PCE - "Philosophic Conversation in English" is a discussion event in English language which focuses on psychology, philosophy, self-consciousness and self-realization. The conversation is based on inclusive discussion rules. We will meet at at a restaurant where we will have a private room exclusively reserved for our event. At the beginning we will choose the two topics to discuss. Everybody can suggest a topic. Afterwards we will vote what topics to discuss. The person who suggests a winning topic will start the discussion by explaining his/her idea. Afterwards everybody gets his/her chance to make a statement. But you can also decide to remain silent and only listen, if you prefer that. We have a time limit for statements, so that everybody has enough time to speak. It is not allowed to interrupt somebody who is speaking. After a statement everybody can ask a question and the speaker will answer. After the first part there will be a 15 minutes break before we start the second part. Everybody is welcome to our event: We are interested in your thoughts and opinions! It is no problem if you arrive late and you can also leave whenever you want. Please don't bring pets to this event because the room is usually very crowded. Please make sure to register for the event to secure your seat! Please check out last event's topics via this link: [http://pce-topic.project-website.org](http://pce-topic.project-website.org/)

So hast du andere Leute in Wien wahrscheinlich noch nie kennengelernt! Bis zu 10 Singles, die sich zuvor nicht kennen, treffen sich in einer Bar und lernen sich bei einem eigens für diese Veranstaltungsreihe entwickelten Spiel näher kennen. Das Spiel kombiniert eine gelungene Mischung aus Fragen, Aktionsaufgaben und lustiger Unterhaltung, die alleine oder als Team gemeistert werden. Durch verschiedene Aufgaben und Fragen kommen die Spieler in direkte Interaktion miteinander und lernen sich im Spielverlauf näher kennen. Im Vergleich zur klassischen Single Party lernst du bei Socialmatch wirklich nur Singles in deiner Altersgruppe kennen und kommst von ganz alleine ins Gespräch mit den anderen Teilnehmern. Ein Spielmoderator vor Ort informiert über den Ablauf und leitet durch den Abend. Sicher dir jetzt deinen Platz beim nächsten Event unter [[www.socialmatch.de](http://www.socialmatch.de/)] und lerne neue Leute in deiner Stadt kennen. Dieses Event ist für die Altersgruppe 40 - 60 Jahre. P.S. Socialmatch erhielt 2015 bereits einen Award für das Konzept, teste es selbst ;-) **Achtung: Nur mit Buchung über die Website ist eine Teilnahme möglich!**

📢 Main event starts at 18:30 CET ✨ **Robert Schimkowitsch**'s test run for his presentation at ACCU on Sea! In this talk, we explore combining template techniques with std::variant. The result? Extensible code with less boilerplate. We cover the basics of the subject area, then introduce an example inspired by my own work experience. As we dive into some key code snippets essential to the overall design, we identify problems, then figure out how to solve them. On this journey, we learn about breaking dependencies, ergonomic use of distinct data types and replacing duplicate code with a single implementation. We look at template instantiations to visualize and understand both the compile-time and run-time aspects of our code. Finally, we evaluate the code design impact of our changes, what benefits they gave us, and what alternative options we could have used instead. After this talk, you will have a firm grasp on techniques that make std::variant even more useful in practice. This will give you more options for your next application subsystem design. You do not need prior knowledge of either std::variant or writing template code. 🪙 We appreciate any **voluntary donations** on-site. ⏱️ Arrive early for pre-socializing—simple snacks and drinks will be provided. 🍕 After the event, we will relocate to a pizzeria (at your own expense).

