**Solve crimes. Sip wine. Make friends.** A murder, a vineyard, and too much wine… what could possibly go wrong? Step into a world of secrets and laughter at our first Whodunit interactive evening. You’ll become one of the guests at a wine tasting event but when the host suddenly drops dead, it’s up to everyone to uncover the killer among you. Language: English Players: 6–10 (no acting experience needed) Duration: 2–2.5 hours Location: A cozy wine bar in central Budapest (final venue shared after reservation) You’ll receive a character role, hidden secrets, and clues to help you solve the case - all while enjoying good company, good wine, and a night full of surprises. The experience is tip-based, but drinks are purchased separately. Feel free to enjoy as much (or as little) wine as you like. See you there! :)

Practice Buddhist meditation in the middle of Budapest! The meditation is suitable for beginners. Each regular meditation is guided and begins with a short introduction. (all together is about 30-40 minutes) Our regular Buddhist meditations have proven popular with people who want to integrate authentic Buddhist methods into their daily lives. For the modern lay person who is juggling work, relationships, and an active role in society, we teach a meditation that is easy to learn, and profound and powerful for experienced practitioners. The meditation originates from the Karma Kagyu tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. It has a cumulative effect on mind, leading to greater clarity and calmness. Fearlessness, joy, and active compassion are the result of regular practice of Buddhist meditation. * Do I need any special clothing? No special clothing needed. * Does the attendance cost anything? No, the meditation is free.

Foundation models are leaving the cloud — and entering the physical world. Robotics is quietly becoming the next global ecosystem. Open-source foundation models. End-to-end learning. Industrial-grade reliability. And radically new ways of building robotic bodies. This meetup is special because we’re not just talking theory. We’re bringing together speakers from: • **Hugging Face** — powering one of the world’s leading open AI ecosystems, now expanding into open-source robotics • **mimic robotics** — building scalable, real-world robotic manipulation systems for industrial deployment • **Allonic** — reinventing how robotic bodies are manufactured through its 3D Tissue Braiding technology, recently raised €6M in pre-seed funding — the largest hardware pre-seed round in Hungary to date This event is powered by **ShareTech Foundation** — a non-profit initiative building bridges between frontier technology, industry, and the European tech ecosystem. This event venue is provided by **Tulip Interfaces** a manufacturing app platform empowering frontline teams with digital tools and real-time data. *** ** Date & Time:** March 5. 2026, 17:30 ** Location:** Tulip Interfaces Office - Budapest, Köztelek u. 6, 1092 *** ** The Talks** *** **Dana Aubakirova** ML Research Engineer — Hugging Face **Open-Source Robotics: Bringing Foundation Models to Real Robots** From Vision–Language–Action models to real robotic deployment. Dana will walk us through: * How foundation models are reshaping robotics * Multimodal pretraining and scaling trends * SmolVLA and the LeRobot open-source ecosystem * Community-driven robot data collection * What still blocks large-scale embodied AI If you care about open-source AI moving into the physical world — this one’s for you. *** **Benedek Forrai** Co-Founder & Lead Roboticist — mimic robotics **Systems as Moat — Bringing Reliability into End-to-End Learning** End-to-end learning is exciting. Industrial reliability is harder. Benedek shares: * VLA → VAM evolution * Scaling pretraining without massive robot datasets * Architectural bottlenecks in current pipelines * Why system design becomes the true competitive moat This is where research meets customer-grade deployment. *** **Benedek Tasi** Founder & CEO — Allonic **Complexity in Robotic Bodies — And Making Them Simple Enough for Mass Production** As robot intelligence scales, hardware complexity explodes. Allonic introduces **3D Tissue Braiding** — a radically new way of “growing” robotic bodies in a single integrated process. We’ll explore: * Bio-inspired robotic connective structures * Reducing hundreds of parts into unified builds * Manufacturing scalability for the next robotics wave This is how you build robots that can actually scale. *** ** Agenda** 17:30 — Arrival & welcome 18:00 — Talks 20:00 — Community networking 21:00 — Wrap-up ** Why You Should Come** Because robotics is no longer sci-fi. It’s becoming infrastructure. And the next big shift in AI will be embodied.

