Hands-On with jj: A Git-Compatible Version Control System
Tired of `git rebase` conflicts? Wish you could edit your commit history without fear? Join us for a hands-on introduction where we'll cover some \`jj\` basics and get to use it in action!
\`jj\` is a modern version control system that's compatible with Git but designed from the ground up to be: simpler and easier, but also more powerful ! Pretty bold claim, right ?
In this hands-on session, we'll explore:
* What jj is and why developers are excited about it
* Basic jj commands and how they compare to Git
* Setting up and using jj with Git repositories
* (yes, you can use it on your existing projects!)
* (and, no, the rest of your team doesn't have to adopt it!!)
* Core workflows: creating commits, viewing history, and making changes
* A quick look at what makes jj different (automatic commits, simpler history editing)
**What to bring:**
* Your laptop (ideally with \`jj\` [installed](https://docs.jj-vcs.dev/latest/install-and-setup/) )
* Curiosity about alternative version control workflows
**Who should attend:** Developers of all levels who use Git regularly and are curious about modern alternatives. Whether you're frustrated with Git's complexity or just interested in exploring new tools, this workshop will hopefully entice you to try out something new that will spice up your daily workflows!
No prior jj experience required—just familiarity with basic version control concepts.
**Sponsors**
Our sponsors for this meetup are [Yodeck](https://www.yodeck.com/) \- who are not only kindly providing the venue\, free of charge\, but who will also treat us to some snacks / drinks for the networking session after the meetup\!
Do stick around and say hi!

Agile in Greece: Research Findings & Key Insights
Based on my MBA research, this talk explores the current state of Agile adoption in Greek organizations. Drawing on survey data from executives and Agile team members, it examines how Agile is practiced today, which frameworks are in use, what success looks like and where things quietly start to break down. The research reveals a growing gap between how leaders believe Agile is working and how teams actually experience it. Using a data-driven lens, we explore the real challenges of scaling Agile in Greece, the underestimated role of culture and people, and what it takes to build truly adaptive, innovation-driven organizations.
While the data was collected in Greece, the findings are compared with some of Europe’s most mature Agile environments, particularly Denmark and the Netherlands. This comparison places the Greek ecosystem in a broader EU context, distinguishing local constraints from universal Agile challenges and highlighting what can realistically be adapted.
**What you’ll take away**
* Uncover critical perception gaps, such as the ‘Culture Blind Spot’, that are holding teams back without leadership realizing it.
* See the shared roadmap executives and teams actually agree on for scaling Agile beyond pilots and isolated successes
* Identify the human factors currently undervalued, contributing to stalled innovation in the majority of organisations and talent loss eventually.
* Learn how to move beyond the ‘delivery’ toward healthier, more resilient organizations
This session is ideal for leaders, managers, Agile practitioners, and anyone interested in the future of work and organizational agility.

Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit - Barret Blake
**Important time note:** Please plan on arriving between 5:30 and 6:00 as the elevators lock after 6 and you'll need to message us and we'll need to come get you.
The building address is 4450 Bridge Park
The entrance is 6620 Mooney St, Suite 400
You will need to scan your ID at the door to get a visitor badge.
**Abstract**
*Spec-Driven Development with GitHub Spec-Kit: From Intent to Implementation*
Spec-driven development flips the traditional workflow on its head: instead of code being the source of truth, the specification becomes the backbone of design, collaboration, and delivery. In this session, we’ll explore how GitHub Spec-Kit enables teams to treat specifications as first-class artifacts—living documents that drive architecture, implementation, and verification.
You’ll learn how Spec-Kit helps teams clearly express intent using structured, version-controlled specs that live alongside code. We’ll walk through a practical workflow that starts with defining system behavior and constraints, then progressively refines those specs into testable, automatable outcomes. Along the way, we’ll show how specs can reduce ambiguity, improve cross-functional collaboration, and make design decisions explicit before a single line of production code is written.
This talk will cover:
--What spec-driven development is (and what it isn’t)
--How GitHub Spec-Kit fits into modern developer workflows
--Using specs to align product, engineering, and AI-assisted development
--Real-world examples of turning specs into implementations with confidence
Whether you’re building greenfield systems, integrating AI into your stack, or trying to reduce costly rework, spec-driven development offers a scalable way to move faster without sacrificing clarity. Attendees will leave with concrete patterns and a clear mental model for adopting GitHub Spec-Kit in their own projects.

Philosophy of Friendship: What are the bases of "friendship"?
As you may or may not know--I didn't until late last year--Aristotle wrote extensively on "friendship" in the Nicomachean Ethics. After 69 years the concept of friendship still creates questions and uncertainty. I had close friends in high school and for a few years after high school but our interests diverged and people moved all over the country so it was hard to maintain connections.
* So if I/you haven't talked with a friend for several years, are you still friends? Are we friends who meet at Drunken Philosophy or Omnipresent Atheists?
* Can you be friends with someone with whom you have virulently divergent political views? Sartre and Camus could not.
* Aristotle regarded friendship as essential to a good life, not merely an added "bonus." Do you agree?
* In the Nicomachean Ethics (Books VIII and IX), he claims that wealth and power are meaningless without friends. Trump has wealth and power but seems to have no real friends, but wealth and power seem meaningful to him in perverted ways. Can you have meaning in your life without friends?
* Do men and women view and maintain friendships in different ways?
* Aristotle categorizes friendship into three types, based on what forms the bond:
* **Utility**: Based on mutual benefit, but this type is fragile and ends when the usefulness ceases.
* **Pleasure**: Based on shared enjoyment (e.g., humor, hobbies). Common among youth but fades as interests change.
* **Virtue (The "Complete" Friendship)**: Based on mutual respect for each other's character and goodness. You wish good for the other for their sake, not yours.
* **Key Principles of "True" (Virtuous) Friendship:**
* **Permanence**: Virtuous friendships last a lifetime whereas those based on utility and pleasure are fleeting.
* **Reciprocity**: Requires mutual goodwill; secret or unreciprocated affection does not qualify.
* **The "Second Self"**: A true friend is "another self"—their virtue helps you understand and improve yourself.
* **Time and Intimacy**: Deep ("complete") friendships are few, built on time and shared experiences.
* **Self-Love and Friendship:**
* Good friendship starts with being a friend to yourself.
* They distinguish shallow egoism (chasing honors) from real self-love (pursuing virtue).
* A virtuous person’s pleasant self-company allows them to be a stable, good friend to others.
* Aristotle argues that one's social circle ultimately reflects one's character—a view with striking relevance today. Well--the Drunken Philosophy social circle certainly reflects good character!
