Give your still good laptop a second life instead of ditching it because Windows 11 says it is no good... Or you heard Linux is cool. If you have a backup of your data, that is great, else indicate that you do not, so we can help you. Do so in an extra message or to m10@m10tech.nl, else I don't receive your information. Geef je laptop die het nog prima doet een tweede kans in plaats van hem af te schrijven omdat Window 11 dat zegt... Of omdat je hoorde dat Linux gaaf is. Als je al een backup van je data hebt gemaakt is dat perfect. Of verwacht je dat wij dat doen? In dat geval graag aangeven hoe vol je harde schijf nu is... Doe dat in een extra bericht of aan m10@m10tech.nl, want de info komt anders niet door.

Join us and chat, ask your questions, or work on your own projects. The choice is yours! There is no agenda, this is simply a gathering of interested folks :). We're meeting at Lebkov right inside the Utrecht Centraal station. We're typically sitting at the large table. Search for the folks with the laptops in the back! You are very welcome to join whether you are an experienced developer, or simply interested and want to chat!

Make a leap into AI and experience the magic of skills, agents and control of personal and team productivity. Spend a Saturday building your own AI Chief of Staff. The personal setup that collects and enriches your contacts, watches your inbox and calendar, and answers you from Telegram or Slack while you get on with your day. You leave with something that works and that you will use every day, not notes on what you might build later. We build side by side, and help each other out. Walk out with a working system, and walk out knowing the people in the room. ​We will do the setup on [Team Brain](https://team-brain.com/?utm_source=luma), because it is built for exactly this kind of shared, collaborative workspace. You can start on your own and onboard your team later. But the session is really about the approach, how to think about automating your own work, and that thinking carries over anywhere. Use Notion, use whatever you already live in. The tool is not the point. The mental model is. ​ **Who is it for:** * ​Non-engineers looking to make a practical leap into AI * ​Anyone interested in building personal or family dashboards: finance, health, knowledge base * ​People looking to stand out at work and become the champions of AI transformation ​**How the day runs** * ​10:30 - 11:00 - Introduction and a brief overview of MCP, agents and skills * ​11:00 - 12:15 - Building together on [Team Brain](https://team-brain.com/?utm_source=luma), following the mentor on the big screen * ​12:15 - 12:30 - Coffee break * ​12:30 - 14:00 - Keep building * ​14:00 - 14:30 - Lunch * ​14:30 - 15:30 - Keep building (finishing your Chief of Staff) * ​15:30 - 16:15 - Showcase what you’ve built * ​16:15 - 18:00 - Networking. This is in person on purpose. ​**What you will leave with** * ​A personal CRM that automatically populates from your email, calendar, call notes * ​Daily enrichment of your contacts with LinkedIn profiles * ​A Telegram/Slack bot that can process text/voice/images to retrieve and populate your CRM * ​A Skill that can be used to write in your style * ​And agents that draft responses to your emails according to your rules * ​A Telegram community of like-minded vibecoders to keep discussing your agents after the event ​**Cost goes toward** * ​Space * ​Food and organization * ​$30 of credits on [Team-brain.com](https://team-brain.com/?utm_source=luma) ​**What you will need** * ​Your own laptop * ​Optional but recommended Claude/OpenAI/Gemini subscription * ​A free account on [Team-brain.com](https://team-brain.com/?utm_source=luma). You can also use Notion, though Notion functionality is limited and the cost of running agents is significantly higher. * ​You will need a credit card to purchase extra credits on Team-brain or Notion to build complex agents ​**Your mentors** **​[Dima Abramov](https://www.linkedin.com/in/abramovdima/?utm_source=luma) \- Product Lead at Foundever and founder of Vibe Coding Amsterdam** ​Dima helps people turn ideas into working prototypes through sharp discovery, rapid prototyping and AI-assisted building.