From the earliest moments of human reflection, people have asked a question as simple as it is profound: **Why are we here?** "*The unexamined life is not worth living,*" Socrates The search for the meaning of life is not merely an abstract puzzle; it is woven into our choices, our values, and the way we understand happiness, suffering, and purpose. In ancient Athens, Socrates suggested that a meaningful life begins with examination, placing self-knowledge at the center of human existence. For Socrates, meaning was not something handed to us but something discovered **through dialogue, questioning, and moral awareness**. Aristotle later offered a different but complementary vision. He proposed that the purpose of human life is eudaimonia, often translated as **flourishing**. According to Aristotle, meaning is found not in fleeting pleasure but in living virtuously, developing our capacities, and contributing to the life of the community. A meaningful life, in his view, is one lived in accordance with reason, balance, and excellence of character. Modern philosophy introduced a more unsettling perspective. Jean-Paul Sartre argued that human beings are “condemned to be free.” There is no predetermined purpose, no universal script that defines our existence. Instead, meaning emerges from **our choices**. We create who we are through action, and with that freedom comes responsibility. Meaning, then, is not discovered but constructed. Simone de Beauvoir extended this existential insight by emphasizing that meaning is not created in isolation. Human freedom exists in relation to others. To live meaningfully is to recognize both one’s own freedom and the freedom of others, and to engage in projects that affirm shared humanity. For de Beauvoir, meaning involves responsibility, connection, and the ethical use of freedom in a world that offers no fixed answers. Across these perspectives, a fascinating tension emerges. *Is meaning something we discover, cultivate, or create?* Is it rooted in virtue, happiness, responsibility, relationships, or purpose? Perhaps the enduring power of this question lies precisely in the fact that no single answer has ever satisfied everyone. Today, the question remains open, inviting each generation to respond in its own way. Philosophy offers frameworks, science offers explanations, culture offers narratives—but ultimately the question turns toward each of us personally. So as we begin this seminar, we return to the question that has echoed across centuries of thought and experience: **What is the meaning of life to you?** **BIO**: Georgiana Turculet is a multidisciplinary philosopher and two-time Marie Curie fellow. She holds a PhD from Central European University and has held academic positions at several European institutions, including the Department of Philosophy at Pompeu Fabra University and the Department of Philosophy at University of Copenhagen If the Paypal system is not working for any reason, don't worry, you can make a contribution on location, which helps us to pay for the meetup service and to keep the event going.

Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) With Digital Currency they can: Have a complete government dossier on every detail of your life. Use your purchase history to maintain a detailed social credit score for every person. Provide tax breaks to corporations who hire people with admirable social credit scores. Only grant government contracts to corporations with employees with admirable social credit scores. Adjust health insurance premiums to incentivize people to develop admirable social credit scores. Connect your social credit score with a digital ID to encourage you to look at only approved web sites when surfing the internet. Viewing conspiracy web sites could lower your Social Credit Score and make it difficult to get a job. With their electronic chain around your neck, they can control where, when, how you travel, what food you are allowed to buy etc. They will love the power to only allow you to use your digital money only where they want you to shop and allow you to buy only what they prefer you to buy. Require you to have to have a license to use your money. They will call it a Digital Currency License. Require you to take any vaccine they want you to take to maintain your digital currency license. Tax you in ways we have not even imagined. Adjust your income tax rate based on your social credit score. Use AI to increase your income tax rate if you eat too many hamburgers because they will tell you eating too many hamburgers will increase global warming. This is just one example of many behaviors they might not approve of. Adjust individual prices for different individuals. They will be able to make you pay more per pound for hamburger if you purchased too much red meat during the past 30 days. Require you to buy so many pounds of soy burger for every pound of hamburger to save the planet and increase the profits for the soy burger manufacturers. Turn off the digital money of people they consider to be spreading misinformation. Turn off the digital money of people they consider to be dangerous conspiracy theorists. Turn off your money at 8 PM if they want a curfew at 8 PM Turn off your money in another state if they do not want you to drive to another state without permission. Turn off your money when buying guns or ammo if they do not want you to buy guns or ammo. Turn off your digital money more than three miles away from your home if they want you to stay within three miles of your home during the next epidemic. Etc. etc. etc. From the standpoint of the government, one beauty of digital money is that your money is one “state emergency” away from being the government’s money. All they have to do is to take your digital money out of your Central Bank Digital Account for the “good of all”. It is not as easy for them to do this with physical cash, gold, stocks, or silver etc. Anything they **can** do, they will do. The essence of slavery is control. Digital Currency will enable them to make you, their slave. (in a global digital concentration camp). .

**Agenda:** * 6-6:30 pm: Networking and food/drinks * 6:30-7:15 pm: Announcements and presentation * 7:15 pm-7:30 pm: Q&A and close-out **Hacking the Stack: Using OpenSearch Dashboards as an Application Framework** Most developers treat OpenSearch Dashboards (OSD) strictly as a visualization layer—a place for charts and graphs. They are missing the bigger picture. OSD is a powerful, untapped environment for full-stack application development. In this session, we peel back the architecture of **an enterprise-grade risk, compliance, and security platform built entirely *on top of* OSD**. We moved beyond simple plugins and pushed OSD to its limits to create a seamless, interactive application experience. Join us for a deep dive into the engineering reality of the OpenSearch stack, including: * **The Analysis:** Why the OpenSearch stack beat out the competition. * **The Build,** **Beyond Visualization:** How to implement custom React components to build complex workflows and interactive UIs within OSD. * **The Integrations:** Integrating Wazuh for agent management and ingesting data at scale. * **The “Gotchas”:** Honest, real-world lessons on data handling, state management, and what to look out for. **If you are ready to push your plugins from “reporting tools” to “robust software,” do not miss this session!**
