Culture Exchange

👋🏻 Hi everyone! I'm here with some exciting news. I'm launching a social project to connect people so we can grow together! ✨ The main idea: We meet in cozy spots with tasty food (different ones each time) to discuss interesting topics in English. Discussion topics: • Psychology • Philosophy • Relationships • Biology • History • Sociology • Science • Technology • Politics • Business • Finance 🗺️ How the meetups work: Stage 1. The Gathering. Usually at 4:00 PM in a park or city center. Stage 2. The Move. We walk together to a chosen cafe or restaurant. Stage 3. The Discussion. We pick a topic to kickstart the conversation. Stage 4. The Wrap-up. Around 7:00 PM, we start winding down and heading home. (Duration: \~3 hours) \* For those who are shy: In my experience, 80% of the tension and nervousness usually fades away within the first 15 minutes of conversation. 💌 Come join us!

Orquestando Agentes de IA: Del Spec al Deploy con un Flujo de Trabajo Profesional ¿Y si pudieras convertir una idea en una aplicación funcional, testeada y desplegada en la nube — todo orquestando agentes de IA con un flujo de trabajo profesional? En este workshop vamos a ir más allá del "vibe coding". Vas a aprender a trabajar con agentes de IA usando metodologías reales de ingeniería de software como Spec-Driven Development y Behavior-Driven Development (BDD), donde primero definimos qué queremos construir y cómo se debe comportar — y luego dejamos que los agentes generen, iteren y validen el código por nosotros. Pero no nos quedamos en el código. Vamos a cerrar el ciclo completo integrando herramientas de infraestructura y CI/CD con GitHub CLI (gh) y Google Cloud CLI (gcloud) para que tu aplicación no solo funcione en local, sino que llegue a producción.

Hoy no basta con tener presencia digital: los negocios y las marcas personales necesitan comunicar con claridad, generar confianza y aparecer donde está la atención de las personas. En esta charla aprenderemos cómo usar Edits para crear videos cortos, dinámicos y estratégicos para redes sociales, sin necesidad de ser editor profesional. Veremos cómo transformar ideas, servicios, productos o contenidos de marca en piezas audiovisuales que conecten con la audiencia, refuercen el posicionamiento y ayuden a mover a la acción. Una sesión práctica para emprendedores, profesionales independientes y creadores que quieren aprovechar mejor el video para contar lo que hacen, mostrar su valor y construir una marca más visible en redes sociales.

Inspired by our successful events like "Saturday Mornings @ East Market" and other "Pot Luck in the Park" lunches, this gathering promises to be a blend of fun conversations, language exchange, and cultural insights, all while sharing wonderful foods with each other. **Please bring a dish to share and anything you would like to drink.** We will provide plates, plastic silverware and napkins. So, come hungry and ready to chat!

We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able! Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!
