**BODY–MIND-RESET** Ein intensives Gemeinschaftserlebnis für Lebendigkeit, Verbindung und innere Klarheit Du funktionierst. Du leistest. Du bist stark. Und trotzdem spürst du: Etwas in dir ist angespannt. Gedämpft. Zurückgehalten. Nicht ganz frei. Nicht, weil etwas falsch mit dir ist - sondern weil dein Nervensystem seit zu langer Zeit im Dauerbetrieb läuft. Body-Mind-Reset ist kein Workshop. Es ist ein Raum, in dem dein System loslassen darf. **🔥 Was dich erwartet** Ein strukturierter, sicher gehaltener Erfahrungsraum, der dich Schritt für Schritt aus dem Kopf zurück in den Körper bringt. Wir arbeiten nicht primär mit Gesprächen - sondern mit Erfahrung. **Der Kern der Session** 🫁 Breathwork: * intensive Aktivierung und Entladung von aufgestauter Energie * emotionales und körperliches Loslassen * tiefer Zugang zu dir selbst * natürliche Nervensystem-Regulation 🌙 Integration - geführte Tiefenentspannung/Meditationsreise: * dein System darf sich neu ordnen * tiefe Ruhe statt Erschöpfung * Klarheit statt Chaos 💥 Bewegung und Primal Energy: * raus aus Kontrolle und Anpassung * rein in Spüren, Kraft und Lebendigkeit 🤝 Bewusst gehaltene Gemeinschaft: * echte Verbindung ohne Small Talk * getragen sein, ohne etwas leisten zu müssen **💎 Warum Menschen danach verändert nach Hause gehen** Viele berichten nach solchen Erfahrungen: ✔ Ich fühle mich wieder in meinem Körper zuhause ✔ Mein Kopf ist ruhig - ohne dass ich mich betäube ✔ Ich fühle mich lebendig, warm und klar zugleich ✔ Spannungen haben sich gelöst, ohne dass ich „arbeiten“ musste ✔ Ich habe echte Verbindung erlebt ✔ Ich habe mich wieder als Mensch gefühlt - nicht nur als Funktion **⚡ Für wen dieser Raum ist** Für Menschen, die: * viel tragen und funktionieren * sich nach Intensität und echter Erfahrung sehnen * ihren Körper wieder spüren wollen * emotional offen sind, aber kein Drama suchen * Verbindung wollen ohne Oberflächlichkeit * bereit sind, Kontrolle zeitweise loszulassen Du brauchst keine Vorerfahrung. Nur die Bereitschaft, dir selbst zu begegnen. **🚫 Für wen es NICHT ist** Nicht für reine Neugier ohne innere Bereitschaft. Nicht für Party-Stimmung. Nicht für Menschen, die sich nicht sicher genug fühlen, intensive Erfahrungen zuzulassen. **🌿 Was dieser Raum wirklich ist** Eine Pause vom Funktionieren. Ein Reset für Körper und Nervensystem. Eine Einladung, wieder zu fühlen, statt nur zu denken. Oder einfacher: Ein Event, an dem du wieder spürst, dass du lebendig bist. **🕯️ Details** 📍 Ort: In Berlin - wird noch bekannt gegeben ⏳ Dauer: 70-100 Minuten 👥 Sichere Kleingruppe - begrenzte Plätze ***Ablauf:*** 1. Ankommen & (Nervensystem-)Sicherheit (Einführung, Regeln, Atemtechnik etc.) 2. Öffnung & Aktivierung (Movement & bewusste Atmung) 3. Intensität (Main-Part: Breathwork-Session) 4. Erdung & Regulation (Körperwahrnehmung, Atemtechnik & Stille) 5. Integration (kurze, geführte Entspannungsreise/Meditation) 6. Abschluss (freiwilliges Sharing etc.)

