Czech Co-Learning Session 🇨🇿
Learning Czech can be hard and demotivating, especially when studying alone.
**This meetup is a shared study session where we come together to stay focused, motivated, and make progress — each in our own way.**
This is a co-learning / co-studying session, not a class. There is no teacher, no lesson, and no study material provided.
Everyone comes with their own resources and studies independently, in a shared environment.
🧠 **How it works**
• We all bring our own material:
• textbooks
• homework from a Czech course
• Duolingo or other apps
• reading practice
• vocabulary review, etc.
• We mainly work individually
• We are free to:
• ask questions
• help each other
• share tips and resources
• No teacher, no formal structure, no pressure
👥 **Who is it for?**
• Czech learners of all levels
• Non-Czech speakers (expats, internationals)
• Czech native speakers are welcome if they want to help, but this is not a language exchange
⏱ **Practical info**
• Location: Cafedu
12, Škrétova 490, 120 00 Praha 2
(Metro A and C, Muzeum station)
• Duration: 2 hours, or less or more, as you want
• Day & time: Monday, 18:00
• Group size: small group for now
• Free event — please support the café by ordering a drink ☕
If you’re learning Czech and lack motivation when studying alone, come join us — let’s find it together 🙂
Spanish Conversations for Beginners and Intermediates
Are you learning Spanish and feel that you need more conversation but are shy to speak?
Here you will meet beginners and intermediate and we all will make mistakes in our Spanish communication so it will be just fun!
Simply come and enjoy your conversation with the friendly broken Spanish talking group!
Sometimes we will meet in some cozy café, sometimes we may go for a walk or some Spanish culture related event.
¿Estás aprendiendo español y sientes que necesitas más conversación pero te da vergüenza hablar?
Aquí conocerás a principiantes e intermedios y todos cometeremos errores en nuestra communicación en español, así que será simplemente divertido.
¡Ven y disfruta de tu conversación con el grupo amigable de habla de español roto!
A veces nos vemos en algún café acogedor, otras veces podemos dar un paseo o algún evento relacionado con la cultura española.
For half of the Spanish here I used translator so if some of the Spanish words above sound weird to you, feel free to blame Google Translate :)

Gentle Vinyasa + Sound Healing with Andrea
Gentle Vinyasa is a slow, mindful yoga practice that connects breath and movement in a steady rhythm.
The class focuses on soft flow sequences designed to release tension, improve mobility, and support nervous system balance. The pace allows participants to move with awareness rather than intensity.
The session concludes with sound healing using crystal bowls. The sound supports integration and relaxation, allowing the body to settle after movement.
This practice is suitable for all levels and does not require previous yoga experience.
The class includes guided movement and a closing relaxation with sound.
Facilitated by Andreea Surdu, yoga teacher who guides classes with clarity and calm presence. Her approach emphasizes breath, alignment, and accessible movement for everyday bodies.
Mondays, 18.00-19.00, small classes, 200 CZK

Praha [🍺 a ☕️Lajka]: Hloupneme kvůli AI? A právo v Silicon Valley!
**„Březnový sraz, kde se řeší kód, právo i budoucnost s AI!“**
Zima končí, ale debaty o webu nekončí nikdy. Březnový sraz v [pivovaru Lajka](https://pivovarlajka.cz/pivovar/) je zpátky a tentokrát to bude pestrý mix — od umělé inteligence přes seriálové právo až po networking s lidmi, kteří žijí frontendem a designem. Vezměte dobrou náladu a přijďte!
Budeme se scházet postupně od 18:00 a **od 18:30 máme na programu:**
* 📰 Nowwwinky od Tomáše Kouta
* 🤖 AI tě naučí všechno. Nebo nic. – Karolína Vyskočilová
* ⚖️ Seriál Silicon Valley byl více o právu než o techu.
Nevěříš? – Karel Navrátil & Jakub Gregorec
* 🎲 Risk{f}uj!
**Nowwwinky od Tomáše Kouta** 📰
Co je nového ve světě frontendu? Tomáš pro vás jako vždy vybral to nejzajímavější, co se od posledního srazu událo.