After a great kickoff, the Vienna OpenSearch community continues to grow. If you’re into search, logs, or anything around data and observability, come hang out, exchange ideas, and meet like-minded people. No matter if you're an expert or just curious, you’re welcome. This edition is about practical AI-assisted operations: exploring how operational workflows, data analysis, and troubleshooting can be supported through modern AI tooling and agentic runtimes. **[RISE](https://www.rise-world.com/de/)** is happy to host the evening with free drinks and snacks — just bring your curiosity and good vibes! **Agenda** * 6:00pm - 6:15pm - Open Doors & Welcome Notes * 6:15pm - 7:00pm - Talk 1 (David Riepl, RISE GmbH) * 7:00pm - 7:30pm - Break (Drinks and Snacks) * 7:30pm - 8:15pm - Talk 2 (Max Scharizer, RISE GmbH) * 8:20pm - 9:00pm - Networking (Drinks and Snacks) **Location** RISE GmbH, Wiedner Hauptstrasse 68, 1st Floor 1040 - Vienna --> [https://maps.app.goo.gl/ZJf4MGgZffdgTxtH8](https://maps.app.goo.gl/cNb63cW7hiQcNQ5v7) **Speakers and Sessions** **Talk 1:** **From ChatOps to Agentic Ops: Building Operational AI Workflows on OpenSearch** AI-assisted operations are evolving beyond simple chat interfaces. This hands-on session explores the path from ChatOps toward Agentic Operations using OpenSearch as a data platform and OpenCode as the agentic runtime. We will demonstrate practical operational AI workflows hands-on in complex multi-tenant OpenSearch environments. Along the way, we will critically examine where AI-driven operations provide real value and where they introduce new complexity. **David Riepl** is a System Engineer at RISE, specializing in product development for log analysis and security monitoring. With over 15 years of experience in the field IT operations, he has developed expertise in designing and implementing highly available systems, implementing comprehensive application and security monitoring strategies for complex IT environments. **Talk 2:** **Root Cause Analysis of OpenSearch Clusters with the Model Context Protocol (MCP)** In this talk, we will take a look at MCP - a very well established AI protocol - and show how it can help us to conduct Root Cause Analysis on OpenSearch Clusters. **Max Scharizer** is a Systems Engineer at RISE, specializing in Monitoring & Observability, Kubernetes and Container Platforms.

Join us for an Apache Kafka® meetup on Tuesday, June 9th from 5:30 pm hosted by Austrian Post AG! **Not an official dress code, but if you're in the mood to bring your "beach party outfit" it would be nice!** 📍**Venue:** Austrian Post AG Rochusplatz 1 1030 Vienna 🗓 **Agenda:** * 5:30pm: Doors open * 5:30pm – 6:00pm: Drinks and networking * 6:00pm - 6:45pm: How to discover schemas and topics for your next domain service * 6:45pm - 7:30pm: Kafka on Kubernetes: Building a Full-Stack Streaming Environment with Strimzi * 7:30pm - 9:00pm: Additional Q&A, Snacks and Networking 💡 **Speaker One**: Nicola Narducci (Austrian Post), Lukas Peleska (Austrian Post) **Title of Talk:** How to discover schemas and topics for your next domain service **Abstract:** At the foundation of every event driven system are schemas and topics describing what data is flowing through your system. Nico and Lukas will show what it takes for topics and schemas to show up in EventCatalog for data discovery. This includes their GitOps approach, how versioning, reviews, and automation helps them maintain consistency, enable self‑service, and avoid breaking changes in production. **Bio:** **Nico** joined Austrian Post in 2021, contributing to and leading the Event Streaming Platform as Solution Architect. His academic roots are in Bologna Italy. He started working as a software engineer in a small software house in Italy before moving to Vienna. Outside of work, he enjoys biking, video games (especially AoE2), eating pizza and tinkering with anything that can be connected to a network **Lukas** started working for Austrian Post in 2024 as a Software Engineer for the Event Streaming Platform. In his career he has mostly worked in enterprise environments with reactive systems playing a significant part everywhere. His first interactions with Kafka were in 2017. When not delivering Kafka Messages at Post, he likes watching old movies at the cinema, playing the guitar and doing analog photography. 💡**Speaker Two**: Sahil Sharma **Title of Talk:** Kafka on Kubernetes: Building a Full-Stack Streaming Environment with Strimzi **Abstract:** Running Apache Kafka on Kubernetes was once considered a daunting task. However, the Strimzi operator has simplified this process, making it possible to manage complex streaming infrastructure through a declarative approach. In this session, we will demonstrate how to bridge the gap between local development and production patterns by deploying a full-stack Kafka environment inside a Kind cluster. We will walk through a live setup including: * Cluster Provisioning: Using Strimzi to deploy a functional Kafka cluster in seconds. * Management & Visibility: Integrating Kafbat UI to inspect topics and messages. * Observability: Implementing a Grafana and Prometheus + AlertManager stack to track broker health and consumer lag. * Application Flow: Deploying a producer and consumer to validate the end-to-end data pipeline using Confluent library. * Whether you are building a local sandbox or planning a larger rollout, you will leave with a repeatable template for a fully observable Kafka ecosystem on Kubernetes. **Bio:** **Sahil** is a Cloud & Platform Engineer focused on building resilient infrastructure at the intersection of Kubernetes and cloud-native technologies.