Get ready for a night of questionable singing, sizzling grills, and unforgettable chaos in the heart of Utrecht! We’ll kick off the evening at [Duke of Tokyo Utrecht](https://dukeoftokyo.com/en), one of the city’s most iconic karaoke spots. Hidden beneath the streets of Utrecht in a neon-lit Tokyo-inspired wonderland, this place is all about private karaoke rooms, over-the-top vibes, cocktails, and singing your heart out with friends. After warming up our vocal cords (and possibly damaging them forever), we’ll take a short walk to [Daebak Korean BBQ](https://daebakbbq.nl/) for an interactive Korean BBQ dinner experience. Expect tabletop grills, endless sizzling meat, delicious banchan, and the kind of food coma that only Korean BBQ can deliver. **🕒 Schedule** * **17:30 – 19:30** → Karaoke at Duke of Tokyo * **20:00 – 22:00** → Korean BBQ dinner at Daebak The two venues are within walking distance from each other. **💰 Costs** **Karaoke Only** * Karaoke at Duke of Tokyo: **€18** **Korean BBQ Only** * Korean BBQ dinner at Daebak: **€42** **Full Evening** * Karaoke + Korean BBQ: **€60** *Drinks are not included.* **⚠️ Important Information** * You are welcome to join **only the karaoke**, **only the dinner**, or **both activities**. * RSVP means commitment to attend. * Everyone pays for themselves. * Please arrive on time so we can enter the karaoke rooms together. * Bring your best (or worst) song choices. * No singing talent required — enthusiasm is far more important. Expect a night full of laughter, dramatic performances, K-pop singalongs, nostalgic 2000s hits, smoky BBQ grills, and probably at least one accidental duet.

In modern life, we constantly treat our bodies as mere "tools" to get things done, rarely taking a moment to actually listen to them. We contract our posture, match the pace of our screens, and let the brain dominate everything. Yes, Amsterdam is exceptionally hot right now ☀️. Your adult brain might be telling you to stay indoors, glued to the AC and a screen. But remember when you were a kid? Heat never stopped us. We ran into the wild, chased the wind, and embraced the sweat because playing was all that mattered. **Cloud Causality** invites you to step out of the stifling indoor air and dive into the natural, shady canopy of Amsterdam's beautiful Gaasperpark. To let your body breathe with the trees, run barefoot on the grass, and laugh out loud in the cool breeze by the water. To embrace your inner clumsiness, and **awaken the child within you.** 🎭 **What We Will Explore:** * **Unleashing Your True Nature:** Step back into childhood through high-energy, rule-free theatre games that bypass your logical mind.trees, and earth inspire our movement. * **Sensory Reboot:** Awaken the body by reconnecting with your breath, gravity, and natural impulses under the open sky. * **Improvisational Release:** Use nature as your partner—letting the wind and earth help you completely shake off corporate stress and daily hustle. 👥 **Who Is This For?** Perfect for anyone wanting to disconnect from the digital world, release stress, and meet a warm, creative community. **Absolutely no movement or theatre experience needed!** Come exactly as you are. 🕺 **Meet Your Facilitator** This session will be led by **Zippo Guo**, a Chinese physical theatre artist, Featured illusionist at ‘The Illusionists Starring Hans Klok’ (Cirque du Soleil Entertainment Group) ☁️ **About Cloud Causality (当下剧场)** Cloud Causality is an international platform for physical theatre and cultural exchange.

**Practical Curiosity: Learning from Everyday Data** How do we actually get better at utilizing our day-to-day data? Fancy dashboards and complex models might look nice and draw attention, but that’s not where most of us spend our time. In fact those shiny outputs frequently sit unused, while the real insights are drawn from the analyst’s daily practice. Sometimes it’s as simple and as powerful as noticing that a segment is shrinking, a channel is underused, or certain links keep getting all the clicks. There’s many different places that the spark of insight can come from, but you have to keep your head in the data and know where to look. In this session, we’ll explore real-world examples of how segmentation, testing, and click behavior can uncover practical digital marketing opportunities. You’ll leave with inspiration for your own use cases, along with a few simple ways to ask better questions, spot meaningful patterns, and make smarter decisions without overcomplicating it. **About Our Speaker:** [Elaine Armbruster](https://www.linkedin.com/in/elainearmbruster/) is a Director of Digital Experience at the [American Diabetes Association](https://diabetes.org/), where she focuses on using data and insights to create smarter, more effective digital experiences. A lifelong Columbus resident, she has built her career in email marketing and the broader digital user journey, and is finding she most enjoys working in the messy middle where systems, data, and big ideas don’t quite line up yet.
