of the game wins—that’s as easy to understand as a victory condition can be, right? Supply and demand, comparing costs vs. benefits, investing/borrowing now for future returns—if you understand stuff like that, you can play an economic. *If this all sounds terrible and not fun… it’s not right for everyone, and that’s okay!* Our next “regular” meetup is June 20, also at Milwood, and we’ll be happy to see you there. But if you love heavy games or if you’re new to heavy games and a little intrigued, come join us on June 6. P.S. Please, no food in the meeting room—so be sure to grab lunch before you arrive. We don't want you to be hangry! Beverages in spill-proof containers are fine.

Mark your calendars for the next Standard Social Meetup for poodles and doodles.

**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose** Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap. Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn: * Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge * How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change * Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction * How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work. **About Our Speaker** [Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.

Extensions allow developers to customize the editor with new features, integrations, and workflow improvements tailored to their needs. In this session, we’ll cover what extensions are and the different types available, including full extensions written in TypeScript or JavaScript, along with lighter-weight extensions such as color themes, language packs, language support, code snippets, and keymaps. We’ll also look at practical reasons a developer might create an extension, from automating repetitive tasks to adding custom tooling. The session includes a hands-on walkthrough of creating a new extension, testing it locally, and understanding the basic project structure. We’ll close with a brief overview of how extensions are packaged and published to the Visual Studio Marketplace and other distribution options. **YouTube Link** TBD
