Mob Programming at Mofer Coffee
Let’s do some coding together at a cafe! No more working alone in the weekend. Here, we write code together. And I mean together together. Not occupying-the-same-space-but-separate together.
Here’s how it works: Jennifer brings her mobile app project, tells everyone that it is like Pinterest for recipes and she’d like to work on the nav bar. Paul and Chloe think Jennifer's project is fascinating, and they join the group. They gather around Jennifer’s laptop and work on the nav bar for 2 hours. Jennifer is the one typing out the code while Paul and Chloe research, brainstorm, and offer suggestions.
If you’re feeling stuck on your own project or need a motivation boost, bring it to mob programming!
Want to learn by watching how others code and solve problems? Join someone else’s project at this event!
Oh and we love your half-done projects that you are a bit embarrassed to share. Absolutely bring those to the event!
**Discord**:
We use Discord to share screen & code snippets during the event. Also feel free to share your projects here before the event!
https://discord.gg/xwjDdVSw3E
**Event policy**:
* We have 0 tolerance for harassment.
* We don’t allow the projects that are not meant to be shared in public such as school assignments, interview tasks, or trade secrets.
* The goal is to write code. We discourage you from pitching business ideas here, doing code reviews, or spending the whole event on planning what to do.
* Please buy a drink, and tip the barista well.
Community Wim Hof practice
It's better when we're together. Come and experience the power of the WHM with a wonderful group of people. We breathe, we go into the cold and we teach our bodies to heat up properly. We develop resilience and the mindset to use these powerful healing tools over and over again, all year round. This gathering is fully guided by Wim Hof instructor Steve Beattie.
If you are new to this, come on down, enjoy the support and practice in a safe way with us. If you already have a WHM practice this meetup is a great way to take it to the next level, and make lots of new friends.
There will be a fire, snacks and drinks shared by other attendees. We have been doing this 6 for years!
**What to bring?**
* Yoga mat
* Weather-appropriate clothing (better to dress too warm!)
* Bathing suite, towel

Google Cloud Labs: AI Toolkit
RSVP on https://rsvp.withgoogle.com/events/google-cloud-labs-ai-toolkit-toronto .
Join Google Cloud Labs for an immersive, hands-on workshop designed to provide you with the practical skills and architectural patterns needed to deploy secure and scalable AI on GKE and integrate applied AI solutions across Google’s Data Cloud.
Please fill out the registration form on Google's event page to express interest in joining the event! Capacity is limited and registration is required.
Welcome to The Cloud Engineer's AI Toolkit workshop!
This hands-on workshop will provide you with the practical skills and architectural patterns needed to deploy secure and scalable AI on GKE and integrate applied AI solutions across Google’s Data Cloud.
This is an interactive session, not a lecture. Get ready for a series of live labs where you will use GKE OneMCP and the Gemini CLI to accelerate operations, and implement the GKE Agent Sandbox for secure code execution. In our data lab, we’ll guide you through building multimodal pipelines to power BigQuery Graph analytics and agentic workflows in ADK. You will leave with the practical expertise to deploy, secure, and scale production-grade AI workloads.
Note: To participate, you must bring your own laptop and power cable. The activities require a laptop and cannot be completed on a tablet or phone.
Who Should Attend?
This program is designed for Platform and Security Engineers, as well as Data Practitioners. Whether your focus is implementing defense-in-depth strategies, such as securing inference endpoints and enforcing security policies via Workload Identity and Policy Controller, or building multimodal data platforms that power agentic workflows, this session is for you. To get the most out of the labs, you should have foundational knowledge of GKE, and containerization, and basic SQL, alongside a commitment to maintaining auditable, scalable security for AI workloads.
What You Will Learn:
Master AI-Augmented Operations: Dive into the next generation of infrastructure management by utilizing the GKE MCP server, Gemini CLI, and kubectl-ai to replace manual slogging with seamless, natural-language-driven cluster operations.
Architect Secure Agentic Ecosystems: Build and deploy AI agents using the GKE Agent Sandbox, implementing hardware-isolated environments that safely execute untrusted, AI-generated code without compromising your cluster's security posture.
Engineer Autonomous Remediation: Transition from reactive troubleshooting to proactive platform skills, creating custom AI agents that autonomously detect, diagnose, and resolve complex configuration drifts and cascading failures in real-time.
Unify & Govern AI Data Pipelines: Learn to establish governed pathways for ingesting, cleaning, and managing multi-format data across structured and unstructured sources, ensuring your AI is always grounded in accurate, secure information.
Unlock Multimodal Insights: Discover how to leverage built-in AI across your data ecosystem to analyze complex datasets, compare vector embeddings, and integrate your agents with data to uncover patterns that human eyes might miss.

Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code - Alan Barber
**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
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Customize the IDE: Building Extensions for Visual Studio Code*
Visual Studio Code is one of the most widely used development environments today, and much of its flexibility comes from its extension ecosystem. 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.
