Design Patterns und DuckDB & Co.
**Um was geht es dieses mal?**
Dieses Mal haben wir zwei Talks für euch!
**Performance und Portability in Data Analytics mit DuckDB & Co. - Niklas Niggemann**
Moderne Data Teams kämpfen mit zwei Kernproblemen: Performance und Portability. Dieser Vortrag zeigt anhand umfassender Benchmarks von DuckDB, Polars und Pandas mit Datensätzen von wenigen Gigabyte bis zu mehreren Terabyte, wie Ausführungsmodelle, Dateiorganisation und Speicherverwaltung die Performance beeinflussen. DuckDB liefert konstant niedrigen Speicherverbrauch, Polars erreicht durch Parallelisierung hohe Geschwindigkeiten – doch sobald mehrere Engines „schnell genug" sind, zählt Flexibilität. Abschließend zeigen wir deswegen, wie Frameworks wie Ibis die analytische Logik von Engines entkoppeln und so lokale Entwicklung, Cloud-Deployment und Plattform-Migrationen ohne teure Neuentwicklungen ermöglichen.
**Design Patterns - Wie sie dir helfen, ausdrucksstärkeren Code zu schreiben - Christian Ambach**
Vor über 30 Jahren veröffentlichte die Gang-of-Four ihren Klassiker "Design Patterns. Elements of Reusable Object-Oriented Software". Viele der Muster erfreuen sich heute großer Beliebtheit und es sind eine Menge von Patterns dazugekommen, nicht nur auf Design-, sondern auch auf Architektur- und Organisationsebene. Wusstest Du, dass Du wahrscheinlich schon Design Patterns einsetzt, ohne es zu merken?In diesem Vortrag wird betrachtet, wie bekannte Frameworks und Bibliotheken – zum Beispiel das Spring Framework – auf Design Patterns setzen und wie die Teilnehmer diese Muster vielleicht schon ganz selbstverständlich in ihrem Code verwenden. Gemeinsam werfen wir einen Blick auf eine Auswahl von Design- und Architekturpatterns, entdecken Good und Bad-Practices und wie man Patterns gezielt einsetzen kann, um Code noch ausdrucksstärker zu machen.
**Hybrides Setup!**
Wir freuen uns, euch bei uns in den Räumen der codecentric AG in Dortmund willkommen zu heißen. Vor Ort versorgen wir euch mit Snacks und Getränken und freuen uns gleichzeitig über interessante Diskussionen und einen guten Austausch. Für alle, die es nicht zu uns ins Office schaffen, werden wir das Meetup Hybrid durchführen. Der Stream beginnt ca. 10 Minuten später, damit wir vor Ort ausreichend Möglichkeit für persönliches Kennenlernen haben.
Den Live-Stream findet ihr auf dem [YouTube-Channel ](https://www.youtube.com/@codecentricAG)der codecentric AG.
**Wichtig - Absage bitte rechtzeitig:**
Wir bestellen das Essen bereits 3 Tage vor dem Meetup. Falls ihr doch verhindert sein solltet, bitten wir euch um eine rechtzeitige Absage. Das ist wichtig, damit wir nicht unnötig Essen verschwenden müssen. Vielen Dank für euer Verständnis!
**Anreise:**
Per Zug: Vom Dortmunder HBF sind es ca. 10 Minuten zu Fuß.
Mit dem Auto: Rund um das Office gibt es einige Parkflächen, dazu befinden sich in dem Parkhaus der Thier-Galerie weitere Parkplätze.

🏔️ Summit Hike – Everest Edition (8,848 m)
🏔️ Everest Update for the Veluwe Power Hikers
We were preparing for a classic VPH high altitude expedition on top of the world. Unfortunately there is some disappointing news. Starting in 2026, Nepal is introducing strict new regulations for climbing Mount Everest. Climbers will now need to have previously summited a 7,000 meter peak in Nepal and must also submit mandatory health certificates.
Because we cannot realistically summit a 7,000 meter peak and then climb Everest on the same day during our hike, I am unfortunately obliged to change the program.
There is also another small complication. 1 April falls on a Wednesday, which makes organizing the expedition a bit difficult.
After a poll in the WhatsApp group, we decided to move the date to **28 March** and climb the highest point of the Veluwe, **Signaal Imbosch (110 m)**. Even if it’s not Everest, don’t underestimate this hike: we will cover **22 km with about 350 metres of elevation gain** at a brisk pace. At this altitude, however, oxygen bottles are no longer recommended.
