Efficient Reconciliation and Flow Control - PWL London @ Monzo
**Tim Ruffles presents:**
*Efficient Reconciliation and Flow Control for Anti-Entropy Protocols* [https://www.cs.cornell.edu/home/rvr/papers/flowgossip.pdf](https://www.cs.cornell.edu/home/rvr/papers/flowgossip.pdf)

DSOLG January Event - Honeypots: A look at their use
## Details
**Abstract:**
A honeypot is a system for which there is no intended legitimate access, so what happens when you place three honeypots on the public Internet, in three different countries? Jonathan will explain what a honeypot is before talking through his research from July 2025, and comparing it to previous research in 2021 and 2022. You may find this year’s most popular password surprising!

Read comments of workshop participants here: [https://bit.ly/33Asprs](https://bit.ly/33Asprs)
**WHAT ARE SYSTEMIC CONSTELLATIONS?**
The Systemic Constellations method is a unique therapeutic process of exploration of the forces that move us in life. Such forces are often appearing as difficulties or a sense of being 'stuck' in life, affecting our behaviour, relationships, career, health/wellbeing, or even financial circumstances. This method provides a three-dimensional ‘map’ of one’s life as it is at present. It is a simple yet powerful way to explore entanglements and blockages in our personal life and our family history. The method brings awareness and clarity into personal challenges by focusing the client on the root cause of such difficulties. Constellations provide an opening for a positive life shift and present ways for deep healing processes to occur.
**WHAT HAPPENS IN A CONSTELLATION SESSION?**
In Constellations work the ‘client’ is referred to as the ‘Issue Holder’.
The method uses workshop participants as ‘Representatives’ to stand in for key people in the client’s life such as family members, colleagues, partners, ex-partners, etc., sometimes ‘abstract’ concepts such as an emotion, country of origin, religion, or destiny are also represented. All participants are invited to take part as Representatives. Workshop participants often report (see reviews: [https://bit.ly/33Asprs](https://bit.ly/33Asprs)) experiencing profound insights into their own lives by simply witnessing the process, regardless of how they choose to take part.
**WHY DOES THIS WORK?**
Scientific research shows that the experiences of your ancestors can determine your behaviour today and affect future generations.\*\* Recent scientific research into DNA reveals that a component named epigenetics is embedding the effect of a traumatic experience by altering the genetic structure. It means that some of our behaviour patterns can be attributed to traumatic events in our family history. This notion has always been one of the guiding principles of Systemic / Constellations Therapy, a form of work that is dedicated to exposing and dealing with issues emerging from our family system.
*“It is only now that science is catching up with what is evident in Systemic Constellations work and visible in every one of our therapy sessions; trauma in the family history directly affects future generations' behaviour"* Illi Adato MD
Our group provides a safe space where deep personal work is done and where maintaining confidentiality and respect for each other's privacy is paramount.

The Web Sustainability Guidelines
Happy New Year, Green Software Practitioners! Green Software Brighton are back for our first event of 2026 with an excellent talk from Alexander Dawson all about the Web Sustainability Guidelines.
Do you work in Web?
Are you concerned about how to minimise the environmental impacts of the sites you create?
Do you wish there were guidelines so you don't have to start from scratch?
Then this talk is for you! Alex has been integral to creating these guidelines within the W3C, the body which has produced similar standards such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) which are now internationally recognised.
The guidelines are broken down into different areas covering UX, web development, hosting & infrastructure and strategy & product management, so they cover many roles in the website creation lifecycle.
Check out the Green Software Brighton [website](https://greensoftwarebrighton.co.uk/) for links to previous talks.
Arrive from 18:00 for pizza and drinks. Event will start at 18:30. We always head for a drink and a chat locally afterwards too.

Data Engineers London: Real Time Data - January 2026
Join us at our first event of the year at [The Information Lab](https://www.theinformationlab.co.uk/) on the historic Watling Street in the City of London 🙌
We will be kicking off 2026 by delving into the topic of real-time data with our speakers - Sam, Nicoleta & Anton. We are running this event in collaboration with **[Confluent](https://www.confluent.io/)**.
**6pm:** Doors Open
**6:30pm:** Talks Start
🗣️The Speakers🗣️
***Load-In to Lights-Out: Data Engineering the World's Biggest Tours and Live Events***
***Sam Malcolm,*** ***Head of Architecture & Engineering at Centrus ([Sam's Linkedin](https://www.linkedin.com/in/sam-m-00b19a110/))***
**Sam’s** session dives into lessons from large-scale live event data systems—handling over **10 billion data points per second** for global tours like Beyoncé, Coldplay, and Glastonbury. He connects the extreme demands of real-time analytics and high-performance networking to modern cloud data practices, showing how the same principles of **speed, resilience, and precision** apply when designing reliable, scalable data platforms today.
***Should I Stream or Should I Join: From Regular to Delta Joins in Apache Flink***
***Anton Borisov, Principal Engineer at Fresha & Nicoleta Lazar, Senior Data Engineer at Fresha ([Anton's LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/anton-s-borisov/) , [Niloceta's LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicoleta-lazar-921a6864/))***
Joins in the streaming world are where the fun stops and the tradeoffs start. State that grows forever, latency that spikes unpredictably, watermarks that never quite behave, every Flink developer has war stories about this.
In this session, Anton Borisov and Nicoleta Lazar break down the join landscape in Apache Flink:
→ Regular joins and the state explosion problem
→ Interval joins: when they work, when they don't
→ Temporal joins and the versioned table dance
→ Lookup joins: the escape hatch and its hidden costs
→ Delta joins: the new kid and how Fluss enables them, and why it matters
Talks finish by **8pm** and there will be a break between the talks. Afterwards, we may head to a pub to continue chatting.

