Sono proprietario di un bar e dispongo di un tavolo da biliardo semi-professionale. Sto creando un gruppo WhatsApp di giocatori amatoriali di biliardo americano pool/carambola, per la maggior parte debuttanti. Cerco persone disposte a unirsi al gruppo per giocare e divertirsi nel tempo libero, il pomeriggio oppure la sera in ogni giorno. Per stimolare l'impegno di ogni giocatore, abbiamo pattuito che il vincitore di ogni "mini-torneo" organizzato nei vari giorni giochi gratis e non paghi la tariffa di tempo per il periodo di gioco (un'ora di gioco costa 10€, ma viene di volta in volta frazionata in base al periodo di gioco effettivo). Il locale si trova in zona nord di Milano, stazione Greco-Pirelli, università Bicocca. Chiunque dovesse essere davvero interessato a partecipare e unirsi al mio gruppo, non esiti a contattarmi. Cerco persone serie e disposte solamente a divertirsi, senza puntare mazzette grazie mille. Antonio

### L’innovazione open source come driver strategico per l’impresa Un’intera giornata dedicata all’analisi dei trend che stanno ridefinendo le infrastrutture enterprise e l’intero ecosistema tecnologico. Dalla sicurezza della software supply chain alla scalabilità dei dati fino all’integrazione dell’IA generativa, l’open source rappresenta oggi il pilastro fondamentale per il prossimo decennio di evoluzione digitale. I Canonical Days sono eventi gratuiti progettati per IT leader, architetti e decision-maker focalizzati sulla modernizzazione dello stack tecnologico. Attraverso keynote di alto profilo, sessioni tecniche e il confronto con esperti del settore, verranno delineate le strategie necessarie per rendere la roadmap aziendale resiliente e competitiva. ## Focus e obiettivi L’evento analizza i pilastri fondamentali delle infrastrutture moderne, trasformando la visione tecnologica in un piano operativo concreto: * Architetture Cloud: Analisi delle soluzioni per la migrazione da sistemi proprietari, cloud repatriation e adozione di piattaforme aperte per garantire controllo operativo, efficienza e libertà dai vincoli dei singoli vendor. * Scalabilità dei dati e innovazione AI: Dall’ottimizzazione dei database all’AI inference, un approfondimento su come accelerare la trasformazione basata sull’intelligenza artificiale all’interno dei processi organizzativi. * Sicurezza della software supply chain: Integrazione dell’innovazione tecnologica senza compromettere sicurezza e conformità. Focus sull’adozione di piattaforme affidabili e cataloghi open source certificati per la mitigazione dei rischi e l’ottimizzazione del time-to-market. ## L’iniziativa rappresenta un’importante occasione per acquisire insight strategici e favorire il networking tra peer e la leadership di Canonical. | Giugno 11 2026 | Canonical Meetup | | | -------------- | ---------------- | --- | | 09:15 - 10:00 | Registrazione e Benvenuto | | | 10:00 - 10:30 | Infrastruttura Open Source e Cloud Sovrano | | | 10:30 - 11:00 | Sovereign cloud infrastructure: un caso studio | | | 11:00 - 11:30 | Sicurezza e Compliance con Ubuntu Pro | | | 11:30 - 12:00 | Coffee break | | | 12:00 - 12:30 | Data Solutions | | | 12:30 - 13:00 | Kubernetes, Containers e Cloud Native Infra | | | 13:00 - 14:00 | Pranzo e networking | | Oggi l’open source non è più una semplice alternativa, ma un requisito fondamentale per la resilienza operativa.