Please update your RSVP if you can no longer attend due to the change. ⛰️🥾
**When and Where to Meet?**
10:10 sharp at Rheden Trainstation. ⏰ Please arrive on time, as we won’t be able to wait for latecomers. 🥾✨
https://maps.app.goo.gl/VaEtswyBps5awMoL7
**Where and When Shall We Rest?**
We’ll take 2 breaks:
* Lunch break in nature at Signaal Imbosch (110 m) with group photo on summit; 20 min
* Snack and drink at Basecamp (80 m) where you can buy drinks and snacks; 30 min
**Notifications:**
* Technical equipment: avalanche transceiver (beacon), avalanche probe, and avalanche shovel (if you have them)
* A compact lunch and water to share at the summit
* The hike will only be canceled in case of severe avalanche risk (code 5).
* If you plan to bring a companion, please ensure that they are also registered for the hike.
* To be the first to get updates on new hikes, join our WhatsApp group! Feel free to ask for the QR code during the hike to easily join.
* T-shirts are now available for €25, made from Fairwear-certified organic cotton with eco-friendly inks—sustainable, odor-resistant, and perfect for your hiking adventures (limited stock, available during the hike)! Let me know your size and I will bring one for you!

**Session description:**
**Jasper Oosterveld - With Great Power Comes Great Labeling: Sensitivity Labels in de Praktijk**
Veel organisaties hebben inmiddels sensitivity labels geïmplementeerd als basis voor data security in Microsoft 365. Maar zodra je voorbij de basis komt, ontstaan er nieuwe vragen.
Hoe ontwerp je een werkbaar labelmodel? Hoe voorkom je dat gebruikers verdwalen in te veel labels? Wat betekent labeling voor Teams, SharePoint, Data Lifecycle Management en Microsoft 365 Copilot? En waarom gedraagt het platform zich soms nét anders dan je verwacht?
Tijdens deze interactieve sessie deel ik mijn praktijkervaringen met sensitivity labels: keuzes die goed uitpakten, dingen die ik achteraf anders zou doen en de frustraties die je alleen tegenkomt wanneer je labels écht gaat gebruiken in productie.
Dit is nadrukkelijk geen theoretische sessie. Neem je eigen ervaringen, uitdagingen en meningen mee, zodat we samen praktijklessen kunnen uitwisselen en ontdekken hoe we sensitivity labels effectiever kunnen inzetten.
**Jeroen Bijdevier - Je omgeving op orde voor veilig en optimaal Copilot gebruik**
Copilot ziet het verschil tussen achterhaalde en recente informatie niet. Die zal je dus een beetje moeten helpen. Rechten zijn vaak niet (in detail) op orde. Manueel deze zaken vinden is lastig en tijdrovend. Natuurlijk wil je rapportages hebben van het gebruik. Ergo dataveiligheid op orde en inzicht in het gebruik met Purview.

Arting at Elixer!
Hey! So yeah the idea is to meet up make some art and have a good time! It doesnt really matter what medium you choose or how good you think you are. The point is to be encouraged to take some time out of the week to make art, for whatever reason you do it for.
Im not associated to the restaurant Elixer by the way, its just my favorite one so I thought about doing it there. I think its a quirky and happy place. The address is Batjanstraat 1a.
Meetups charges me 46 a month to host the group and the events. If you can and you find value i this, then pelase send me a donation so I can continue to host these. If I make a profit from this, I thought about using it to muy some art materials and/or books to bring to the gatherings.
Walk & Talk in Arnhem Sonsbeekpark
Welcome to the event page of the Walk & Talk in Arnhem Sonsbeekpark, taking place on Sunday March 29th, 2026. This event is a informal walk where we will connect again and perhaps meet some new people. It will be the first day of Daylight Saving Time and, fortuitously, *Zeldzaam Mooi Markt* is taking place in Sonsbeek. We plan to make a stopover here. Our event is free and open for everyone to join, including Dutch and internationals.
**Practical information**
\- The meetup of this walk is at **13:00 at Arnhem station, near Burger King**. We’ll start walking after 10 minutes.
\- A walk like this is at a casual pace and usually takes about 2 hours\, including breaks\. We are focusing on an area\, not a specific route\. This gives us some room for suggestions of participants like when to have a few minute break\.
\- We will take a coffee break at a café in between or afterwards if there's enough interest\.
\- B\-YOU: Bring your own umbrella\, in case of rain\. If the weather is really unacceptable we will go to a café instead\, or cancel the entire event\.
\- You can leave at any time you like\.
**Sign up via Meetup OR E-mail**
Please sign up for this event by RSVP on Meetup OR send an e-mail to **[urbanarnhem@gmail.com](urbanarnhem@gmail.com)** . Joining the event is free, but donations will be very appreciated.

