NOTE THE TIME CHANGE TO 9AM Hi All, Come and join us for social running and a coffee! We meet at the main gate of Vystaviste - tram stop Vystaviste Holesovice. We will run in Stromovka. Usually we run around 50mins and it is up to everyone how many kilometres. We welcome all levels of runner. We can all run together or, if there is more of us, we can split into groups and at the end of the run we all meet close to the starting point to go for a coffee to a nice local coffee place (where they also sell cakes and great chocolate). If the weather is great, we can also just sit in one of the outside coffee placces in Stromovka and enjoy the sun. This is where we meet: http://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/7/7/3/1/600_447930513.jpeg

On Saturday, 13th of June, we’re going to meet and discuss the essay by Bertrand Russel, *A Free Man’s Worship*. First published in 1903, it remains one of Russell’s best-known and most reprinted essay. In the essay, Russell reflects on the human condition, with its beauty and sorrow. As an atheist, he asks whether a meaningful life is possible without religion and whether we can find purpose in a universe that seems indifferent to us. If life is brief and suffering unavoidable, what should we live for? What ideals should guide us? Let’s discuss! Bertrand Russell (1872–1970) was a British philosopher, logician, mathematician, and public intellectual, widely regarded as one of the most influential thinkers of the twentieth century. He received the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1950 for his writings in defence of humanitarian ideals and freedom of thought. *** Anyone is welcome to join! No background in philosophy is needed. Before the meeting, please read the essay (it’s only 6 pages long), think about it, and note any passages you find especially interesting, challenging, or worth discussing. We’ll share our thoughts and interpretations during the meeting. Organizational notes: 📍 Attendance is free ⏳ Spots are limited 🔗 Please register via the app so we know how many people to expect and can reserve a table accordingly *** Some questions to contemplate: * Can people accept that the universe may have no inherent meaning without falling into nihilism? * Is everyone capable of this? What qualities might it require? How should we think about those who are not? * Do people need religion to live meaningful lives, or can meaning be found elsewhere? Dostoevsky, for example in *Demons*, doubted that anything good could come from atheism – was he right? * Which values does Russell consider worth admiring? What values do you personally see as ultimate or worth ‘worshipping’? * What roles do Nature, Fate, and Time play in Russell’s worldview? * What does modern society present as ultimate values – beauty, success, power, status, comfort? Do these provide meaning? * What role should the state play in shaping values? When can it do too much – and when too little? * How do you personally deal with nihilism or existential dread? Do you experience it at all?

Welcome to the international Café Philo in Prague. We meet every first Saturday of the month in the cosy [Café Millème](https://store11473398.ecwid.com) in the center of Prague. We choose a participant randomly, by lottery, who then has the privilege to determine the topic of our discussion. We will reflect, ponder and exchange arguments until our brains are on fire. Philosophy isn't just something for universities, it is a way to open your mind to new thoughts and questions. No application is necessary, there is no entrance fee and there are no prerequisites for participating, except curiosity and respect for other people. We meet from 17:15 until 18:45 to follow together the white rabbit into the wonderland of philosophy... More information about me under this [link](https://sophonautik.ch/english/).

Over a billion documents processed. Millions of Veterans impacted. Hundreds of thousands of employee hours saved. Faster decisions. Greater accuracy. More benefits in the hands of our disabled Veterans. We created Smart Search, the world’s largest consumer of Amazon Textract, right when GenAI began reshaping what’s possible. Since then, we’ve built a suite of AI‑driven solutions that transform this data into real, measurable outcomes—accelerating benefits decisions for our Nation’s Veterans. Join us for a focused conversation on how an outcome‑driven approach to AI is helping us boost accuracy, streamline workflows, and deliver faster results for those who have served.

Join the Columbus AI community for a special event. **Battle of the Personal Agents** is your chance to see what people are actually building with AI agents and personal automation systems. Whether you’re running OpenClaw, Hermes, or a completely custom solution, bring your agent and show the community how it works. We’re interested in real-world implementations: the problems your agent solves, how you use it day-to-day, how it’s hosted and managed, how you built it, and why you’ve chosen to keep using it. Live demonstrations are encouraged, so be prepared to show your code, architecture, workflows, and your agent performing real tasks. This is less about polished presentations and more about sharing practical experience, comparing approaches, and learning from one another. If you’d like to present, please contact Chris Slee (via meetup) before the event so we can allocate enough time for everyone’s demonstrations. Come ready to show what you’ve built, discover what others are doing, and maybe find a few ideas worth taking home. Whether you’re deep in the field or just getting curious, come connect with others building and exploring AI in Columbus.
