Make Friends: Not Small Talk - Deep talks & Coffee | đCulture Shock Therapy
Español Abajo
**âïž Coffee Talk: Where Conversations Are Stronger Than the Coffee âïž**
Had enough of awkward small talk and silent social gatherings? This is your chance to break free. Join us for a night of meaningful conversations about life, dreams, existential crises, and why we keep procrastinating our goals.
\*\* What to expect?\*\*
âïž Thought-provoking questions (but not too deep, we promise).
âïž Interesting people with zero interest in discussing traffic.
âïž Interactive dynamics that push you out of your comfort zoneâwithout feeling like a job interview.
If you're ready for an evening of deep conversations, great coffee, and a dash of sarcastic humor, save your spot before you regret it (again).
**Where?** Diletto â PerĂłn 4217 (because coffee without great conversations is just wasted caffeine).
**How much?** $5,000 ARS / $5 USD (yes, genuine connections have a price, but theyâre worth every cent).

Code Anywhere by Talking to your Phone
Abstract:
Have you heard the trend of people deploying code anywhere from checkout lines to doctors' offices? In this talk, you will learn how to talk to your phone and have an app on Azure to show your friend 5 minutes later. The basic DevOps tools you already know, plus a little bit of AI magic, are all you need!
If you want to follow along, the demo will be in Azure with GitHub Actions and GitHub Copilot, and you can have it set up on your phone by the end of the session. Just come in with an Azure account and a GitHub repo.
Join us for pizza, drinks, and networking @ Improving's office. Doors open at 5:45.
TBD