Join us on **March 25** to learn how the **Superhuman Engineering team is building a CI/CD system that learns, adapts, and gets faster over time**. ✅ **To attend the event**, please **register** **on Luma**: https://luma.com/loqydsym Please note that **only guests with a confirmed Luma registration will be admitted**. Due to limited capacity, we won’t be able to accommodate attendees who haven't registered. Most teams treat their CI/CD pipeline as infrastructure that “just works”—until it doesn’t. Three Superhuman engineers share how they combined AI-driven automation, test-strategy overhauls, and infrastructure migration to build a pipeline that not only runs but also continuously improves itself. 🚀 [Dushan Terzikj](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dushanterzikj/) will share concrete examples of how the Grammarly Inkwell team reduced CI pipeline flakiness and duration—from parallelizing unit tests and migrating to Storybook, to switching from dedicated macOS runners to on-demand Kubernetes runners. Attendees will walk away with practical, actionable techniques to make their own pipelines faster and more reliable. 🚀 [Timo Fink](https://www.linkedin.com/in/fink-timo/) will explain how Superhuman incorporated AI agents into their CI pipelines to develop a Self-Healing system. You will learn how we leverage Claude Code to automatically audit the reliability of our test suite and proactively suggest and prepare improvements for human review. 🚀 Darek Komosinski will show how his team exposes structured performance trace data to AI to automatically detect issues and surface actionable fixes. You will learn how combining rule-based analyzers with an AI summarization layer turns thousands of raw traces into a concise, prioritized report without manual triage. **About the speakers**: 🔈 **Dushan Terzikj** is a Software Engineer at Superhuman Platform Inc., where he works on the Superhuman browser extension—formerly the Grammarly browser extension—which serves more than 40 million monthly active users. He has also worked on a platform supporting the browser extension, where his team’s main goal was to deliver an outstanding developer experience. 🔈 **Timo Fink** is a Software Engineer at Superhuman Platform Inc., where he works on the Grammarly for Windows application. Grammarly for Windows, now part of the Superhuman suite, is the trusted AI writing partner for turning scattered thoughts into aligned, impactful communication. Timo has started to focus his efforts on developer experience, ensuring work can happen as fluidly as possible by removing recurring blockers like flaky pipelines. 🔈**Darek Komosiński** is a Software Engineer at Superhuman Platform Inc., where he works on the Grammarly for Windows application as a tech lead. He focuses on improving the performance of our apps (from observability to fixing issues) to make sure we can offer maximum value to users with minimal system impact. **Who should attend**: * Software engineers who want to apply AI-based tools to common developer experience problems * Technical leaders who want to offer their teams a new perspective on how to approach these challenges **Agenda:** ✨ 18:00–18:30: Check-in and networking ✨ 18:30–19:45: Talks ✨ 19:45–20:45: Mingle with our team

The Language Café is primarily aimed at people who are struggling with their mental health which can make it hard to go to regular courses. We want to create a safe space for everyone to learn and practise without pressure. Everyone is welcome! Please try to be on time so we can all get started together :) We mainly practise on a beginner/lower intermediate level and adapt to everyone's prior level of German. The Language Café will focus on teaching you the most important words and phrases and basic grammar in German. The content of the course is adapted to real life. (everyday life in Germany, dealing with authorities, etc.) We will cover different topics every week and you can join us anytime, since the topics do not necessarily build on each other. The Sprachcafé is for free. \*If you cannot make it please cancel your participation so someone else from the waiting list can join, thank you!\* \| \| \| \|

