**Latest Dojo Location!** **Knotty Pine Brewing** 1765 W 3rd Ave, Columbus, OH 43212 We're going to try a new dojo location for a few weeks and see how it works Dojos are informal Python group study sessions where everyone interested in Python gathers to learn about Python, help others with Python, or just hang out. Everyone is welcome from Python beginners to experts. Bringing a laptop is encouraged (we'll have extension cords and power strips). If there's something you want to learn leave a comment on this invite so we can plan ahead. We're looking for speakers for our Monthly Meetups! Fill out the form if you are interested in presenting to the Python Community. https://forms.gle/ehSfUAC2WgR34Crq9

We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able! Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!

We have moved to guild.host. Look us up there. https://guild.host/events/buckeye-cocoaheads-rcavwd

*We'll update this with the specific topic(s) once they're set for the month.* A relaxed, community-driven Unity GameDev meetup. No strict agenda — just developers getting together to talk shop, share projects, and exchange ideas. Some topics that may come up (based on attendee interest): * Frame Debugger & performance tooling * Addressables & additive scene workflows * Input System, localization, responsive UI * AI integration approaches * DevOps & LiveOps experiences * Full lifecycle: idea → cross-platform publishing * Favorite Asset Store tools and hidden gems * Weird Unity quirks we've all run into Nothing is locked in. Bring a project if you'd like, bring a question, bring a lesson learned — or just come hang out and meet other developers. All skill levels welcome. Food and drinks provided.

Our monthly PHP meetup. A virtual shindig courtesy of Zoom. Check back here for the details around 6:15 pm

NOTE: Chris will join virtually, event is hybrid. Aspire isn't just for .NET — it's a polyglot orchestrator that can wire together Python, Node.js, Go, Java, and C# services under a single AppHost, with automatic service discovery, connection-string injection, and a unified observability dashboard. In this session, we'll explore that idea hands-on through seven sample applications that range from Flask and Django to Go and Java. We'll start with how Aspire solves the polyglot problem: the service-discovery chaos, configuration fragmentation, and 15-step READMEs that plague multi-language repos. You'll see how AddPythonApp, AddNpmApp, and AddDockerfile let you bring any runtime into Aspire's lifecycle, and how environment-variable conventions replace hardcoded URLs and scattered .env files. We'll also look at OpenTelemetry integration so that distributed traces, structured logs, and metrics from every language land in one dashboard with no separate tooling per stack. As we walk through the demos, we'll cover the practical patterns that matter most to real teams: dependency ordering, health checks across languages, connection-string injection for Redis, PostgreSQL, CosmosDB, and Kafka, and what it looks like to debug a request that crosses from a React frontend into a Go or Spring Boot backend. Finally, we'll step back and talk about the Aspire CLI workflow, what a production-ready polyglot repo looks like, and how Aspire's resource model maps to CI pipelines and deployment automation, including where Azure fits into the picture if that's part of your story. \-\-\- Meet and greet at 6:30, presentation begins at 7 PM ET.

You can sleep in on the Sesquicentennial (observed), we’re shifting to the following Friday. But join the local UX community for a chat and some biscuits to catch up. If you were in CA for Figma Config, tell us all the lines and you can tell me how I can animate an SVG without coding it by hand, and why I’d even want to. Thanks to the team at Nationwide of supporting the group.
