The Mental Peace lab is a weekly meditation class where you get to tune in to peaceful mental states, which is the core of Buddhist meditation. Different approaches allow to do this, which we'll explore together. The class each time consists of a guided meditation, a practical and interactive Buddhist teaching and concludes with a nice collective meditation that draws from this teaching. After this, for those who wish, tea is served and we can chat :) The class is taught in English by an experienced meditator and translated sequentially into Greek. Wearing confortable clothes is advised. Seating is on chairs or on cushions. There is a suggested donation of 5 EUR which can be paid in cash or by REVOLUT/IRIS. Hoping to welcome you !

As an expat in Athens, it’s easy to meet people but harder to build the kind of connections that make a city feel like home. That’s exactly what Greek Out 🇬🇷 is about. ​Inspired by the Greek concept of "**parea**" - the feeling of belonging to a group of people who genuinely enjoy spending time together - Stone Soup & Maria are creating an evening where conversations go beyond small talk. Whether you've just arrived in Athens or have been here for years, come join us for a sunset gathering designed to turn strangers into familiar faces and, hopefully, new friends. 🏛️ What to Expect : • Become part of a parea and experience a key aspect of Greek culture • Enjoy meaningful conversations, games, and shared experiences • Learn about Greek customs, culture, and a few useful language insights • Meet fellow expats, internationals, digital nomads, and locals in a relaxed setting • Ask questions about relocating to Greece, visas, and the Greek AFM • Enjoy drinks on the rooftop while watching the sunset over Athens ​[No Greek language skills required] ​Spots are limited to keep the experience interactive. 🙏🏼 Grab your ticket and let's Greek Out together. Please RSVP on our [Luma link](https://luma.com/u145spd0) ​Στην υγειά μας! 🥂 [Stone Soup Coworking](https://www.instagram.com/stonesoupcoworking/?utm_source=luma) & [Maria Gkeme](https://greek-out.com/)

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