Hi Deep Learners, We are happy to announce one more Vienna Deep Learning Meetup before the summer break: on **June 10** at ÖBB. We will again have two talks: Agentic AI in Production and Exploratory Causal Inference. \*\*\* **Agenda:** * 18:15 Arrival * 18:30 **Introduction** by the meetup organizers * **Welcome** by the host: ÖBB * 18:45 **Talk 1: Agentic AI Systems in Production: Best Practices, Challenges & Lessons Learned** by Hilda Kosorus (*Onefold AI*) * 19:30 **Announcements** * **Networking Break** * 20:00 **Talk 2:** **Scaling Empiricism in Artificial Causal Inference** by Riccardo Cadei *(ISTA)* * 20:30 **Networking** * \~21:30 **Wrap up & End** \*\*\* **Talk Details:** \-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\-\- **Talk 1:** **Agentic AI Systems in Production: Best Practices, Challenges & Lessons Learned** Building agentic AI systems that work in production is harder than the demos suggest. Real users, real data, and real edge cases surface challenges that don't show up in most tutorials. We must consider orchestration trade-offs, observability gaps, evaluation strategy, latency and cost realities. There's constant tension between giving agents autonomy and keeping them under control. In this talk, we share what we've learned shipping agentic systems end-to-end. We'll walk through how our architectures evolved and the trade-offs behind each shift, and we'll be honest about which frameworks — such as LangGraph, LangChain, Langfuse — earned their place in our stack. Expect architecture diagrams and the patterns we now apply to lead our custom projects to success. **About the speaker:** We are Onefold AI — Tobi, Csenge, and Hilda. We combine deep LLM engineering with a research foundation, years of data science work, and multiple agentic systems shipped end-to-end into production. Our recent projects span compliance and audit automation, multi-agent workspaces for food scientists, and our own product development — all building on the hard-won lessons we'll share in this session. **Talk 2:** **Scaling Empiricism in Artificial Causal Inference** Randomized trials are the gold standard of empirical science, yet their analysis still hinges on hand-crafted hypotheses: the investigator has to decide upfront what to measure and whom to compare, often anchoring on familiar narratives. A paradigm shift is now within reach: modern trials measure more, and representation learning gives us the tools to scale the reading accordingly. In this talk, I will present two algorithms I developed to bridge this richer measurement to causal claims, e.g., scientific discoveries or policy guidelines. Neural Effect Search (NES) identifies the latent effects of a treatment from unstructured outcomes. Neural EXposure Interaction Search (NEXIS) identifies an interpretable and prescriptive characterization of effect heterogeneity. I will illustrate both through real-world deployments in experimental ecology and development economics. **About the speaker:** Riccardo Cadei is an ELLIS PhD student at ISTA with a growing record of foundational, methodological, and applied contributions to Causal Inference and AI for Science. He actively collaborates with biologists, neuroscientists, economists, and public-health researchers, translating his vision of Artificial Causal Inference into concrete scientific workflows. We are looking forward to welcoming you at our last meetup before summer! Your VDLM organizer team