**AI tě naučí všechno. Nebo nic. 🤖 – Karolína Vyskočilová**
Studie od Anthropicu ukazuje, že lidi, co AI slepě poslouchají, rozumí vlastní práci míň než ti, co ji nepoužívají vůbec. Naopak ti, co se zeptat umí, mohou růst rychleji. Kde je hranice mezi „AI mi pomáhá růst" a „AI za mě přemýšlí"? Podíváme se, jak k tomu přistupuju já a budu ráda, když nasdílíte, jak to máte vy.
Karolína Vyskočilová – nezávislá vývojářka a konzultantka (kybernaut.cz). Lingvistka, co víc než 15 let programuje weby a aplikace, a teď sleduje, jak se s AI všechno točí kolem jazyka.
**Seriál Silicon Valley byl více o právu než o techu. Nevěříš? ⚖️ – Karel Navrátil & Jakub Gregorec**
Seriál Silicon Valley není prorokem jen v tech světě, ale i v právu. Na první dobrou jsme to neviděli. Proto jsme se po letech na něj podívali znovu, tentokrát se zkušenostmi právníka i znalostí startup světa. A bylo tam opravdu všechno.
Žádná přednáška vám nedokáže vysvětlit realitu práva jako tento seriál. Tvůrci mezi řádky schovali právní rady k nezaplacení. My vám ty nejlepší ukážeme pohledem právníka. Pozor! Některé postavy po přednášce už nikdy neuvidíte jako dřív.
**„Risk{f}uj!"** 🎲
Čeká nás další kolo oblíbené vědomostní soutěže na frontendová témata. Sestavte si tým, vyberte si kategorii a bodovou hodnotu a zkuste odpovědět správně dřív než ostatní.
Těšíme se na vás v pivovaru! 🍻✨
Facilitated Networking:Tools to scale Reputation & Trust in the Age of AI Fakery
Most professional relationships today start with a LinkedIn request and die in a DM. Meanwhile, AI-generated content is flooding every channel — making it harder to tell who's real, who's credible, and who's worth your time.
Trust is becoming the scarcest currency in professional life. And you can't build it through a screen alone.
Together with the Prague Founders & Digital Professionals community, we're hosting a small facilitated networking/mastermind evening at Spaces Smíchov. This is **not** a social mixer.
**The Topic of the Evening:** AI is making everything easier to fake — credentials, content, even relationships. So how do you build a reputation that actually holds up? How do you know who to trust — and how do others decide whether to trust you? We'll get into it.
Will share my tools & systems and would discuss your perspectives and protocols.
**This session creates a space for that.**
Together with the **Prague Founders & Digital Professionals** community, we’re hosting a small facilitated networking / mastermind evening at **Spaces Smíchov**. This is not a typical social mixer. It is a structured session designed for those who value depth over a stack of business cards.
**The Topic of the Evening:**
As AI tools automate content and work, how do professionals build real trust and maintain high-quality relationships today? We’ll discuss how reputation, credibility, and professional connections are evolving in 2026.
**What to Expect:**
* **30 min Group Discussion:** Insights on developing and maintaining trusted relationships in an AI-driven environment. We’ll cover specific frameworks and tools for staying "human" while scaling.
* **60 min Facilitated Networking:** No small talk. Structured table rotations designed so you have real conversations with most people in the room.
* **The Vibe:** No pitches. No panels. No "let me tell you about my startup." etc.
**Who usually comes:** Founders, consultants, product people, designers, and remote professionals who work globally and are tired of shallow networking.
**Agenda:**
* 17:30 – 17:45: Welcome & Snacks.
* 17:45 – 18:15: Shared Discussion: The New Rules of Trust
* 18:15 – 19:15: Facilitated Networking (Table Rotations)
* 19:15 – 19:30: Wrapping up
**About the Facilitator:**
The session is led by **[Alexander Benkendorf](https://www.linkedin.com/in/benkendorf/)**, a branding strategist for international tech companies (Benkendorf Group). Alex has 20 years of experience in human experience design and product development.
