📚 Silent Reading & Socialising 🍺
## Details
The title of the event is a paradox! Read in silence and then discuss with like-minded folks! :-)
📝 **How does this work?**
We will meet in the Bartley's Restaurant area from 7:00 PM to 8:00 PM for silent reading and followed up by one hour discussion. **During silent reading, you're expected to remain silent and read.** Please bring your headphones and refrain from the discussion during the first one hour in the area.
👥 **Socialising**
After an hour, at 8:00 PM, we'll discuss and socialize about the book you're reading. We highly encourage you to move between tables and strike up conversations with fellow book lovers. These discussions about literature and reading recommendations are often the highlight of the event!
Feel free to join at any point during the event.
The event is indoors, hopefully, we can continue the tradition of the silent reading in the winter!
**📌 Helpful Tips and Notes**
* Bring headphones to block out surrounding noise
* I will post a comment on the event page when I arrive to indicate where we're seated, so everyone can find us
* If you prefer to skip the silent reading, you can join directly at the bar at 8:00 PM
⚠️**Something Happened?**
If something unpleasant happened to you, it may happen to others. It may be small but don't hesitate to reach out to me.
Looking forward to meeting you all 😊
Music Makers Wednesday nights in the BRIAN BORU ( Hedigans )
We are adding a few sing along songs to our Wednesdays session. You will still get the opportunity to sing as usual we are just adding some sing along songs to add something new to the session.
Fields of Athenry. D
Knocking on Heavens door D
Ob La Di Ob La Da ( Beatles) A
Go your own way C
Join us for a lovely evening of music and song in a relaxed, supportive space. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, all levels of musicians and singers are very welcome.
Performers: Space is limited to 10
performers to ensure everyone gets their time in the spotlight. Please secure your spot by booking through the app!
Listeners: If performance spots are full, we’d still love for you to come along, listen, and soak up the atmosphere. It’s a wonderful way to build confidence and get a feel for the session.
The Details: There is a small €2 kitty fee. As the venue hosts us for free, we kindly ask that you support the bar by purchasing a drink or two.
A Note on Parking:
The car park directly outside is convenient but strictly monitored, so please double-check the rates to avoid a €125 unclamping fee! For a stress-free evening, there are several other parking options within a 5-minute walk, including the Tesco car park (which is usually free after 6:30 PM, but do check the signs!).

MUG <> GitTogether Meetup: AI Dev Tools
In collaboration with Gittogether Dublin 🤝
The AI DevTools revolution is here, and it's time to separate the signal from the noise! Join Dublin MUG (MongoDB User Group) and
GitTogether Dublin for a hands-on technical deep dive - evening exploring the AI-powered tools that are reshaping how we build software.
Whether you're already using AI coding assistants daily, curious about integrating AI into your development workflow, or want to connect with other developers navigating this space, this meetup is for you!
We aren't just looking at autocomplete; we would be exploring the entire Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC). We'll map out the best tools from the landscape and show you how to build a developer environment where your AI agent actually understands your data.
**🛠️ What we're building:**
SDLC Mapping: We'll start by categorizing the "chaos"—mapping AI tools to the SDLC (Coding, Testing, Docs, and Ops).
The Agent Workshop: A hands-on setup of a GitHub Copilot Agent using the Model Context Protocol (MCP). We'll get everyone's
environment "Agent-ready."
Workshop: GitHub: https://github.com/skills/integrate-mcp-with-copilot
The Data Connection: We'll hook that agent into the MongoDB MCP Server. You'll see how Copilot can explore schemas, write aggregation pipelines, and query Atlas directly from your natural language prompts.
Workshop: https://github.com/SANTANNA001/MongoDB-MCP-Config/blob/main/MongoDB_MCP_Copilot_Steps.md
Performance & Optimization: A showcase of the "essential" stack—MongoDB Compass AI Chat, the VS Code MCP bridge, and using AI to
solve real-world performance bottlenecks.

Data Pipelines at the Advanced Photon Source
**Abstract:** The Advanced Photon Source (APS) is an X-ray light source at Argonne National Laboratory where researchers perform imaging, diffraction and spectroscopy experiments at 68 specialized beamlines. APS recently completed a major upgrade that made it the brightest synchrotron in the world and upgraded many of the beamlines to take advantage of the dramatically brighter, more coherent beam. These new capabilities are increasing the facility’s raw data production from <10 PB/year before the upgrade to >100 PB/year once all instruments are back online. To meet this data challenge, the APS Beamline Data Pipeline project team is partnering with beamline staff to develop and deploy science data pipelines that use a common set of open-source software tools (many written in Python) to link instruments with the Polaris supercomputer at the Argonne Leadership Computing Facility (ALCF) for data processing. This talk will describe the APS data systems, our file-based and streaming pipeline templates, and some of the open-source software we use to extract scientific insights from beamline data.
**Audience Takeaway:** Open source Python data acquisition and analysis tools are ubiquitous at the APS. Many of the packages that are mentioned can be found at [https://github.com/AdvancedPhotonSource](https://github.com/AdvancedPhotonSource).
This is a *hybrid* event. To attend online, join us on Zoom here at 6pm:
[https://numfocus-org.zoom.us/j/89399976851?pwd=UEgMUZXdYmKdK1x1dIPL6hwUYnp7NW.1](https://numfocus-org.zoom.us/j/89399976851?pwd=UEgMUZXdYmKdK1x1dIPL6hwUYnp7NW.1)
**Sponsor**: Grainger will provide the meeting site, as well as snacks for the onsite participants.
* **Address:** 222 W Merchandise Mart Plaza, 18th Floor, Chicago, IL 60654
* **Grainger's Overview:** W.W. Grainger, Inc., is a leading broadline distributor with over $17 billion in revenue. At Grainger, We Keep the World Working® by serving more than 4.5 million customers worldwide with maintenance, repair, and operating (MRO) products and services delivered through innovative technology and deep customer relationships. Our machine learning team builds broadly across search, recommendations, product matching, computer vision, and generative AI.

Casual Boardgames - make friends, then beat them in games
Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations.
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that.
We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus.
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn.
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play.
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders…
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords…
IMPORTANT:
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for.
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.
NFT AI ART Columbus
NFT's are here to stay folks!
This is a group for like minded people interested in understanding, leveraging, using, creating for, profiting from, trading too i suppose, NFT's.. everything around them, complexity, fear and exploits, best practices and more.
**PLUS**
This group will talk AI ART tools, techniques, artists, video, audio, prototypes and more in the AI assisted production space- ART specifically, but we can get into any aspect of some of the cooler things happening in AI in general.

Lonnie Morgan will be presenting information about the DLT Library.
"The Python library `dlt` provides a powerful [REST API toolkit](https://dlthub.com/docs/dlt-ecosystem/verified-sources/rest_api/basic) to ingest data. Combined with our [LLM scaffolds](https://dlthub.com/workspace) and [MCP server](https://dlthub.com/docs/hub/features/mcp-server), you can build a custom connector for any of the 8k+ available sources in 10 minutes by following this guide. Building with LLMs is an iterative process. We will follow this general workflow and give practical tips for each step."