We'd like to invite you to our fourth installation for the Cloud Native Vienna MeetUps in 2026! Again we'll have two deep-dive talks and time to network and chat with friends in the Viennese cloud native community. A big thank you to **WKO Inhouse GmbH** for hosting us and providing food and drinks! **Agenda:** * **17:30:** Doors Open & Networking * **17:55:** Welcome from the Organizers * **18:00:** **Talk 1:** Rober Klonner (WKO Inhouse GmbH) **GitOps Visibility: Precise Argo CD diffs on every Pull Request** * **18:45:** Break & Refreshments * **19:00:** **Talk 2:** Thomas Hanser (Untis GmbH) **The Untis Platform Engineering Journey: GitOps Multi-Tenancy with Flux, GitLab, and Friends** * **19:45:** Open Networking We look forward to seeing you there! \-\-\- **Talks:** Rober Klonner (WKO Inhouse Gmbh) **GitOps Visibility: Precise Argo CD diffs on every Pull Request** Today's GitOps deployments are generated through layers of templating - Helm charts, Kustomize or ApplicationSets. Modifying these abstractions and trying to mentally render the output is error-prone. This talk introduces a method that uses Argo CD itself to render accurate diffs of Helm charts and Kustomize overlays between branches and posts the result directly on your pull request. We'll walk through a production setup using the Argo CD Operator, Argo CD Diff Preview, and GitLab CI, optimized for performance, minimal maintenance, and security. Through real-world use cases, we'll show what issues this approach catches before they hit your cluster. Thomas Hanser (Untis GmbH) **The Untis Platform Engineering Journey: GitOps Multi-Tenancy with Flux, GitLab, and Friends** Operating in the European education sector means juggling compliance, student privacy and massive traffic spikes when school starts. Historically at Untis, keeping this running in production was the burden of a single operations team. This session details our transition to an automated, multi-tenant GitOps platform managing a fleet of internal and external Kubernetes clusters. We share our approach of building a platform that gives product teams actual autonomy without compromising on security or control: * **Structured Multi-Tenancy:** Mapping GitLab groups to namespaced tenant projects using Flux’s multi-tenant model. * **Secure Access Control:** Leveraging the GitLab Agent for Kubernetes to enable scoped, declarative self-service cluster access. * **Flexible Delivery Models:** Supporting multiple decentralized deployment strategies by balancing governance and freedom for both internal teams and external guest environments. Prepare for an honest demonstration of challenges like managing secret lifecycles across a growing fleet, moving from script-driven tenant onboarding to true automated self-service, and wrestling with the classic "chicken-and-egg" problems of bootstrapping Flux and handling GitOps release management.

We are pleased to welcome **Eva Flonner** from UNIQA Insurance Group to present an R package for health insurance. Join us to explore how R can be put to work in actuarial practice, from data to modeling to simulation. As we promote gender diversity and inclusion in the R community, all genders and skill levels in R are welcome! **ℹ️ Abstract** **HePriceR** is an R package for health insurance pricing that provides a framework for modeling expected claims and their uncertainty. The package consolidates classical actuarial approaches with modern statistical modeling, enabling transparent, reproducible, and extensible actuarial workflows. The core focus of HePriceR lies in the estimation of expected claims and their uncertainty. It implements multiple methodological approaches, including the Rusam method for expected claims, as well as comprehensive frequency–severity modeling. The package further provides technical implementations for common product design features, such as deductibles, sublimits, and benefit caps, ensuring that modeled claim distributions align with contractual reality. From a software design perspective, HePriceR relies on a structured system of S3 classes and methods, including dedicated hpr_pricing_data objects and corresponding fit objects. This design enables consistent handling of data, fitted models, diagnostics, and downstream simulation. On top of the fitted models, the package offers Monte Carlo simulation capabilities. Overall, HePriceR provides a cohesive actuarial toolkit that bridges actuarial methodology and statistical modeling, supporting both daily operations and advanced analytical use cases. This package is based on joint work with Herr Kompott. **🗺️ Location** TU Wien Freihaus Wiedner Hauptstraße 8-10, 1040 Vienna ([map](https://maps.app.goo.gl/N8PSCZfdi97KirFY6)) Exact room to be announced soon.

Most people still use AI like a search box: type one question, get one answer, repeat. But the next step is AI agents: systems that can take a goal, break it into steps, use tools, remember context, and produce useful work for a human to review. In this beginner-friendly session, we’ll demystify what AI agents actually are — without hype or jargon. We’ll walk through practical examples of how agents can help with research, planning, writing, coding, operations, and personal productivity. We’ll cover: * What makes an AI “agent” instead of just a chatbot * How agents break tasks into steps * Where agents are genuinely useful today * Where they fail, hallucinate, or need human review * How to design simple AI workflows for your own work * A live demo of an AI agent-style workflow from start to finish No coding experience required. This is for anyone who wants to understand where AI tools are going and how to use them more effectively right now. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.