**Practical details:**
* **📍 Where:** Spaces Smíchov, Prague (Business Club / Lounge)
* **📅 When:** Tuesday\, March 10 \| 17:30 – 19:30
* **🌍 Language:** English
* **👥 Limit:** \~25 people to keep discussions comfortable
**Spaces are limited to ensure quality of conversation. Please RSVP to secure your spot.**
PyData Prague #34 - Learning from Distillation
Hello Python enthusiasts and models both large and small,
The 34th PyData meetup will take place at **Similarweb offices** (Dock in Five, reception A, 5th floor). As usual, the talks will start at 18:30 but we encourage you to come as soon as **18:00** to enjoy the opportunity to socialize and refresh yourselves (which you can continue doing during the break and after the talks).
Our main goal is to build the community around Python and data and make it welcoming to people of various skills and experience levels.
⚡ If you are interested in giving a lightning talk (up to 5 minutes to present an idea, tool or results related at least to some degree to Python and/or data), please contact us before the event or at its beginning.
**Why Your Models Fail: Learning from Regime Shifts in Real Data**
**([Alena Pavlova](https://www.linkedin.com/in/alena-pavlova-494610207/), Similarweb)**
When building predictive models, we often assume that the data-generating process is stable over time. In practice, this assumption is frequently violated and ignoring it can severely degrade model performance.
In this talk, we use stock market price data to demonstrate how overlooking market regimes leads to misleading results and fragile trading strategies. We start by implementing a simple strategy under the assumption of a single, stationary regime and show how it fails in changing market conditions.
We then introduce a regime-aware approach to infer latent market states. By applying the same strategy only within appropriate regimes, we demonstrate how performance, risk characteristics, and interpretability can change dramatically.
The talk focuses on practical Python implementation, intuitive explanations of regime modeling, and concrete lessons that extend beyond finance to any non-stationary time-series problem. Attendees will learn how to detect regime shifts, incorporate them into modeling workflows, and avoid common pitfalls when working with evolving data.
**Training Small Language Models with Knowledge Distillation**
**([Gabriela Kadlecová](https://www.linkedin.com/in/gabriela-kadlecova/), distil labs)**
Large language models (LLMs) have proven useful across a wide range of real-world applications, from code generation and document analysis to intelligent automation and data extraction. However, their practical adoption comes with some tradeoffs: inference costs can be prohibitive at scale, and sending sensitive data to external cloud APIs raises privacy concerns. Sometimes, a general-purpose model is more than what's needed - if the task is quite specific, a smaller, specialized model could do the job just as well.
Small Language Models (SLMs) are a great alternative - running entirely on local hardware, they keep data private, respond faster, and operate at a fraction of the cost. The key challenge is making them good enough for the task at hand, and this is where knowledge distillation comes in. By having a large "teacher" model automatically generate and refine training examples, we can create a specialized "student" model tailored to a specific task, starting from as few as a handful of seed examples.
In this talk, we walk through the full distillation pipeline: from defining a task and preparing seed data, through synthetic data generation, to fine-tuning an SLM ready for local deployment. We also present benchmark results comparing base and fine-tuned models, and a live demo showing how capable a well-distilled small model can be.
Philosophy Seminar: God of the Philosophers
This month we bring you a seminar from the host of Prague's famous Cafe Philo, Albert Hoffman, entitled “The God of the Philosophers”. In this seminar, we'll be **exploring the concept of god not through the lens of holy scriptures or divine revelation, but through that of reason.**
When philosophers speak of “god,” they are often speaking of something very different from that presented by most religious traditions.
In his Metaphysics, **Aristotle** carries out a metaphysical inquiry not with questions concerning the sacred or worship, but with motion, causation, and the structure of reality itself. He arrives at a **conception of god not as a mythic figure ready to reward or punish us, but something more similar to a law of nature.**
**Thomas Aquinas** inherits this framework centuries later and deepens it. Drawing on Aristotle's metaphysics, he asks whether contingent beings can account for their own existence, whether causes can regress infinitely, and what it would mean for something to exist necessarily rather than dependently. He presents to us an image of god not merely as first in a sequence, but as the very **ground of being itself**.