Art Night - Bring Your Own Work
Welcome to the Art School - 20's & 30's artists Meetup group! This is a community for young artists who are passionate about exploring different mediums and techniques in the world of art. Whether you're a painter, sculptor, photographer, or mixed media artist, this group is the perfect place to connect with like-minded individuals, have a space to work on your craft, and showcase your work. Let's inspire and support each other on our artistic journeys! Whether you're a novice or a seasoned artist, all skill levels are welcome. Join us and unleash your creativity!
This month we will be discussing **Frank Santoro**, an American cartoonist, painter, and comics critic known for his expressive lines, experimental page layouts, and vibrant use of color. His graphic novels—including *Storeyville*, *Pompeii*, and *Pittsburgh*—blend personal storytelling with innovative visual structure, often exploring memory, place, and relationships. In addition to his comics, Santoro has been an influential voice in comics education and criticism, co-founding the magazine *ComicsComics* and creating the **Santoro Correspondence Course for Comic Book Makers**, which has helped train and inspire a new generation of cartoonists.
Afterwards, we will have time to work on our individual art projects, hang out, and if anyone is interested in feedback on their work, there will be time for that as well.
Shut Up & Write!® East Side Columbus
Join us for an hour of writing! We’ve discovered that it’s strikingly helpful to write with other writers. See if it’s true for you at 7:00pm on Wednesday, March 25 at Streetlight Guild.
Be it a book, blog, script, essay, dissertation, resume, melody, poem or just plain work stuff, you are invited to write it with us. No one will see what you've written or give you unsolicited advice. Instead of just thinking about writing, come and get some real writing done.
**SCHEDULE:**
6:45ish - Quick introductions
7:00 - Timer starts: write for 1 hour
8:00 - The End
**OPTIONAL SOCIALIZING** happens before and after the writing hour. Writing is very solitary. Connecting (and sometimes even commiserating) with other writers is a cool thing.
**BEING LATE IS OKAY:** just show up and get settled! If you were on time, please be willing to make room for the friendly latecomer.
Happy writing & I look forward to seeing you at Streetlight Guild!
**WHAT SHOULD I BRING?**
Whatever you need to be able to write! You're welcome to bring earplugs/headphones if noise will bother you!
**OTHER IMPORTANT DETAILS:**
* **RSVP:** Please RSVP by 6:00pm the evening of the meeting. This helps me know how many to expect, and if we'll need additional space!
* **COVID:** While masks are not required, please be mindful of the other writers around you and their comfort levels.
* **WIFI/OUTLETS:** Outlets are limited, so please ensure your devices are charged when you come! But Streetlight Guild does have free WiFi! Yay!
* **PARKING:** There is free public parking at Streetlight Guild.
Columbus Yarn Club at the Grandview Heights Library
12:45-3:45 in the Meeting Room on the library lowest level. Bring your yarn projects, meet new friends.
If you plan to attend, please RSVP yes. If you can’t attend, please change your RSVP to no. This helps anyone who is waitlisted and it allows me to have an accurate count of attendees as our space is quite limited.
Plenty of parking in the lot, in the overflow lot across the street, and on the street.
See you there!
Winter Note: If the weather is bad and I have to cancel the Meetup, i will issue the cancellation not later than 3 p.m. of that day.
Arthouse Friday: THE DRAMA at the Drexel Theatre!
Join us as we get together for an Arthouse Movie Friday event to see the A24 dark comedy /romance / psychological-thriller, THE DRAMA! The film stars Zendaya and Robert Pattinson as a happily engaged couple whose relationship is challenged when one discovers unsettling truths about the other. Here are details, a trailer and our plan for this event:
DESCRIPTION: The film follows a happily engaged couple whose relationship is put to the test when an unexpected turn sends their wedding week off the rails. The film comes from A24, is written/directed by Kristoffer Borgli stars Zendaya, Robert Pattinson, Mamoudou Athie, Alana Haim, Hailey Gates and Zoë Winters.
QUICK WORD OF WARNING: The film hasn’t screened for critics yet and most of the details are being kept tightly under wraps. But, early buzz (possibly promotional) says the film is a brilliant psychological thriller/romance but also provocative, twisty and some contains occasional uncomfortable viewing! I love the cast and trailer, so look forward to seeing for ourselves!
ZENDAYA-PATTINSON TRIFECTA CHALLENGE: Robert Pattinson and Zendaya will star in THREE movies together this year, including THE DRAMA, Christopher Nolan’s THE ODYSSEY this Summer and Denis Villeneuve’s DUNE: PART THREE at Christmas!
TRAILER: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zmKcUa4Xxk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zmKcUa4Xxk)
PLAN: We’ll plan for 7pm-ish showing and will meet in the lobby area about 30 minutes before showtime! Advance ticket purchase not required for this theater but early arrival is advised. Possibly post-movie get-together at the nearby Rusty Bucket! Complete details will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer.
Take care and look forward to seeing you there, Dan
