Hello everyone, Welcome to this new beach volleyball openplay at Zürich Buchlern 🤗 During this event, you’ll have the chance to meet new people, play friendly matches and learn the basic techniques, if you wish. This event is aimed at everyone that has never played before or a long time ago and is not sure to be able to pass the ball properly over the net or to someone. If you think you're comfortable playing, I invite you to join the advanced events of Marius: [https://www.meetup.com/meetup-group-avsypajv/.](https://www.meetup.com/meetup-group-avsypajv/.) **Tips:** \- Bring a water bottle \(there's a drinking fountain next to the courts\) \- Bring **sunglasses**, sunscreen and a cap \- The courts can usually be watered\, except in rare cases \- so it's good to bring suitable socks if it's hot **Practical details and participation conditions:** \- A small contribution is required for court rental and other organisational expenses\, please pay before the event via TWINT at \+41784053495 by **writing your name and date of the event** or cash the day of the event. \- For any inquiries\, please **only message me on Meetup** \- Please only sign up through Meetup for an easier organisation \- Please cancel at least 24 hours in advance if you can’t make it\, so others can sign up or I can reschedule the session \- If you don't cancel and do not show\, cover your share to keep it fair for everyone\. \- If it's raining\, the event will be cancelled as it's difficult to book 2 indoor beach courts\. **Price per person:** CHF 6.5 **!No shows!** Lately, there has been quite some no-shows. Therefore, I remind you to sign out 24 hours before the event if you're not sure to come. So that people in the waiting list can join instead. The court is not free, any no-show means wasted cost. In case of a no-show and no payment, I have no choice but to impeach you from signing up again by excluding you from the group 😣

Very few people have signed up for my recent meetups. Because of that, I’m going to host a very simple meetup this time: sitting at Oberer Letten and planning our next hiking experience for June. Bring your swimwear, maybe it will be warm enough to swim. The goal of this meetup is to have an event where we definitely get a few people together, which I can publish, and where everyone has fun. And of course: good conversations and sunshine!

In this session we'll explore strategies to protect our codebases through unit and integration testing, documentation, and code review along with additional ways of providing context and guard rails to our AI agents as they carry out the work we've assigned them to do. By the time we're done, you'll have a firm grasp of the problem and understand some helpful options for protecting your codebase from vibe coding mishaps getting YOLOed into prod. **YouTube Link** TBD