You don't need any prior knowledge or expertise on these subjects to participate in this discussion, so come and join us as we move through the logic underpinning these conceptions of god and discover whether these arguments still carry any force today!
\*\*\*
We’ll have tea and light snacks, but please feel free to bring any drink or snack you’d like to share!
This event will be hosted in an apartment with a well-trained dog who will be happy to meet you. If anyone has concerns about dogs, let me know so I can be mindful about keeping her from bothering you.
The buzzer is Everett and Mainous—we’re on the 5th floor, apartment 16.
AI pro vývojáře: lokální běh, evaulace a monitoring LLM aplikací
(Pozor, změna místa konání → Vlkova 628/36, Praha 3)
Rozdíl mezi „zkusil jsem ChatGPT“ a **smysluplným využíváním AI ve vývoji** je obrovský.
Na tomhle Qeetupu se podíváme na to, jak s AI pracovat **systematicky**:
* jak AI testovat, ladit a dlouhodobě zlepšovat,
* jak mít přehled o tom, co model dělá a proč,
* jak AI zapojit do reálných workflow, ne jen jako chytrý autocomplete,
* a co se změní ve chvíli, kdy nechceš nebo nemůžeš spoléhat jen na cloud a začneš řešit **lokální modely.**
Žádné základy. Žádné „co je to LLM“.
Tohle je **meetup pro vývojáře**.
**Testování, evaluace a monitoring LLM agentů**
LLM agenti dokážou řešit komplexní úlohy, ale bez správných nástrojů je těžké jim skutečně důvěřovat. Přednáška představí LangSmith jako platformu pro zajištění kvality, spolehlivosti a transparentnosti LLM agentů. Ukážeme si, jak pomocí testování, evaluací a observability zkrátit vývojový cyklus a bezpečně nasazovat AI aplikace do produkce.
**Nebojme se malých modelů!**
SLM: mýty, realita a praxe, aneb nebojme se malých (lokálních) modelů, kdy dává smysl provozovat SLM, jaké mají reálné limity a výhody oproti cloudovým LLM a jaké use-casy už dnes fungují v praxi. No BS, s konkrétními zkušenostmi a doporučeními.
**Kdo bude mluvit?**
🎤 **[Petr Malík](https://www.linkedin.com/in/petr-malik/)** – Team leader, [Qest technologies](https://www.linkedin.com/company/qest-technologies/posts/?feedView=all)
🎤 **[Daniel Čupak](https://www.linkedin.com/in/daniel-cupak-prague/)** – Head of data, [Qest technologies](https://www.linkedin.com/company/qest-technologies/posts/?feedView=all)
**Pro koho meetup je?**
* Pro devy, kteří už AI používají a naráží na její limity.
* Pro lidi, co chtějí jít za hranici promptů a „one-shot odpovědí“.
* Pro týmy, které řeší, jak AI používat dlouhodobě, opakovaně a kontrolovaně.
* Pro každého, koho zajímá, **kdy dává smysl lokální LLM a kdy ne.**
Literary Reading Group: “The Fall of the House of Usher” by Edgar A. Poe
We will discuss our reactions and interpretations of Poe’s classic 25-page short story, readable online [here](https://www.ibiblio.org/ebooks/Poe/Usher.pdf).
Poe is, among other things, often considered the inventor of the detective story and an original voice in the canon of American lit. This story (like many of his) is a romantic-era “gothic” work interested in madness, decay, and the supernatural. I look forward to hearing what you all think!

CBusData - Discover the Power of Window Functions
Window functions have nothing to do with the Windows operating system but provide a “window” to a result set when used in SQL queries. They are powerful, set-based methods to view data in unexpected ways. Window functions provide easy, set-based solutions to solve some common problems:
* Using running totals
* Performing operations in intervals
* Identifying data gaps and islands
* Performing aggregates without losing detail
Many people are confused by window functions and do not know how to use them properly. This session will explore window functions, how they work, and how to use them. Demonstrations with several examples will solidify how window functions can simplify queries and make them more powerful.