GenAI UK #16 Scaling AI Teams & Reducing Toil in Security - Incident.io
Hello and welcome to our next **GenAI UK in-person event**, delivered **in collaboration with [Data & AI Leaders](https://www.meetup.com/data-and-ai-leaders-uk/)**[.](https://www.meetup.com/data-and-ai-leaders-uk/)
This session brings together engineers, ML practitioners, data and platform teams, product leaders, and technologists who are building and operating generative AI systems in real-world environments, alongside senior practitioners responsible for scaling those capabilities inside organisations.
This collaborative session focuses on what happens when GenAI moves beyond experimentation, exploring how AI capabilities are built, scaled, and operated in production, and how teams reduce operational toil while maintaining security, reliability, and delivery velocity.
Our meetups are friendly, welcoming, and practitioner-led, creating space for the community to learn from real systems, real teams, and real trade-offs.
This session will include technical and experience-led talks, Q&A, and open discussion with members of the GenAI UK community.

**Session Title: How We Detected Toil among 36,000 Changes**
How much engineering effort is spent on work that doesn’t add real value? In this talk, Dylan shares how nearly 37,000 infrastructure changes were analysed to quantify toil, identify safe automation opportunities, and reduce manual effort using data-driven models and AI-supported approval workflows.
**Speaker: [Rory Malcolm](https://www.linkedin.com/in/rory-m-m/), Product Engineer at Incident.io**

DevOps Columbus January: Learn Infrastructure-as-Code Through Minecraft
## Details
\#\# Learn Infrastructure\-as\-Code \(the FUN Way\) — Through Minecraft 🎮☁️
**Joint Meetup: DevOps Columbus - Azure CBUS - Columbus HashiCorp User Group**
What if learning Terraform and Infrastructure-as-Code didn’t feel like a whitepaper… but more like a game?
Join us for a joint DevOps Columbus, Azure CBUS and Columbus HashiCorp User Group meetup where **Mark Tinderholt** \(Principal Architect\, Microsoft Azure \| HashiCorp Ambassador \| “The Azure Terraformer”\) shows how **Minecraft** can be used as a surprisingly powerful way to understand real-world Infrastructure-as-Code concepts.
In this session, Mark will demonstrate how Terraform and Azure can be used to provision, configure, and manage Minecraft servers—while teaching the same patterns you’d use for production cloud infrastructure.
\#\#\# What we’ll cover
* Infrastructure-as-Code fundamentals using **Terraform**
* Provisioning real infrastructure on **Azure**
* Applying **IaC best practices** (immutability, repeatability, versioning)
* How playful environments like Minecraft make complex concepts *click*
* Why learning through experimentation beats click-ops every time
\#\#\# Who should attend
* Developers, platform engineers, and cloud engineers
* Terraform users (new or experienced)
* Anyone curious about Infrastructure-as-Code but tired of boring examples
* Minecraft fans who want to see it used in a totally unexpected way
No prior Minecraft experience required—just curiosity and a willingness to learn infrastructure the fun way.
Come for the blocks, stay for the Terraform. 🧱➡️📐

Free in-person event: Take Control of Your Mental Health
It’s time to take control of your mental health. How do you get rid of stress, anxiety and uncertainty? These emotions are buried deep in your reactive mind. Find out what the reactive mind is, and in the process find yourself.
Have you ever suffered from a traumatic experience, a deep loss or been through a painful breakup? Has your ability to communicate suffered as a result? And after that, even though you "moved on" did you find that things were never quite the same? Have you ever looked at childhood photos, or reminisced your early life and wondered where that happiness and spark went?
Are your emotions out of your own control? Have you ever felt, even if you aren’t aware of it, that possibly you are getting in your own way of your happiness and success? How does this affect your self-confidence?
Find out what is at the root of all stress, anxiety, depression and self-doubt. Find out how and why you hold yourself back from achieving your goals and having the life you have dreamed of. As soon as you learn what is at the root of these unwanted conditions, you’ll see it is something you can DO something about. You will not be labeled or categorized at this MeetUp.