**👉 [Register here](https://www.linkedin.com/events/7429279114164850688?viewAsMember=true) 👈** Together with the AI Guild, we’re excited to reunite with the **[AI Guild Dinner](https://www.theguild.ai/)** at our **[Deutsche Bank Berlin Technology Centre](https://careers.db.com/explore-the-bank/careers-in-technology/berlin.techcentre/)**! **Agenda:** **18.30 Doors Open for Networking & Refreshments** Arrive at Deutsche Bank Berlin Technology Center, Otto-Suhr-Allee 16, 10585 Berlin. How to get there: Travel via the Bahnhof Zoo and Ernst-Reuter-Platz - use the subway U2 or the Bus M45. Welcome and Introduction to the Berlin AI Guild Dinner by **[Chris Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisarmbruster/)**, MD at [AI Guild](https://theguild.ai/). **19.00 Technical Debt when Vibe Coding** **[Dishu Bagga](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dishu-bagga-632236163/)**, Software Engineering, Deutsche Bank. AI assistants, scaffolding tools, and templates let us ship software faster than ever. You prompt, paste, and move on. Most of the time, it works. But while everything appears smooth, technical debt quietly accumulates. Modern tools optimize for speed—not architecture. Layers blur, boundaries erode, and structural decisions get locked in long before anyone notices. In this talk, we’ll use real examples and live coding to show how AI-accelerated development can produce clean-looking code but fragile systems. Small shortcuts compound. Complexity hides in plain sight. The goal is not to criticize AI tooling—but to remind us: Generated code still carries architectural consequences. Speed is easy. Sustainable systems require intent. **19.30 Agentic AI in a Global Corporate: The first iteration** **[Dijle Kara](https://www.linkedin.com/in/dijlekara/)**, AI Hub Product Manager at Henkel What happens when autonomous AI agents meet the complexity of a global enterprise? From legacy systems to governance and scale, the first deployments reveal both promise and friction. What actually works in production? Where do agents fail? And how do organizations adapt when software begins to act autonomously? **20.00 Announcement of the Berlin Exhibition Pix2GenAI** **[Dr. Kristian Rother](https://www.linkedin.com/in/kristian-rother/)**, Python Developer, Data Scientist, and Trainer Code meets art. *Pix2GenAI* showcases computer-generated artworks created with algorithms, mathematics, and AI models—exploring the space between handcrafted code and generative intelligence. Kristian will invite you to the exhibition on 28 March 2026. **20.15 Dinner and Drinks at Deutsche Bank Berlin Technology Center** **Registration** Via the AI Guild page on LinkedIn only.

Hello! I’m organising a coworking + socialising session for all of us who are working on projects (e.g. our own creations, freelance or remote work) but don't feel like sitting alone at home. 🙂 To ensure that we have time for both socialising AND working, we will be using the so-called “Pomodoro” technique: **50 mins deep work** (silent), followed by **10 mins break** to socialise. And then repeat! You are welcome to join whatever your personal background is, and whatever project you are working on. I (the host) speak English and German, so either language is fine. ——————————————————- AGENDA: * **Short Intro** Tell us who you are and share something about what you will be working on today * **Pomodoro Session** \- 3x \(3h\) Each Pomodoro session consists of 50 mins focused “deep work” (no talking, no interruptions, **phones on silent mode**) -> then 10 mins break: a chance to share your progress with others -> Repeat * **15 mins Wrap Up** Celebrate what you achieved and get to know others 😊 ———— The location is **Espresso House near Checkpoint Charlie** (they have multiple outlets - so be sure to go to the correct one!) Wifi + power plugs are available - but best to bring a fully charged laptop, just in case 🙃 You **do not** have to pay anything. But since we are using the café space, it is common courtesy to buy at least one drink (coffee costs roughly **4 Euros**).

If you enjoy knitting, crocheting, working with yarn, this is the group for you. Meet new friends, bring your projects, learn from others.
We normally meet a few times a month during the week from 6-8pm. We will occasionally meet on weekends during daytime hours.

**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you. The building address is 4450 Bridge Park The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400 **Abstract** Web Forms gave .NET developers a powerful abstraction for building reusable UI controls long before design systems were a thing. Web Components finally bring that same idea to the browser natively. This session explores how the Web Forms mindset translates into Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, and HTML templates. We’ll examine how Web Components enable design systems that work across frameworks, how they differ from server‑driven controls, and why they’re becoming a foundational layer for modern UI. Whether you’re maintaining legacy apps or building greenfield projects, you’ll leave with a practical understanding of how to apply familiar patterns in a modern, standards‑based way. **YouTube Link** TBA

12:45-3:45 in the Meeting Room on the library lowest level. Bring your yarn projects, meet new friends. If you plan to attend, please RSVP yes. If you can’t attend, please change your RSVP to no. This helps anyone who is waitlisted and it allows me to have an accurate count of attendees as our space is quite limited. Plenty of parking in the lot, in the overflow lot across the street, and on the street. See you there! Winter Note: If the weather is bad and I have to cancel the Meetup, i will issue the cancellation not later than 3 p.m. of that day.