**Produzione, diffusione e apprendimento nell'era della GenAI.** L'intelligenza artificiale sta ridefinendo in profondità tre pilastri della conoscenza. Nel campo dell'informazione, si assiste a una trasformazione delle tecniche persuasive che supera la propaganda tradizionale, aprendo la strada a forme di iper-suasione sempre più sofisticate e personalizzate. Sul fronte educativo, i modelli consolidati di apprendimento vengono messi in discussione da nuovi paradigmi che rischiano di alterare o addirittura cancellare competenze cognitive acquisite nel tempo. Infine, la creatività si trova davanti a una rivoluzione silenziosa: chiunque può oggi autoprodurre contenuti artistici, sollevando interrogativi profondi sul significato stesso di autenticità e originalità. L'evento si propone come spazio di riflessione critica su questi fenomeni, per comprenderne le implicazioni e immaginare risposte consapevoli. *Intervengono:* * **Livia Viganò** \- COO & Co\-founder Factanza Media * **Floriano Bollettini** \- Managing Director Italia Albert School * **Giacomo Zanotti** \- Assegnista di ricerca in filosofia della scienza\, Politecnico di Milano *Modera:* **Karen Nahum** \- Chief Marketing e Digital Officer Hearst Italia

Sei un remote worker? Uno studente? Un freelance? Ti serve un luogo calmo dove lavorare senza distrazioni, senza pressione, e allo stesso tempo socializzare? Remote Circle è una routine di lavoro condivisa e silenziosa. L’atmosfera è essenziale: tavoli condivisi, ritmo lento, concentrazione naturale. Si lavora in autonomia, ma non da soli. Rimani il tempo che ti serve: l’incontro è flessibile, discreto, operativo. Remote Circle non è un workshop e non è coworking. È un appuntamento leggero, replicabile, pensato per creare continuità senza esposizione.

## 🤝 Host Information A co-hosted event by ProductTank Columbus & Women in Product Columbus 💡 About the Workshop AI adoption is stalling across organizations — not because of a lack of motivation or tools, but because it's fundamentally a behavior design challenge. This hands-on workshop applies proven Behavior Design models and methods to help you move from a vague organizational wish to boost AI adoption to 3-5 concrete, testable interventions you can act on starting tomorrow. Whether you're a product manager, on a product team, or just someone trying to get AI to actually stick at work, you'll leave with a clear picture of what's worth focusing on, what to ignore, and how to drive real, sustained adoption — no guesswork required. 🛠️ What to Bring Laptop: Fully charged and ready to go. AI Assistant: Have your favorite AI assistant pulled up. (Dom will be using Claude, but feel free to use whichever assistant you prefer!) 🍕 Logistics & Perks Food & Drink: Pizza and drinks provided! Parking: Plenty of free spaces available on-site. ###

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!

**The Behavior Gap: Where Products Win or Lose** Teams today have more data than ever, and yet many still struggle to understand why customers adopt, engage with, or abandon their products. Teams sprint, ship faster, and chase more signals… all while metrics stall and confidence drops. The missing piece isn’t more data. It’s often the behavioral insight between the metrics, explaining why the numbers move in the first place. Dashboards can tell you what customers did, but understanding why they did it (and how to influence what they do next) requires a deeper blend of insights. This session is about closing that gap. Drawing from real-world experience designing and scaling products as [ZoCo Design](https://zocodesign.com/)’s CEO, [Lacey](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) will share how to cut through the noise and identify the insights that actually change behavior—moving people, and moving metrics. You’ll learn: * Why understanding customer behavior is a quant and qual challenge * How to spot the signals that actually predict behavior change * Where AI accelerates insight, and where it creates distraction * How to get meaningfully closer to customers, without adding more tools This talk reframes how to evaluate performance and identify what levers actually improve it, helping your team to make smarter bets with greater confidence. Every meaningful outcome is driven by behavior change. And when you know how to design for behavior, you stop guessing, and start building things that work. **About Our Speaker** [Lacey Picazo](https://www.linkedin.com/in/laceypicazo/) is the Founder and CEO of ZoCo, a healthcare product studio that turns complex, high-stakes ideas into products that drive real-world adoption. She partners with healthcare organizations to uncover critical care delivery insights, focus product strategy through behavior design, and build solutions that patients and providers actually use.
